    Two-Body Strong Decay of Z(3930) as the Ο‡c2(2P)\chi_{c2} (2P) State

    The new particle Z(3930) found by the Belle and BaBar Collaborations through the Ξ³Ξ³β†’DDΛ‰\gamma\gamma\rightarrow D\bar D process is identified to be the Ο‡c2(2P)\chi_{c2}(2P) state. Since the mass of this particle is above the DDΛ‰(βˆ—)D\bar D^{(\ast)} threshold, the OZI-allowed two-body strong decays are the main decay modes. In this paper, these strong decay modes are studied with two methods. One is the instantaneous Bethe-Salpeter method within Mandelstam formalism. The other is the combination of the 3P0^3P_0 model and the former formalism. The total decay widths are 26.3 and 27.3 MeV for the methods with or without the 3P0^3P_0 vertex, respectively. The ratio of Ξ“DDΛ‰\Gamma_{D\bar D} over Ξ“DDΛ‰βˆ—\Gamma_{D\bar D^\ast} which changes along with the mass of the initial meson is also presented.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figure

    The Electromagnetic Decays of BcΒ±(2S)B^{\pm}_c(2S)

    We calculate the electromagnetic (EM) decay widths of the BcΒ±(2S)B^{\pm}_c(2S) meson, which is observed recently by the ATLAS Collaboration. The main EM decay channels of this particle are 13S1Ξ³1{^3S_1}\gamma and 1PΞ³1{P}\gamma, which, in literature, are estimated to have the branching ratio of about 1/101/10. In this work, we get the partial decay widths: Ξ“(21S0β†’13S1Ξ³)=0.192\Gamma(2{^1S_0}\rightarrow 1{^3S_1}\gamma)=0.192 keV, Ξ“(21S0β†’1P1Ξ³)=2.24\Gamma(2{^1S_0}\rightarrow 1{P_1}\gamma) = 2.24 keV and Ξ“(21S0β†’1P1β€²Ξ³)=11.4\Gamma(2{^1S_0}\rightarrow 1{P_1^\prime}\gamma) = 11.4 keV. In the calculation, the instantaneous approximated Bethe-Salpeter method is used. For the PP-wave BcB_c mesons, the wave functions are given by mixing the 3P1^3P_1 and 1P1^1P_1 states. Within the Mandelstam formalism, the decay amplitude is given, which includes the relativistic corrections.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figures, 3 table
