Dynamical mixing between $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ charmed mesons (2006.01347v2)

Abstract: In charmed $D$ and $D_s$ mesons sector, the matrix of a Hamiltonian in a quark potential model is computed in the $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ subspace. The masses of four mixed states of $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ denoted with $D^*_1(2635)$, $D^*_1(2739)$, $D^*_{s1}(2715)$ and $D^*_{s1}(2805)$ are obtained. It is an off-diagonal part of the spin-orbit tensor interaction that causes the mixing between the $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ states. The mixing angles between the $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ states are tiny. Under the mixing, a $^3P_0$ model is employed to compute the hadronic decay widths of all OZI-allowed decay channels of the four mixed states. The two light mixed states $D^*_1(2635)$ and $D^*_{s1}(2715)$ are close in mass to $D^*_J(2600)$ and $D^*_{s1}(2700)$, while the two heavy mixed states $D^*_1(2739)$ and $D^*_{s1}(2805)$ are lighter in mass than $D(2750)$ and $D^*_{s1}(2860)$. The mixing angles obtained from dynamical interaction are inconsistent with the mixing angles obtained from hadronic decay. Based on mass spectra and hadronic decay analyses, $D^*_J(2600)$, $D(2750)$, $D^*_{s1}(2700)$ and $D^*_{s1}(2860)$ are impossibly the mixed states of $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ at the small mixing angles. The inconsistence implies that $D^*_1(2760)$ and $D^*_{s1}(2860)$ have not been properly resolved from present experimental data, or there exist large unknown off-diagonal interactions that result in large mixing angles.
