In contrast to previous analyses which were unable to optimize the QCD sum-rules for certain $J^{PC}$, recent work has shown that inclusion of dimension six condensates stabilizes the hybrid sum-rules and permits reliable mass predictions. In this work we have investigated the effects of the dimension six condensates on the remaining channels. After performing the QCD sum-rule analysis, we update the mass spectra of charmonium and bottomonium hybrids with exotic and non-exotic quantum numbers. We identify that the negative-parity states with $J^{PC}=(0, 1, 2)^{-+}, 1^{--}$ form the lightest hybrid supermultiplet while the positive-parity states with $J^{PC}=(0, 1)^{+-}, (0, 1, 2)^{++}$ belong to a heavier hybrid supermultiplet, confirming the supermultiplet structure found in other approaches. The hybrid with $J^{PC}=0^{--}$ has a much higher mass which may suggest a different excitation of the gluonic field compared to other channels. In agreement with previous results, we find that the $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ charmonium hybrid is substantially heavier than the X(3872), which seems to preclude a pure charmonium hybrid interpretation for this state.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-09-14T06:05:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "mass spectrum", "heavy quarkonium hybrid operators", "pure charmonium hybrid interpretation", "qcd sum-rule", "heavier hybrid supermultiplet" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Springer", "journal": "Journal of High Energy Physics", "year": 2013, "month": "Sep", "volume": 2013, "pages": 19 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1228525, "adsabs": "2013JHEP...09..019C" } } }
