Abstract
We compute the composition of the bottomonium states [including ] and the new resonance reported by Belle in terms of quarkonium and meson-meson components. We use a recently developed novel approach utilizing lattice QCD string breaking potentials for the study of resonances. This approach is based on the diabatic extension of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and the unitary emergent wave method and allows us to compute the poles of the matrix. We focus on bottomonium wave bound states and resonances, where the Schrödinger equation is a set of coupled differential equations. One of the channels corresponds to a confined heavy quark-antiquark pair , and the others correspond to pairs of heavy-light mesons. In a previous study, only one meson-meson channel was considered. Now, we also include the closed strangeness channel , extending our formalism significantly to have a more realistic description of bottomonium. We confirm the new Belle resonance as a dynamical meson-meson resonance with around 76% meson-meson content. Moreover, we identify and as states with both sizable quarkonium and meson-meson contents. With these results, we contribute to the clarification of ongoing controversies in the vector bottomonium spectrum.
