Binding energy of the TbbT_{bb} tetraquark from lattice QCD with relativistic and nonrelativistic heavy-quark actions

This paper presents a new lattice QCD determination of the TbbT_{bb} tetraquark binding energy using relativistic heavy-quark actions, yielding results of approximately $-79$ MeV that are consistent with prior NRQCD findings but exhibit reduced magnitude due to the exclusive use of symmetric correlation matrices with local four-quark operators.

Possible Dˉ()Ξcc()\bar{D}^{(*)} \Xi_{cc}^{(*)} and Ξcc()Ξcc()\Xi_{cc}^{(*)}\Xi_{cc}^{(*)} molecules as superflavor partners of TccT_{cc}

This paper investigates the potential formation of Dˉ()Ξcc()\bar{D}^{(*)} \Xi_{cc}^{(*)} and Ξcc()Ξcc()\Xi_{cc}^{(*)}\Xi_{cc}^{(*)} molecular states as superflavor partners of the TccT_{cc} tetraquark using the one-boson exchange model, predicting numerous bound and resonant states whose mass spectra are significantly dependent on the uncertain σ\sigma coupling constant.

Thermodynamics and null-geodesic of the Kerr-Newman black hole surrounded by quintessence and a cloud of string

This paper investigates the thermodynamic properties, stability, and null-geodesic structure of a Kerr-Newman black hole surrounded by quintessence and a cloud of strings, specifically analyzing how these features are modified by the inclusion of a modified dispersion relation (MDR).

Kerr-Newman black hole surrounded by quintessence under quantum gravity effects and gravity's rainbow

This paper investigates the quantum gravity effects on particle tunneling and the thermodynamic properties of a Kerr-Newman black hole surrounded by quintessence by applying the Generalized Uncertainty Principle and gravity's rainbow framework to derive corrected Hawking temperatures, heat capacity, entropy, and equation of state parameters.
