Title: b 1 resonance in coupled π ω , π ϕ scattering from lattice QCD

Abstract

We present the first lattice QCD calculation of coupled $$\pi\omega$$ and $$\pi\phi$$ scattering, incorporating coupled $$S$$ and $$D$$-wave $$\pi\omega$$ in $J^P=1^+$. Finite-volume spectra in three volumes are determined via a variational analysis of matrices of two-point correlation functions, computed using large bases of operators resembling single-meson, two-meson and three-meson structures, with the light-quark mass corresponding to a pion mass of $$m_\pi \approx 391$$ MeV. Utilising the relationship between the discrete spectrum of finite-volume energies and infinite-volume scattering amplitudes, we find a narrow axial-vector resonance ($$J^{PC}=1^{+-}$$), the analogue of the $$b_1$$ meson, with mass $$m_{R}\approx1380$$ MeV and width $$\Gamma_{R}\approx 91$$ MeV. The resonance is found to couple dominantly to $$S$$-wave $$\pi\omega$$, with a much-suppressed coupling to $$D$$-wave $$\pi\omega$$, and a negligible coupling to $$\pi\phi$$ consistent with the `OZI rule'. No resonant behavior is observed in $$\pi\phi$$, indicating the absence of a putative low-mass $$Z_s$$ analogue of the $$Z_c$$ claimed in $$\pi J/\psi$$. In order to minimally present the contents of a unitary three-channel scattering matrix, we introduce an $$n$$-channel generalization of the traditional two-channel Stapp parameterization.
