Dual QCD fits to the masses of the cc̅ and bb̅ systems

Abstract

We use the static potentials between heavy quarks derived from the classical approximation to the dual QCD field equations to calculate most of the low-lying states of the cc̅ and bb̅ systems. The agreement, achieved with only four parameters, two of which are roughly determined in advance, is better than 1%. The spin-orbit force cannot yet be calculated from dual QCD; if we use the Breit-Fermi form for it, all the cc̅ and bb̅ levels can be predicted. We also predict the masses of the lightest cb̅ states.
