Heavy quarkonium spectroscopy in pNRQCD with lattice QCD input (1211.6795v2)

Abstract: The charmonium and bottomonium mass spectra are investigated in potential nonrelativistic QCD (pNRQCD) with the heavy quark potential computed by lattice QCD simulations. The potential consists of a static potential and relativistic corrections classified in powers of the inverse of heavy quark mass m, and the effects of the O(1/m) and O(1/m^{2}) spin-orbit corrections on the mass spectra are examined systematically. The pattern of the mass spectra is found to be in fairly good agreement with experimental data, in which the O(1/m) correction gives an important contribution.
