Abstract

We study the charmonium spectrum in full QCD on anisotropic lattices generated by Hadron Spectrum Collaboration. We adopt a large basis of interpolating operators to extract the excited charmonium states using the variational method. A detailed spectrum of excited charmonium mesons in many JPC channels is obtained. Some exotic hybrid states ( with JPC = 0+ , 1+ , 2+) are also studied.

Funding

We thank our colleagues within the Hadron Spectrum Collaboration. Chroma [20] and QUDA [21, 22] were used to perform this work on the Lonsdale cluster maintained by the Trinity Centre for High Performance Computing funded through grants from Science Foundation Ireland (SFI), at the SFI/HEA Irish Centre for High-End Computing (ICHEC), and at Jefferson Laboratory under the USQCD Initiative and the LQCD ARRA project. Gauge configurations were generated using resources awarded from the U.S. Department of Energy INCITE program at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the NSF Teragrid at the Texas Advanced Computer Center and the Pittsburgh Supercomputer Center, as well as at Jefferson Lab. This research was supported by the European Union under Grant Agreement number 238353 (ITN STRONGnet) and by the Science Foundation Ireland under Grant Nos. RFP-PHY-3201 and RFP-PHY-3218. CET acknowledges support from a Marie Curie International Incoming Fellowship, PIIF-GA-2010-273320, within the 7th European Community Framework Programme.
