Abstract

The ground-state three-quark (3Q)potential V g .s .

3Q and the excited-state 3Q poten-tial V e .s .3Q are studied using SU(3)lattice QCD at the quenched level.For more than

300patterns of the 3Q systems,the ground-state potential V g .s .

3Q is investigated in de-tail in lattice QCD with 123×24at β=5.7and with 163×32at β=5.8,6.0.As

a result,the ground-state potential V g .s .

3Q is found to be well described with Y-ansatz

within the 1%-level deviation.From the comparison with the Q-ˉQ

potential,we ?nd the universality of the string tension as σ3Q ?σQ ˉQ and the one-gluon-exchange result as A 3Q ?1

3Q potential,although the3Q potential is responsible for the baryon properties and of great importance also for the quark-con?nement mechanism in baryons.On the ground-state3Q

potential V g.s.

3Q ,the detailed study has been recently performed,and Y-ansatz is now almost

conclusive[1,2].

In the latter half of this paper,we consider the connection between QCD and the quark model in terms of the excited-state inter-quark potential.The low-lying hadron properties, especially for baryons,can be successfully reproduced in the framework of the simple non-relativistic quark model[3],which has only quark degrees of freedom and has no gluonic modes.The non-relativistic treatment can be justi?ed by spontaneous chiral-symmetry breaking,which gives rise to a large constituent quark mass of about300MeV.On the other hand,we have no reason which supports the absence of the gluonic excitation modes in the low-lying hadron spectra.To give a solution to this mystery,we investigate the gluonic excitation modes.In spite of several lattice studies on the gluonic excitation mode in the Q-ˉQ system,the gluonic excited-state potential in the3Q system has not been investigated in

lattice QCD.We show the?rst result on the1st excited-state potential V e.s.

?xed3Q system in SU(3)lattice QCD[4].

2The ground-state3Q potential–Lattice QCD evi-dences of Y-ansatz

The Q-ˉQ potential is described by a simple form as V g.s.

We extract the static3Q potential V g.s.

3Q ,we

adopt the gauge-covariant smearing method,which enhances the ground-state overlap.For

more than300patterns of the3Q systems,we investigate V g.s.

As a result,the 3Q potential can be accurately described by the Y-ansatz form in Eq.(1)

within the 1%-level deviation.From the comparison with the Q-ˉQ

potential,we ?nd the universality of the string tension as σ3Q ?σQ ˉQ and the one-gluon-exchange result as A 3Q ?

c 0[7].However,the vibrational modes of the Y-type ?ux-tube system are

considered to be much more complicated and chaotic than those of the simple Q-ˉQ

?ux-tube,because of the possible interference among the vibrations of the three ?ux-tubes connected at the physical junction.

We investigate the 1st excited-state potential in the spatially-?xed 3Q system using lattice QCD with 163×32lattice at β=5.8for 24patterns of the 3Q systems.In Fig.2,we plot the

ground-state potential V g .s .3Q and the 1st excited-state potential V e .s .

As a remarkable fact,the lowest gluonic excitation energy ?E =V e .s .

3Q ?V g .s .3Q

is found to be about 1GeV in the hadronic scale as L min ?0.5?1.5fm.This is rather large in comparison

with the low-lying excitation energy of the quark origin.(Also for the Q-ˉQ

system,a large gluonic excitation energy is reported in recent lattice studies [7].)Such a gluonic excitation contribution would be signi?cant in the highly-excited baryons with the excitation energy above 1GeV,and the lowest hybrid baryon [8],which is described as qqqG in the valence picture,is expected to have a large mass of about 2GeV.

The large gluonic excitation energy corresponding to the ?ux-tube vibrational energy is considered to originate from the “tight”?ux-tube with a large string tension,as a result of the strong con?nement e?ect.Due to the large gluonic excitation energy ?E ?1GeV,the gluonic excitation modes are invisible in the low-lying excitations of hadrons,which can be considered as a reason of the success of the simple quark model without gluonic modes [4].(See Fig.3.)
