Broken SU(4) symmetry and the baryon resonances

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., D; (United States)
The J/sup P/ = 3/2/sup +/ baryon-resonance mass spectrum, including the charmed states, and the resonance widths are calculated using a broken-SU(4) -symmetric one-baryon-exchange model of the baryon--pseudoscalar-meson forces. The dispersion-theoretic multichannel N/D matrix method is employed to construct the scattering amplitude for each state. The parameters of the theory are a mixing parameter analogous to the SU(3) F to D ratio, the mass of the exchanged baryon, a subtraction-point energy in the dispersion integrals, and the 1/2/sup +/ baryon and pseudoscalar-meson masses including those with nonzero values of charm. The positions and widths are determined for three different sets of predicted masses for those charmed particles.
