Low-lying exotic mesons in the coupled-channel formalism

Abstract

The relativistic four-quark equations are found in the framework of the dispersion relation technique. The dynamical mixing of the four-quark amplitudes and the glueball amplitudes is considered. The approximate solutions of these equations using the method based on the extraction of leading singularities of the amplitudes are obtained. The four-quark amplitudes of exotic mesons including the quarks of three flavors (u, d, s) are calculated. The poles of these amplitudes determine the masses of the exotic mesons.
