Lattice QCD studies of standard 3Q baryons Λ(1405) has been studied in the conventional lattice QCD framework in Y. Nemoto et al., PRD68, 094505(2003) already published ones W. Melnitchouk et al., PRD67, 114506 (2003) F.X. Lee et al., NPB(PS)119, 296(2003) [in proceedings of LATTICE2002] T. Burch et al., hep-lat/0604019. The mass spectra of low-lying baryons are reproduced rather good except for Λ(1405) A significant discrepancy for Λ(1405) (Mass is overestimated more than 300 MeV) This discrepancy is often attributed to two possibilities: Chiral property may be important. Λ(1405) may not be a conventional 3Q baryon We are interested in this possibility !

★ Two pictures of Λ(1405) Λ(1405) JP=1/2(-), I=0, S=-1, Q=0 m=1406.5±4.0 MeV Γ =50±2 MeV 3 quark picture 5 quark picture conventional 3Q [SU(3)f singlet] p-wave baryon (uds) exotic “5Q” Λ(1405) was pointed out to be a 5Q object long time ago. [“bound state” of N and Kbar] (uud)(s ubar)... (s-wave) The prev. lattice QCD calc. ⇔ 3Q picture: quenched approx. prevents qqbar pair creations in the intermediate state. ⇒ Once it is created as a 3Q state, it propagates essentially as a 3Q state. 35 MeV is of typical size for a binding energy of a hadronic molecule 35 MeV qqbar pair creation Examples of hadronic molecule candidates a0(980), f0(980) [K and Kbar] binding energy: 20 MeV Θ+(1540) [N, π and K] binding energy: 40 MeV

★ Two pictures of Λ(1405) (cont’d) Our aim: To investigate which picture is dominant for Λ(1405), we compare “5Q” calculation with “3Q” calculation For 3Q calculation, we use 3Q operator For 5Q calculation, we use 5Q operator (3Q operator) 3Q component is domant in quenched QCD (5Q operator) 5Q component is dominant in quenched QCD ※ We neglect the contribution from the disconnected diagram due to calculational cost interpretational “simplicity”.

There is a serious obstacle in 5Q calculation ★ Spectrum in Λ(1405) channel ３５ MeV The gap between Λ(1405) and NKbar is only 35MeV ! A brute force way to solve this is to adopt a significantly finer lattice discretization. (This is unrealistic !) It is quite difficult to distinguish one peak from the other, if their separation is only 35 MeV or so. Recently, we find a way out of this obstacle: Hybrid Boundary Condition(HBC) proposed for Θ+(1540)

Spatial BC L～２fm is assumed ★ Conventional BC Periodic BC(PBC) ★ twised BC Hybrid BC(HBC) anti PBC PBC L～２fm is assumed ★ Spatial momenta of N and Kbar cannot vanish ! ⇒ NKbar threshold is raised by ～200 MeV ★ Λ(1405) remains unchanged ! ⇒ gap is extended to ～200 MeV Still we have to distinguish Λ(1405) from Σπ

Spatial BC (cont’d) (L～２fm is assumed) ★ Conventional BC Periodic BC(PBC) PBC ★ Further twisted BC “Hybrid BC” ( “HBC” ) anti PBC PBC ★ “ HBC ” can isolate Λ(1405) ★ comments: HBC is a sound BC from every point of view. However, ”HBC” is valid only in the limit where qqbar anihilation diagram can be neglected.

Instead, we pick up several points in the range ms ≦ mu, md ≦ 2ms The results are extrapolated to the physical quark mass region (chiral extrapolation)

Numerical Results(effective mass plot) ★ mu=md=ms case meff(t) serves as a “weighted average” of the energies of the states contributing to the time-slice t. Σπ and N Kbar thresholds raised by ``HBC’’ 5Q state is created at time-slice 0. “ “ N,Kbar,Σ, π cannot be in their rest frame threshold is raised plateau This region is saturated by the lowest lying state. ``HBC’’ data appear below the raised thresholds. ⇒ This is not a scattering state of N and Kbar, but a compact 5Q state. More statistics is needed to stabilize the plateau.

Numerical results (chiral extrapolation) N,Kbar,Σ and π cannot be in their rest frame with ``HBC’’ 5Q data(“HBC”) threshold is raised Σπ and N Kbar thresholds raised by ``HBC’’ m(N) + m(Kbar) 5Q data(PBC) 3Q data m(Σ) + m(π) chiral extrap. The results are extrapolated to the physical quark mass region. (chiral extrapolation) ★ The chiral extrapolation of 3Q state m3Q = 1.79(8) GeV ★ The chiral extrapolation of 5Q state(``HBC’’) m5Q = 1.63(7) GeV ～ m(N)+m(Kbar) [on the lattice] The state appears below the threshold by 150-300 MeV. ⇒ NOT scattering state, but compact 5Q state. ★ 5Q component is dominant in Λ(1405). s-wave 5Q can become lighter than p-wave 3Q in the light quark mass retion ★ A level inversion of 3Q and 5Q takes place at mπ2～0.25GeV2. After that, 5Q state is lighter than 3Q state in the light quark mass region

Summary We have studied Λ(1405) with anisotropic lattice QCD employing NKbar type 5Q op. (quenched lattice QCD, neglecting disconnected diagram) We adopted ``HBC’’ (a spatial BC where N,Kbar, Σ,π have spatial momentum ～500 MeV), and find a compact 5Q state for Λ(1405). The 5Q state appears significantly below the raised threshold (Σπ and N Kbar) ⇒ This 5Q state is NOT scattering state, but a compact 5Q state. This 5Q state is lighter than the 3Q state in the light quark mass region. ⇒ 5Q state is dominant in Λ(1405). Next things to do More statistics. What is the nature of this 5Q state ? Further investigation is required. Contribution from disconnected diagram mixing with 3Q the cross crrelator calculations genuine 5Q loosly bound N and Kbar
