Description
I will discuss scalar and tensor charmonium resonances determined using lattice QCD. Working at $m_\pi\approx 391$ MeV, more than 200 finite-volume energy levels are computed and these are used in extensions of the Lüscher formalism to determine infinite volume scattering amplitudes. Working in the approximation where charm-annihilation is forbidden, the ground state $\chi_{c0}(1P)$ and $\chi_{c2}(1P)$ states are stable. Below 4100 MeV we find a single $\chi_{c0}$ and a single $\chi_{c2}$ resonance, both strongly-coupled to several decay channels consisting of pairs of open-charm mesons. Both resonances are found on the closest unphysical sheet just below $4000$ MeV with a widths of $\approx$ 60 MeV. The largest couplings are to the closed $D^\ast\bar{D}^\ast$ channels in $S$-wave, but several open-charm channels are also found to be large and significant in both cases.
