Charmonium spectrum including higher spin and exotic states

Abstract

We study the charmonium spectrum including higher spin and exotic states. We use the Sheikholeslami-Wilson (clover) action for $N_f=2$ sea quarks as well as for the charm valence quark. In order to access excited states we apply a variational method with a basis of highly optimized operators.
