Λc(2940)+: a possible molecular state?

Abstract: A new baryonic state Λc(2940) + has recently been discovered by the Babar collaboration in the D 0 p channel. Later Belle collaboration also observed this state in the Σc(2455) 0,++ π ± → Λ + c π + π − channel. The mass of Λc(2940) + is just a few MeV below the sum of D * 0 and p masses suggesting a possibility that this state may be a D * 0 p molecular state. In this paper we study whether such a molecular state can be consistent with data. We find that the molecular structure can explain data and that if Λc(… Show more

“…In this mass region, it can be J P 5=2 , J P 3=2 , J P 1=2 , or J P 5=2 ÿ , as suggested by the quark model [41]. The 3 P 0 model [6] suggests that its configuration favors , while a molecular state with J P 1=2 ÿ is also proposed [42].…”

“…The proximity of their masses to the thresholds inspired molecular explanations of these structures [196,215,216,202,217,218,219,220,221,222,223,224,225,203,226,200,227,228,229,230,231,232,233,234,235,236,237,238,239]. With the refinement of the meson exchange model, many subtle aspects of this framework were investigated, such as the S-D wave mixing effect [185,197], coupled-channel effect [240,241,242], and recoil correction [243,244].…”

“…This is because an unknown coupling constant for the vertex N D * Σ c occured in the considerations of Ref. [11]. However, a quantitative prediction for the three-body decay widths of Λ c (2940) + → Λ c (2286) + + 2π could be done using information about two-body decays Λ c (2940) + → Σ c (2455)+π done in Ref.…”
