The effect of the two-state structure around 2300 MeV can be clearly seen in the (S,I)=(0,1/2) D$\pi$, D$\eta$, and Ds{\textasciimacron}K correlation functions, while in the scalar-strange (1,0) sector, the D*s0(2317){\textpm} state lying below the DK threshold produces a depletion of the correlation function near threshold. These exotic states owe their existence to the nonperturbative dynamics of Goldstone-boson scattering off D(s). The predicted correlation functions could be experimentally measured and will shed light into the hadron spectrum, confirming that it should be viewed as more than a collection of quark model states.", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=6089), last updated on Fri, 26 Apr 2024 14:50:27 +0000", doi="10.1103/PhysRevD.108.014020", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.03107", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.108.014020" }
