Abstract
In our previous studies, we analyzed the two-body strong decays of the low-lying Ω baryon states within a chiral quark model. The results showed that the mass, total width, and two body decay could be well reproduced with the spin-parity state classified in the quark model. Stimulated by the new observations of the three-body decay process at Belle, in the present study, we further investigate the three-body strong decay within the chiral quark model. It is found that the has a sizeable decay rate into the three-body final states . When considering as the resonance, the predicted ratio is close to the upper limit measured by the Belle Collaboration in 2019; however, it is too small to be comparable to the recent measurement . In addition, the coupled-channel effects on the bare three-quark state from nearby channels , , and are studied. Our theoretical results show that the coupled-channel effects on are not very large, and the molecular component is no more than . To clarify the nature of resonance, precise measurements on the ratio are needed, and further investigation on the effects of coupled channels is recommended.
