A Heavy Quark Symmetry Approach to Baryons
arXiv:hep-ph/0501085 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2005.03.052
Abstract
We evaluate different properties of baryons with a heavy c or b quark. The use of Heavy Quark Symmetry (HQS) provides with an important simplification of the non relativistic three body problem which can be solved by means of a simple variational approach. This scheme is able to reproduce previous results obtained with more involved Faddeev calculations. The resulting wave functions are parametrized in a simple manner, and can be used to calculate further observables.
