Spectroscopic parameters of $B_c$ meson

We study the spectroscopy and decays of the $B_c$ meson in a nonrelativistic quark model in which all observables follow from a single set of wave functions, with spin-dependent effects included directly in the bound-state equation. With parameters calibrated to the measured $B_c(1S)$ and $B_c(2S)$ masses, we predict the $S$-, $P$-, and $D$-wave spectrum up to $n=5$, the pseudoscalar and vector decay constants with one-loop QCD corrections, the E1 and M1 radiative widths, and the radial Regge trajectories of ten spin-parity families. The $1P$ multiplet is predicted at 6692--6746~MeV with the normal fine-structure ordering, compatible with lattice QCD and located in the region of the two structures observed by LHCb in the $B_c^+γ$ spectrum. The $1D$ states lie near 7008~MeV, below the $BD$ threshold, and all four $D$-wave families are provided. The decay constant $f_{B_c}=507.1$~MeV is consistent with recent QCD sum-rule results and corresponds to $\mathcal{B}(B_c\toτν_τ)\approx3\%$. The E1 widths follow the expected angular weights, while their magnitudes are governed mainly by the radial overlap. The $1P\to1S$ (81--112~keV) and $1D\to1P$ (71--93~keV) widths suggest the $1D\to1P\to1S$ cascade as a promising route toward the first $D$-wave $B_c$ state. The Regge trajectories are nearly linear, with slopes decreasing from about 5.8~GeV$^2$ for the $S$-wave to 4.7--4.8~GeV$^2$ for the $D$-wave states. These results may guide forthcoming measurements at the LHC and future $e^+e^-$ facilities.

Mass spectrum and magnetic moments of singly-charmed baryons: a quark-diquark model analysis of $Ω_{c}(3185)^0$ and $Ω_c(3327)^0$

Research on singly-heavy baryons, especially those with a charm quark, offers a distinct perspective on the non-perturbative behavior of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). In this work, we investigate the recently observed $Ω_{c}(3185)^{0}$ and $Ω_{c}(3327)^{0}$ as singly-charmed baryons within the framework of the quark-diquark model. By employing a non-relativistic method with a Cornell-like potential, we systematically determine magnetic moments and mass spectra. Our analysis reveals that the $Ω_{c}(3185)^{0}$ can be effectively described as a $2S$ state with quantum numbers $J^{P}=\frac{1}{2}^{+}$ or $\frac{3}{2}^{+}$, or alternatively as a $1P$ state with $J^{P}=\frac{1}{2}^{-}$ or $\frac{3}{2}^{-}$, depending on the diquark configuration. Similarly, the $Ω_{c}(3327)^{0}$ is consistent with a $2S$ configuration. We also investigate their magnetic moments, emphasizing the critical role of diquark correlations in shaping the electromagnetic properties of these states. Our results not only validate existing theoretical models but also offer new insights into the nature of singly-heavy baryons, setting the stage for future experimental and theoretical investigations in heavy baryon spectroscopy. This paper emphasizes the importance of diquark configurations in elucidating the mass spectrum and electromagnetic characteristics of singly-charmed baryons, aiding in the broader effort to decipher QCD intricacies.
