Deuteron-like states composed of two doubly charmed baryons

We present a systematic investigation of the possible molecular states composed of a pair of doubly charmed baryons ($\Xi_{cc}\Xi_{cc}$) or one doubly charmed baryon and one doubly charmed antibaryon $(\Xi_{cc}\bar{\Xi}_{cc})$ within the framework of the one-boson-exchange-potential model. For the spin-triplet systems, we take into account the mixing between the ${}^3S_1$ and ${}^3D_1$ channels. For the baryon-baryon system $\Xi_{cc}\Xi_{cc}$ with $(R,I) = (\bar{3}, 1/2)$ and $(\bar{3}, 0)$, where $R$ and $I$ represent the group representation and the isospin of the system, respectively, there exist loosely bound molecular states. For the baryon-antibaryon system $\Xi_{cc}\bar{\Xi}_{cc}$ with $(R,I) = (8, 1)$, $(8, 1/2)$ and $(8,0)$, there also exist deuteron-like molecules. The $B_{cc}\bar{B}_{cc}$ molecular states may be produced at LHC. The proximity of their masses to the threshold of two doubly charmed baryons provides a clean clue to identify them.Comment: 18 pages, 8 figure

Possible hadronic molecules composed of the doubly charmed baryon and nucleon

We perform a systematical investigation of the possible deuteron-like bound states with configuration $\Xi_{cc}N (\bar{N})$, where $N(\bar{N})$ denotes the nucleon (anti-nucleon), in the framework of the one-boson-exchange-potential model. In the spin-triplet sector we take into account both the ${}^3S_1$ and ${}^3D_1$ channels due to non-vanishing tensor force. There exist several candidates of the loosely bound molecular states for the $\Xi_{cc}N$ and $\Xi_{cc}\bar{N}$ systems, which lie below the threshold of $\Lambda_c\Lambda_c$ or $\Lambda_c{\bar\Lambda}_c$. We also investigate the possible loosely bound states with configurations $\Lambda_cN(\bar{N})$ and $\Sigma_cN(\bar{N})$. These molecular candidates may be searched for at Belle II and LHC in the near future.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figure

Magnetic moments of the spin-32{3\over 2} doubly heavy baryons

In this work, we investigate the chiral corrections to the magnetic moments of the spin-$3\over 2$ doubly charmed baryons systematically up to next-to-next-to-leading order with the heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. The numerical results are given up to next-to-leading order: $\mu_{\Xi^{*++}_{cc}}=1.72\mu_{N}$, $\mu_{\Xi^{*+}_{cc}}=-0.09\mu_{N}$, $\mu_{\Omega^{*+}_{cc}}=0.99\mu_{N}$. As a by-product, we have also calculated the magnetic moments of the spin-$3\over 2$ doubly bottom baryons and charmed bottom baryons: $\mu_{\Xi^{*0}_{bb}}=0.63\mu_{N}$, $\mu_{\Xi^{*-}_{bb}}=-0.79\mu_{N}$, $\mu_{\Omega^{*-}_{bb}}=0.12\mu_{N}$, $\mu_{\Xi^{*+}_{bc}}=1.12\mu_{N}$, $\mu_{\Xi^{*0}_{bc}}=-0.40\mu_{N}$, $\mu_{\Omega^{*0}_{bc}}=0.56\mu_{N}$.Comment: 10 pages,2 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1707.02765.

Radiative decays of the doubly charmed baryons in chiral perturbation theory

We have systematically investigated the spin-$\frac{3}{2}$ to spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ doubly charmed baryon transition magnetic moments to the next-to-next-to-leading order in the heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory (HBChPT). Numerical results of transition magnetic moments and decay widths are presented to the next-to-leading order: $\mu_{\Xi_{cc}^{*++}\rightarrow\Xi_{cc}^{++}}=-2.35\mu_{N}$, $\mu_{\Xi_{cc}^{*+}\rightarrow\Xi_{cc}^{+}}=1.55\mu_{N}$, $\mu_{\Omega_{cc}^{*+}\rightarrow\Omega_{cc}^{+}}=1.54\mu_{N}$, $\Gamma_{\Xi_{cc}^{*++}\rightarrow\Xi_{cc}^{++}}=22.0$ keV, $\Gamma_{\Xi_{cc}^{*+}\rightarrow\Xi_{cc}^{+}}=9.57$ keV, $\Gamma_{\Omega_{cc}^{*+}\rightarrow\Omega_{cc}^{+}}=9.45$ keV.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1707.02765, arXiv:1706.0645
