Weak decays of heavy hadrons into dynamically generated resonances
In this paper, we present a review of recent works on weak decay of heavy mesons and baryons with two mesons, or a meson and a baryon, interacting strongly in the final state. The aim is to learn about the interaction of hadrons and how some particular resonances are produced in the reactions. It is shown that these reactions have peculiar features and act as filters for some quantum numbers which allow to identify easily some resonances and learn about their nature. The combination of basic elements of the weak interaction with the framework of the chiral unitary approach allow for an interpretation of results of many reactions and add a novel information to different aspects of the hadron…
Theoretical study of the Ξ(1620) and Ξ(1690) resonances in Ξc→π+MB decays
Nonleptonic weak decays of ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Xi}}}_{c}$ into ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$ and a meson $(M)$-baryon $(B)$ final state, $MB$, are analyzed from the viewpoint of probing $S=\ensuremath{-}2$ baryon resonances, i.e., $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Xi}}(1620)$ and $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Xi}}(1690)$, of which spin-parity and other properties are not well known. We argue that the weak decay of ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Xi}}}_{c}$ is dominated by a single quark-line diagram, preferred by the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa coefficient, color recombination factor, the diquark correlation, and the kinematical condition. The decay process has an advantage of being free from meson resonances in the ${\ens…
Antikaon-nucleon interaction and Lambda(1405) in chiral SU(3) dynamics
The properties of the Lambda(1405) resonance are key ingredients for determining the antikaon-nucleon interaction in strangeness nuclear physics, and the novel internal structure of the Lambda(1405) is of great interest in hadron physics, as a prototype case of a baryon that does not fit into the simple three-quark picture. We show that a quantitative description of the antikaon-nucleon interaction with the Lambda(1405) is achieved in the framework of chiral SU(3) dynamics, with the help of recent experimental progress. Further constraints on the Kbar N subthreshold interaction are provided by analyzing pi Sigma spectra in various processes, such as the K-d -> pi Sigma n reaction and the…
Weak decay ofΛc+for the study ofΛ(1405)andΛ(1670)
We study the ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}}_{c}$ decay process to ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$ and the meson-baryon final state for the analysis of $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}$ resonances. Considering the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix, color suppression, diquark correlation, and the kinematical condition, we show that the final meson-baryon state should be in a pure $I=0$ combination, when the meson-baryon invariant mass is small. Because the $I=1$ contamination usually makes it difficult to analyze $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}$ resonances directly from experiments, the ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}}_{c}$ decay is an ideal process to study $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}$ resonances.…
