arXiv:1712.07295 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.97.074005

Abstract

We perform a systematical investigation of the strong decay properties of the low-lying - and -wave doubly charmed baryons with the quark pair creation model. The main predictions include: (i) in the and family, the mode excitations with and should be the fairly narrow states. (ii) For the mode excitations, and have a width of MeV, and mainly decay into the ground state. Meanwhile, and are the narrow states with a width of MeV, and mainly decay into the ground state with . (iii) The states mainly decay via emitting a heavy-light meson if their masses are above the threshold of or , respectively. Their strong decay widths are sensitive to the masses and can reach several tens MeV. (iv) The states may be broad states with a width of MeV. It should be emphasized that the states with and mainly decay into the ground state with plus a light-flavor meson, while the states with and mainly decay into the ground state with plus a light-flavor meson.
