Mass Spectra and Semileptonic Decays of Doubly Heavy $ Ξ$ and $ Ω$ Baryons
In the framework of a non-relativistic quark model, the mass spectra of the ground and excited states of doubly heavy $Ξ$ and $Ω$ baryons are calculated. We estimate the mass difference between the $ Ω$ and corresponding $ Ξ$ baryons as $M_Ω-M_Ξ\simeq178 $ MeV for all the states containing $ cc,~bc $, or $ bb $ quarks. A simple form of the universal Isgur-Wise function, as the transition form factor between the doubly heavy baryons, is introduced. Working in the close-to-zero recoil limit, we investigate the $ b \rightarrow c $ semileptonic decay widths and branching fractions of the doubly heavy baryons. The obtained results are compared with other theoretical predictions.
