Event details
The majority of known hadrons in the low-energy QCD spectrum are resonances observed in multi-particle scattering processes. First-principles determinations of the properties of these unstable hadrons are a central goal of lattice QCD. Significant progress has been made in the development, implementation, and application of theoretical tools that connect finite-volume lattice QCD quantities to scattering amplitudes, enabling the determination of the masses and widths of a variety of hadronic resonances. In this talk, I will discuss recent advances in lattice QCD studies of meson-baryon resonances, including the $\Lambda(1405)$, baryon-baryon systems such as the deuteron, and exotic three-hadron states such as the doubly charmed tetraquark.
About Particle Physics Theory seminars
The Particle Physics Theory seminar is a weekly series of talks reflecting the diverse interests of the group. Topics include analytic and numerical calculations based on the Standard Model of elementary particle physics, theories exploring new physics, as well as more formal developments in gauge theories and gravity..
