Deploying heavier $\eta$ meson states: configurational entropy hybridizing AdS/QCD

TL;DR

This paper uses AdS/QCD and differential configurational entropy to predict and analyze the mass spectrum of higher η meson states, extending beyond known experimental data.

Contribution

It introduces configurational-entropic Regge-like trajectories to relate η meson excitation numbers with their masses and DCE, predicting new mesonic states.

Findings

Derived mass spectrum for η mesons beyond known states

Established DCE-based trajectories linking excitation number and mass

Compared predictions with existing experimental candidates

Abstract

The meson family of $\eta$ pseudoscalars is studied in the context of the AdS/QCD correspondence and the differential configurational entropy (DCE). For it, two forms of configurational-entropic Regge-like trajectories are engendered, relating the $\eta$ mesonic states excitation number to both their experimental mass spectrum in the Particle Data Group (PDG) and the DCE as well. Hence, the mass spectrum of $\eta$ pseudoscalar mesonic states, beyond the already detected states $\eta(550)$, $\eta'(958)$, $\eta(1295)$, $\eta(1405)$, $\eta(1475)$, $\eta(1760)$, $\eta(2225)$, and $\eta(2320)$, is derived for any excitation number. The three first ulterior members of this family are then analyzed and also compared to existing candidates in PDG.
