    Recently, the Belle collaboration measured the ratios of the branching fractions of the newly observed Ω(2012)\Omega(2012) excited state. They did not observe significant signals for the Ω(2012)→KˉΞ∗(1530)→KˉπΞ\Omega(2012) \to \bar{K} \Xi^*(1530) \to \bar{K} \pi \Xi decay, and reported an upper limit for the ratio of the three body decay to the two body decay mode of Ω(2012)→KˉΞ\Omega(2012) \to \bar{K} \Xi. In this work, we revisit the newly observed Ω(2012)\Omega(2012) from the molecular perspective where this resonance appears to be a dynamically generated state with spin-parity 3/2−3/2^- from the coupled channels interactions of the KˉΞ∗(1530)\bar{K} \Xi^*(1530) and ηΩ\eta \Omega in ss-wave and KˉΞ\bar{K} \Xi in dd-wave. With the model parameters for the dd-wave interaction, we show that the ratio of these decay fractions reported recently by the Belle collaboration can be easily accommodated.Comment: Published version.
