Observation of an Excited Charm BaryonΩc*Decaying toΩc0γ
2006
We report the first observation of an excited singly-charm baryon OmegaC* (css) in the radiative decay OmegaC0 Gamma, where the OmegaC0 baryon is reconstructed in the decays to the final states Omega-pi+, Omega-pi+pi0, Omega-pi+pi-pi+, and Cascade-K-pi+pi+. This analysis is performed using a dataset of 230.7 fb$-1} collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The mass difference between the OmegaC* and the OmegaC0 baryons is measured to be 70.8 +/- 1.0 (stat) +/- 1.1 (syst) MeV/c2. We also measure the ratio of inclusive production cross sections of OmegaC* and OmegaC0 in e+e- annihilation.
Observation of a Charmed Baryon Decaying toD0pat a Mass Near2.94 GeV/c2
2007
A search for charmed baryons decaying to $D^0 p$ reveals two states: the $\Lambda_c(2880)^+$ baryon and a previously unobserved state at a mass of [$2939.8\pm 1.3 \text{(stat.)}\pm 1.0 \text{(syst.)}$]~\mevcc and with an intrinsic width of [$17.5\pm 5.2 \text{(stat.)}\pm 5.9 \text{(syst.)}$]~\mev. Consistent and significant signals are observed for the $K^-\pi^+$ and $K^-\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+$ decay modes of the $D^0$ in 287 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ annihilation data recorded by the BaBar detector at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58~${\rm GeV}/c^2$. There is no evidence in the $D^+ p$ spectrum of doubly-charged partners. The mass and intrinsic width of the $\Lambda_c(2880)^+$ baryon and relative yield of …
Masses of doubly charmed baryons in the extended on-mass-shell renormalization scheme
2016
In this work, we investigate the mass corrections of the doubly charmed baryons up to $N^2LO$ in the extended-on-mass-shell (EOMS) renormalization scheme, comparing with the results of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. We find that the terms from the heavy baryon approach are a subset of those obtained in the EOMS scheme. By fitting the lattice data, we can determine the parameters $\tilde{m}$, $\alpha$, $c_1$ and $c_7$ from the Lagrangian, while in the heavy baryon approach no information on $c_1$ can be obtained from the baryons mass. Correspondingly, the masses of $m_{\Xi_{cc}}$ and $m_{\Omega_{cc}}$ are predicted, in the EOMS scheme, extrapolating the results from different value…
Ab initio three-loop calculation of the W -exchange contribution to nonleptonic decays of double charm baryons
2019
We have made an ab initio three-loop quark model calculation of the $W$-exchange contribution to the nonleptonic two-body decays of the doubly charmed baryons $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ and $\Omega_{cc}^{+}$. The $W$-exchange contributions appear in addition to the factorizable tree graph contributions and are not suppressed in general. We make use of the covariant confined quark model previously developed by us to calculate the tree graph as well as the $W$-exchange contribution. We calculate helicity amplitudes and quantitatively compare the tree graph and $W$-exchange contributions. Finally, we compare the calculated decay widths with those from other theoretical approaches when they are available.

Spectra of the lightest baryons containing two heavy quarks in a potential model
2000
The spectra of baryons which include two heavy quarks can be treated as a two-body system, where the two heavy quarks constitute a bosonic diquark. We derive the effective potential between the light quark and the heavy diquark in terms of the Bethe-Salpeter equation. To obtain the spectra, several serious problems need to be solved: (1) the operator ordering, (2) the errors caused by the nonrelativistic expansion, (3) spin-spin coupling, and (4) the mixing between the scalar-diquark-baryon and vector-diquark-baryon. In this work we take reasonable approaches to deal with them.
Prediction of NarrowN*andΛ*Resonances with Hidden Charm above 4 GeV
2010
Up to now, all established baryons can be ascribed into 3-quark (qqq) configurations [1], although some of them were suggested to be meson-baryon dynamically generated states [2–8] or states with large (qqqq¯ q) components [9–11]. A difficulty to pin down the nature of these baryon resonances is that the predicted states from various models are around the same energy region and there are always some adjustable ingredients in each model to fit the experimental data. In this letter, we report a study of the interactions between various charmed mesons and charmed baryons within the framework of the coupled channel unitary approach with the local hidden gauge formalism. Several meson-baryon dyn…
Spin, helicity and flavour patterns in exclusive decays of bottom mesons into baryon-antibaryon pairs
1989
I use the constituent quark model to calculate the exclusive decays of bottom mesons into ground state baryon-antibaryon pairs mediated by the weakb→c and b→u transitions. TheW-exchange contributions to these decays are found to be negligible. For theW-decay contributions I find that the simple colour-flavour structure of the 1/2+ and 3/2+ ground state baryons together with the current-current nonleptonic Hamiltonian leads to many simple and testable predictions. Notable among these is the predicted vanishing of decays involving 3/2+ baryons as in\(\overline {B^0 } (B^ - ) \to 3/2^ + \overline {1/2^ + } \) and\(\overline {B^0 } (B^ - ) \to 3/2^ + \overline {3/2^ + } \). An experimental veri…
Charmed baryon resonances with heavy-quark symmetry
2009
We study charmed baryon resonances that are generated dynamically from a coupled-channel unitary approach that implements heavy-quark symmetry. Some states can already be identified with experimental observations, such as $\Lambda_c(2595)$,$\Lambda_c(2660)$, $\Sigma_c(2902)$ or $\Lambda_c(2941)$, while others need a compilation of more experimental data as well as an extension of the model to include higher order contributions. We also compare our model to previous SU(4) schemes.
