Issues in Heavy Flavour Baryons
نویسنده
چکیده
I present a mini-review on the physics of heavy flavour baryons where I concentrate on the HQET description of their exclusive decay modes. In particular I discuss the structure of current-induced bottom baryon to charm baryon transitions, and the structure of pion and photon transitions between heavy charm or bottom baryons in the Heavy Quark Symmetry limit as mQ → ∞. The emphasis is on the structural similarity of the Heavy Quark Symmetry predictions for the three types of transitions. The requisite coupling expressions are discussed both in the covariant framework as well as in terms of ClebschGordan coefficients and 6-j symbols. At the end of my review I touch on some unresolved issues in exclusive nonleptonic charm and bottom baryon decays which serve to highlight our present lack of understanding of nonleptonic heavy baryon decays. ∗Supported in part by BMBF,FRG under contract 06MZ566

We review the experimental and theoretical status of baryons containing one heavy quark. The charm and bottom baryon states are classified and their mass spectra are listed. The appropriate theoretical framework for the description of heavy baryons is the Heavy Quark Effective Theory, whose general ideas and methods are introduced and illustrated in specific examples. We present simple covarian...
متن کاملMasses and Magnetic Moments of Charmed Baryons Using Hyper Central Model
Heavy flavour baryons containing one or two charm quarks with light flavour combinations are studied using the hyper central description of the three-body system. The confinement potential is assumed as hyper central coulomb plus power potential with power index ν. The ground state masses and the magnetic moments of charmed, J = 1 2 + and 32 + baryons are computed for different power index, ν s...
متن کاملTests of flavour independence in heavy quark potential models
We review some rigourous consequences of flavour independence on the spectrum and properties of hadrons in potential models, with emphasis on hadrons with two heavy quarks, such as (bc̄) mesons and (QQq) baryons.
متن کاملHEAVY BARYONS – STATUS AND OVERVIEW ( Theory
We review recent progress in the understanding of the physics of heavy baryons. We begin our review by presenting some highlights of recent experimental findings on charm and bottom baryons and briefly comment on their theoretical implications. On the theoretical side we review new results on the renormalization of HQET, on the Isgur-Wise function for Λ b → Λ c transitions and on the flavour-co...

Properties of single heavy flavor baryons in a non relativistic potential model with colour coulomb plus power law confinement potential have been studied. The ground state masses of single heavy baryons and the mass difference between the (JP = 3 2 + and JP = 1 2 + ) states are computed using a spin dependent two body potential. Using the spin-flavour structure of the constituting quarks and b...
