Evidence of the low-lying baryon Σ^*(1/2^-) in the process Λ_c^+→ηπ^+Λ
arxiv(2024)
Abstract
Motivated by the Belle measurements of the process Λ_c^+→ηπ^+Λ, we investigate this process by considering the contributions
from the Λ(1670), a_0(980), and Σ(1385). In addition, we also
consider the predicted low-lying baryon Σ^*(1/2^-). Our results
involving the Σ^*(1/2^-) are favored by fitting to the Belle data of the
ηΛ and π^+Λ invariant mass distributions. Furthermore, we
predict the ηπ^+ invariant mass distribution and the angular
distribution dΓ/d cosθ, which are significantly different
depending on whether or not the contribution from the Σ^*(1/2^-) is
considered. Finally, we show that, with the contribution from the
Σ^*(1/2^-), the calculated Dalizt plot agrees with the Belle
measurements. Future precise measurements of the process Λ_c^+→ηπ^+Λ could shed further light on the existence of the low-lying
Σ^*(1/2^-).
