Description of the $$\Xi _c$$ Ξc and $$\Xi _b$$ Ξb states as molecular states

Abstract In this work we study several $$\Xi _c$$ Ξc and $$\Xi _b$$ Ξb states dynamically generated from the meson–baryon interaction in coupled channels, using an extension of the local hidden gauge approach in the Bethe–Salpeter equation. These molecular states appear as poles of the scattering am...

Description
Summary:Abstract In this work we study several $$\Xi _c$$ Ξc and $$\Xi _b$$ Ξb states dynamically generated from the meson–baryon interaction in coupled channels, using an extension of the local hidden gauge approach in the Bethe–Salpeter equation. These molecular states appear as poles of the scattering amplitudes, and several of them can be identified with the experimentally observed $$\Xi _c$$ Ξc states, including the $$\Xi _c(2790)$$ Ξc(2790) , $$\Xi _c(2930)$$ Ξc(2930) , $$\Xi _c(2970)$$ Ξc(2970) , $$\Xi _c(3055)$$ Ξc(3055) and $$\Xi _c(3080)$$ Ξc(3080) . Also, for the recently reported $$\Xi _b(6227)$$ Ξb(6227) state, we find two poles with masses and widths remarkably close to the experimental data, for both the $$J^P=1/2^-$$ JP=1/2- and $$J^P=3/2^-$$ JP=3/2- sectors.
