Hadronic molecules and scattering amplitudes from the nonrelativistic quark model

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10187768
This report summarizes recent calculations of low-energy hadron-hadron scattering amplitudes in the nonrelativistic quark potential model, which assume that the scattering mechanism is a single interaction (usually OGE) followed by constituent interchange. We refer to the scattering diagrams as ``quark Born diagrams.`` For the cases chosen to the isolate this mechanism, I=2 {pi}{pi}, I=3/2 K{pi}, KN and NN, the results are usually in good agreement with experimental S-wave scattering amplitudes given standard potential-model parameters. These calculations also lead to predictions of vector-vector bounds states, one of which may be the {theta}(1710). This assignment can be tested by searches for K{bar K}{pi}{pi} and {phi}{pi}{sup 0}{gamma} decay modes of the {theta}(1710).
