Hadron Physics QCD: are we satisfied with it? Antiproton’s potentiality The PANDA enterprise 1 Paola Gianotti

Our present knowledge of matter is the result of centuries of studies… Philosophers of ancient Greece believed it was made of 4 elements what is matter made of? Mendeleev 1869 introduced the periodic table of elements 1808 Dalton, following their weights, make a first list of elements 1963 Murray, Gell-Mann, and Zweig laid the foundation of quark model 2

Quantum Chromodynamics The QCD Lagrangian is, in principle, a complete description of the strong interaction. There is just one overall coupling constant g, and six quark-mass parameters m j for the six quark flavors But, it leads to equations that are hard to solve 3

Furthermore, we've never seen particles carrying fractional electric charge, which we nonetheless ascribe to the quarks. And certainly we haven't seen anything like gluons--massless particles mediating long-range strong forces. The Confinement So if QCD is to describe the world, it must explain why quarks and gluons cannot exist as isolated particles. That is the so-called confinement problem. None of the particles that we've actually seen appear in the formula and none of the particles that appear in the formula has ever been observed. 4

Hadron masses The elementary particles of the Standard Model gain their mass through the Higgs mechanism. However, only a few percent of the mass of the proton is due to the Higgs mechanism. The rest is created in an unknown way by the strong interaction. Glueballs would be massless without the strong interaction and their predicted masses arise solely from the strong interaction. C. Morningstar and M. Peardon, Phys. Rev. D 60, (1999) The possibility to study a whole spectrum of glueballs might therefore be the key of understanding the mechanism of mass creation by the strong interaction. 5

The chiral symmetry There is another qualitative difference between the observed reality and the world of quarks and gluons. The phenomenology indicates that if QCD is to describe the world, then the u and d quarks must have very small masses. But if u and d quarks have very small masses, then the equations of QCD possess some additional symmetry, called chiral symmetry. There is no such symmetry among the observed strongly interacting particles; they do not come in opposite-parity pairs. So if QCD is to describe the real world, the chiral symmetry must be spontaneously broken. and this mechanism is playing an important role in the process of mass generation 6

Chiral symmetry restoration The mass of light hadrons (u,d,(s)) is dominated by spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking. In the nuclear medium (ρ>0) we can restore, at least partially this symmetry. Hints of this effect have been already observed. We wants to extend these studies to Charmed mesons pionic atoms KAOS/FOPI HESR π K D vacuumnuclear medium ρ = ρ 0 π+π+ π-π- K-K- K+K+ D+D+ D-D- 25 MeV 100 MeV 50 MeV Mass modifications of mesons 7

How do we solve QCD problems? The first approach is to try to solve the equations. That's not easy. Fortunately, powerful modern computers have made it possible to calculate a few of the key predictions of QCD directly. The agreement with the measured masses is at the 10% level. The second approach is that of creating phenomenological models that are simpler to deal with, but still bear some significant resemblance to the real thing. arXiv:hep-lat/ v1 quark antiqark Meson Hybrid Glueball 8

Nowadays, QCD prediction can reach precisions at the GeV around 10 %, and also the phenomenological models are not doing better! Can we be satisfied of this accuracy? Can we be satisfied? Just a note: the Tolemaic system allowed to predict the positions of the planets with the same level of accuracy….. but it was wrong! 9

Experimental tests are needed… High statistics and high quality data are necessary to help constraining the models Different experimental techniques can be used to focus on different aspects: The selection of special working conditions or of final states helps filtering initial/final state quantum numbers; In protons-antiproton annihilations complex objects collide The interaction occurs between two beams of (anti)quarks and gluons p p p  e-e- 10

The hadron’s structure The characteristics hadrons are given only in minor part by the constituent quarks. Quarks and gluons dynamics plays a fundamental role in the definitions of hadron’s properties: mass, spin, etc… Nucleon Form Factors have been mainly studied using electromagnetic probes, but the physical diagrams can be reverted… and a complementary approach can be used Generalized Parton Distributions functions (GPDs) contain both the usual form factors and parton distributions, but in addition they include correlations between states of different longitudinal and transverse momenta. GPDs give a three-dimensional picture of the nucleon. In a similar way Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) can be crossed-studied perturbative QCDnon-perturbative QCD 18

below DD threshold all the predicted states have been detected, but there is lack of precise measurements of masses, widths and branching ratios (i.e.  c,  c (2S), h c ) Charmonium spectroscopy Charmonium energy is the transition range between perturbative and non-perturbative regime. It is the energy range where models are tuned 21

Charmonium above DD threshold This is the more obscure region: old and new measurements at electron machines seem not in agreement. On the other side several new states showed up at the B-factories for most states J PC is not well established…and 23

Open charm states Open charm sates are the QCD analogon of hydrogen atom for QED Narrow states D s0 (2317) and D s1 (2458) recently discovered at B- factories do not fit theoretical calculations. Quantum numbers for the newest states D sJ (2700) and D sJ (2880) are open At full luminosity at p momenta larger than 6.4 GeV/c PANDA will produce large numbers of DD pairs. Despite small signal/background ratio (5  ) background situation favourable because of limited phase space for additional hadrons in the same process. 25
