dππdecay of the d* dibaryon

Abstract

The $d^{\ast }\to d\pi \pi$ partial decay width has been calculated in a wave-function model for $d^{\ast }$ and $d$. It is found to be smaller than a previous estimate by a factor of 7. A previously proposed dependence on dibaryon sizes is confirmed. Additional dependence on the high-momentum components of dibaryon wave functions is found.
