Systematic analysis of doubly charmed baryons $$\Xi _{cc}$$ and $$\Omega _{cc}$$

Abstract

In this work, we perform a systematic study of the mass spectra, the root mean square(r.m.s.) radii and the radial density distributions of the doubly charmed baryons $\Xi_{cc}$ and $\Omega_{cc}$. The calculations are carried out in the frame work of Godfrey-Isgur (GI) relativized quark model, where the baryon is regarded as a real three-body system of quarks. Our results show that the excited energy of doubly charmed baryon with $\rho$-mode is lower than those of the $\lambda$-mode and $\lambda$-$\rho$ mixing mode, which indicates that the lowest state is dominated by the $\rho$-mode. According to this conclusion, we systematically investigate the mass spectra, the r.m.s. radii of the ground and excited states($1S\sim4S$, $1P\sim4P$, $1D\sim4D$, $1F\sim4F$ and $1G\sim4G$) with $\rho$-mode. Using the wave functions obtained from quark model, we also study the radial density distributions. Finally, with the predicated mass spectra, the Regge trajectories of $\Xi_{cc}$ and $\Omega_{cc}$ in the ($J$,$M^{2}$) plane are constructed, and the slopes, intercepts are determined by linear fitting. It is found that model predicted masses fit nicely to the constructed Regge trajectories.
