Bound States of (Anti-)Scalar-Quarks in SU(3)c Lattice QCD
Abstract
Light scalar-quarks φ (colored scalar particles or idealized diquarks) and their color-singlet hadronic states are studied with quenched SU(3)c lattice QCD in terms of mass generation. We investigate ``scalar-quark mesons'' φ φ and ``scalar-quark baryons'' φφφ as the bound states of scalar-quarks φ. We also investigate the bound states of scalar-quarks φ and quarks , i.e., φ , φ and φφ, which we name ``chimera hadrons''. All the new-type hadrons including φ are found to have a large mass due to large quantum corrections by gluons, even for zero bare scalar-quark mass mφ=0 at a-1 1 GeV. We conjecture that all colored particles generally acquire a large effective mass due to dressed gluon effects.
