Two-body charmed baryon decays involving decuplet baryon in the quark-diagram scheme

Abstract

Abstract In the quark-diagram scheme, we study the charmed baryon decays of $$\mathbf{B}_c\rightarrow \mathbf{B}^* M$$ B c → B ∗ M , where $$\mathbf{B}_c$$ B c is $$\Lambda _c^+$$ Λ c + or $$\Xi _c^{+(0)}$$ Ξ c + ( 0 ) , together with $$\mathbf{B}^*$$ B ∗ (M) the decuplet baryon (pseudoscalar meson). It is found that only two W-exchange processes are allowed to contribute to $$\mathbf{B}_c\rightarrow \mathbf{B}^* M$$ B c → B ∗ M . Particularly, we predict $${\mathcal {B}}(\Lambda _c^+ \rightarrow \Sigma ^{*0(+)} \pi ^{+(0)})=(2.8\pm 0.4)\times 10^{-3}$$ B ( Λ c + → Σ ∗ 0 ( + ) π + ( 0 ) ) = ( 2.8 ± 0.4 ) × 10 - 3 , which respects the isospin symmetry. Besides, we take into account the SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking, in order to explain the observation of $${\mathcal {B}}(\Lambda _c^+\rightarrow \Sigma ^{*+}\eta )$$ B ( Λ c + → Σ ∗ + η ) . For the decays involving $$\Delta ^{++}(uuu)$$ Δ + + ( u u u ) , we predict $${\mathcal {B}}(\Lambda _c^+\rightarrow \Delta ^{++} \pi ^-,\Xi _c^+ \rightarrow \Delta ^{++} K^-) =(7.0\pm 1.4,13.5\pm 2.7)\times 10^{-4}$$ B ( Λ c + → Δ + + π - , Ξ c + → Δ + + K - ) = ( 7.0 ± 1.4 , 13.5 ± 2.7 ) × 10 - 4 as the largest branching fractions in the singly Cabibbo-suppressed $$\Lambda _c^+,\Xi _c^+\rightarrow \mathbf{B}^*M$$ Λ c + , Ξ c + → B ∗ M decay channels, respectively, which are accessible to the LHCb, BELLEII and BESIII experiments.
