Description

The spectrum of excited hadron resonances in QCD is studied using Monte Carlo path integration techniques formulated on a large $32^3\times 256$ anisotropic space-time lattice. A large number of probe interpolating operators are used, and calculation of temporal correlations is accomplished using a stochastic method of treating the low-lying modes of quark propagation that exploits Laplacian Heaviside quark-field smearing. An effective Hamiltonian is used to interpret the finite-volume energies and determine the masses and widths of the resonances. Changes to the spectrum upon introducing a variety of tetraquark operators is investigated.
