00925njm 22002777a 4500 dc Llanes Estrada, Felipe José author General, Ignacio J. author Wang, Ping author Cotanch, Stephen R. author 2007-09-30 Highlights in the search for nonconventional (non-q.q) meson states are the π1(1400) and π1(1600) exotic candidates. Should they exist, mounting theoretical arguments suggest that they are tetraquark molecular resonances excitable by meson rescattering.We report a new tetraquark calculation within a model field theory approximation to Quantum Chromodynamics in the Coulomb gauge supporting this conjecture. We also strengthen this claim by consistentlycontrasting results with exotic state predictions for hybrid (q . qg) mesons within the same theoretical framework. Our findings confirm that molecular like configurations involving two color singlets (a resonance, not a bound state) are clearly favored over hybrid or color-exotic tetraquark meson (q . qq.q atoms) formation. Finally, to assist needed further experimental searches we document a useful off-plane correlator for establishing the structure of these exotic systems along with similar, but anticipated much narrower, states that should exist in the charmonium and bottomonium spectra. 0370-2693 10.1016/j.physletb.2007.08.015 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/50793 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2007.08.015 http://arxiv.org/abs/0707.1286 http://www.sciencedirect.com Light 1(-+) exotics: molecular resonances
