Towards 4-quark states with 2 heavy quarks

ORAL

Abstract

We study the changes in the relativistic wave functions of quarks in a (linear) confining potential as a function of quark mass and the effect of color Coulomb contributions. Our goal is to delineate the uncertainties in phenomenological estimates of the masses of multiquark (molecular) states that are expected in QCD.
