Chiral mass corrections to decuplet hidden-charm pentaquark states
Abstract
We calculate the masses of the JP=1/2- hidden-charm pentaquark states in the SU(3) decuplet within the heavy pentaquark chiral perturbation theory (HPChPT) up to the next-to-leading order (NLO). The one-loop self-energy corrections from the π, K, and η mesons are evaluated. Taking PψN(4312) and PψsΛ(4459) as inputs, we predict the masses of the doubly-strange and triply-strange decuplet members PψssN and PψsssΛ to be 4.607 GeV and 4.755 GeV, respectively. The mass splittings between adjacent strangeness layers are nearly constant at approximately 0.148 GeV. This equal-spacing pattern follows directly from the analytical structure of the NLO chiral corrections, while its actual magnitude is set by the low-energy constants (LECs). It indicates that the Gell--Mann--Okubo (GMO) relation, expected at the leading order of SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking, persists to good accuracy at the NLO.
