| contents | We present our recent investigation on doubly bottom and bottom-strange tetraquarks in the isoscalar channel in search of a possible tetraquark bound state. The calculations are performed on four ensembles with dynamical quark fields up to the charm quark generated by the MILC Collaboration with various lattice spacings. Two volumes have been used to account for finite volume effects. Overlap action has been employed to calculate light and strange quark propagators and NRQCD formulation is utilized for heavy bottom quarks. Finite volume energy has been calculated using the variational method followed by rigorous scattering amplitude analysis à la Lüscher. We find strong evidence for a deeply bound state in the doubly bottom tetraquark channel, but no conclusive evidence for the existence of a bottom-strange tetraquark. |
