Analysis of the strong $D_{2}^{*}(2460)^{0}\rightarrow D^+ π^- $ and $D_{s2}^{*}(2573)^{+}\rightarrow D^{+} K^{0}$ transitions via QCD sum rules

Abstract

The strong $D_{2}^{*}(2460)^{0}\rightarrow D^+ π^- $ and $D_{s2}^{*}(2573)^{+}\rightarrow D^{+} K^{0}$ transitions are analyzed via three point QCD sum rules. First, we calculate the corresponding strong coupling constants $g_{D_2^*Dπ}$ and $g_{D_{s2}^*DK}$. Then, we use them to calculate the corresponding decay widths and branching ratios. Making use of the existing experimental data on the ratio of the decay width in the pseudoscaler $D$ channel to that of the vector $D^*$ channel, finally, we estimate the decay width and branching ratio of the strong $D_2^*(2460)^0 \rightarrow D^*(2010)^+π^-$ transition.
