Nature of charmed strange baryons $Ξ_c(3055)$ and $Ξ_c(3080)$

Published 17 Aug 2016 in hep-ph and hep-ex | (1608.04856v2)

Abstract: The hadronic decay widths and some ratios of branching fractions of the newly observed charmed strange baryons, $\Xi_c(3055)0$, $\Xi_c(3055)+$ and $\Xi_c(3080)+$ are calculated in a $3P_0$ model. In the calculation, they are considered as $34$ kinds of $D-wave$ charmed strange baryons. Among these assignments, $\Xi_c(3055)+$ is very possibly a $JP={5\over 2}+$ $\hat\Xi_{c3}\prime(\frac{5}{2}+)$ or $\check\Xi_{c3}2(\frac{5}{2}+)$, where $\Xi_c(3055)+$ has the total decay width $\Gamma=10.1$ MeV and $\Gamma=7.6$ MeV. The predicted ratios $\Gamma(\Xi_c(3055)+ \to \Lambda D+ )/ \Gamma(\Xi_c(3055)+ \to \Sigma_c{++}K-)=3.39$. $\Xi_c(3055)+$ is also very possibly a $JP={7\over 2}+$ $\hat\Xi_{c3}\prime(\frac{7}{2}+)$ or $\check\Xi_{c3}2(\frac{7}{2}+)$. In these two assignments, $\Xi_c(3055)+$ has the total decay width $\Gamma=9.7$ MeV and $\Gamma=6.3$ MeV. The predicted ratios $\Gamma(\Xi_c(3055)+ \to \Lambda D+ )/ \Gamma(\Xi_c(3055)+ \to \Sigma_c{++}K-)=5.91~\rm{or}~6.04$. As a isospin partner of $\Xi_c(3055)+$, $\Xi_c(3055)0$ is also very possibly a $JP={5\over 2}+$ $\hat\Xi_{c3}\prime(\frac{5}{2}+)$ or $\check\Xi_{c3}2(\frac{5}{2}+)$, where $\Xi_c(3055)0$ has the total decay width $\Gamma=10.9$ MeV and $\Gamma=7.0$ MeV. The predicted ratios $\Gamma(\Xi_c(3055)0 \to \Lambda D0 )/ \Gamma(\Xi_c(3055)0 \to \Sigma_c{+}K-)=4.24~\rm{or}~4.20$. $\Xi_c(3055)0$ is also very possibly a $JP={7\over 2}+$ $\hat\Xi_{c3}\prime(\frac{7}{2}+)$ or $\check\Xi_{c3}2(\frac{7}{2}+)$. In these assignments, $\Xi_c(3055)0$ has the total decay width $\Gamma=10.3$ MeV and $\Gamma=7.1$ MeV. The predicted ratios $\Gamma(\Xi_c(3055)0 \to \Lambda D0 )/ \Gamma(\Xi_c(3055)0 \to \Sigma_c{+}K-)=7.47~\rm{or}~7.56$. The results agree well with recent experimental data from Belle. $\Xi_c(3080)+$ seems impossible to be identified with a D-wave charmed strange baryon.
