Bottom Baryon Decays in Non-relativistic Quark Model


الملخص بالإنكليزية

The reactions $Sigma_b^* to Lambda_b pi$, $Sigma_b to Lambda_b pi$, and $Xi_b^* to Xi_b pi$ are studied in the $^3P_0$ non-relativistic quark model with all the model parameters fixed in the sector of light quarks. The theoretical predictions for the decay widths $Gamma_{Sigma_b^* to Lambda_b pi}$ and $Gamma_{Sigma_b to Lambda_b pi}$ are consistent with the experimental data of the CDF Collaboration. Using as an input the recent mass of $Xi_b$ and the theoretical predictions mass of $Xi_b^{*}$, a narrow decay width about 1 MeV is predicted for the bottom baryon $Xi_b^*$. The work suggests that the $^3P_0$ quark dynamics is of independence of environments where heavy quarks may or may not be a component of baryons.
