Title: What is the right formalism to search for resonances? II. The pentaquark chain: Joint Physics Analysis Center

Journal Article · · European Physical Journal. C, Particles and Fields

We discuss the differences between several partial-wave analysis formalisms used in the construction of three-body decay amplitudes involving fermions. Specifically, we consider the decay Λ b ψ p K , where the hidden charm pentaquark signal has been reported. We analyze the analytical properties of the amplitudes and separate kinematical and dynamical singularities. The result is an amplitude with the minimal energy dependence compatible with the S-matrix principles.
