Advantages
•
•
•
•
Small decay widths
Identifiable in missing mass plots
Isospin is 1/2.
(↔ nonstrange sector: 𝑖 = 1/2 and 3/2)
No flavor singlet state (unlike Λ
hyperons)
Difficulties
•
•
In most cases, 𝑆 = −1 initial state has
been used οƒ  no hadron beams for X
physics
With 𝑆 = 0 initial state,
 3-body final states at least
 cross section is very small ~ 𝑂(nb)
 other technical difficulties

2.2 Strangeness −2 and −3 baryons (Theory)
Direct extension of the classification in the quark model
•
Classify the states as members of octet or decuplet
•
Use spin-parity (if known) and Gell-Mann—Okubo mass relation
•

How to describe 𝛯(1690)?
The presence of 𝛯(1620) is puzzling, if it exits.

Skyrme model
Bound state approach
(Callan, Klebanov)
bound kaon
SU(3) is badly broken
Treat light flavors and strangeness
on the different footing
L = LSU(2) + LK/K*
Anomaly terms
(i) Push up the 𝑆 = +1 state
to the continuum
} no bound state
(ii) Pull down the 𝑆 = −1 state
below the threshold
} bound state
} give hyperons
Soliton provides background potential
which traps K/K* (or heavy) meson

Bound state model

οƒ˜ p-wave: lowest state
οƒ˜ s-wave: excited state
•

More comments
Two 𝜩 states
Kaons: one in p-wave and one in s-wave
•
οƒ˜ 𝐽 = π½π‘ π‘œπ‘™ + π½π‘š (π½π‘š = 𝐽1 + 𝐽2 )
π½π‘ π‘œπ‘™ : soliton spin (= 1/2),
𝐽1 (𝐽2 ): spin of the p(s)-wave kaon (= 1/2)
π½π‘š = 0 and 1: both of them can lead to 𝐽𝑃 = 1/2− 𝛯 states
Therefore, two 𝐽 = 1/2− states and one 𝐽 = 3/2− state
οƒ˜ ∴ In this model, it is natural to have two 1/2− states and their masses
are 1616 MeV & 1658 MeV!
Clearly, different from quark models

– Strategy
• Investigate the production mechanism using the currently available
information only
• Then consider other possible (and important) mechanisms
2010-05-27

Forbidden or suppressed mechanisms
•
•
In kaon—anti-kaon production, 𝛾𝑁 → 𝐾𝐾𝑁, meson production processes,
especially πœ™ meson production, are important.
In 𝛯 photoproduction,
– such processes are suppressed since the produced meson should be exotic
having strangeness 𝑆 = +2 in order to decay into two kaons.
– by the same reason, 𝑑-channel meson-exchange for 𝐾𝑁 → 𝐾𝑋 is also
suppressed as the exchange meson should have 𝑆 = +2.
E: exotic meson with 𝑆 = +2

Considered diagrams
•
Consider 𝐾 and 𝐾 ∗ exchange
only.
– Axial-vector 𝐾1 mesons: lack of
information & heavy mass
– Scalar πœ… or 𝐾0 mesons: not
allowed since πœ… → 𝐾𝛾 coupling
is forbidden by angular
momentum and parity
conservation.
•
Consider
– 𝑁′ = 𝑁 and π›₯
– π‘Œ, π‘Œ′ = low-lying Λ and Σ
hyperons
– Ξ′ = Ξ(1318) and Ξ(1530)
+ exchanged diagrams

Methods
• Problems
– There are many hyperon resonances of 𝑆 = −1, which can contribute to the
production process.
– We start with a very simple model for the production mechanism by choosing
only a few intermediate hyperon states.
• Lots of unknown coupling constants and ambiguities.
– We make use of the experimental (PDG) or empirical data (like Nijmegen
potential) if available.
– Or we use model predictions for the unknowns: SU(3) relations, quark model,
ChPT, Skyrme model, chiral quark model etc.
• Low mass hyperons:
Λ(1116), Λ(1405), Λ(1520), Σ(1190), Σ(1385)
– Their couplings are rather well-known.
• Higher mass hyperons:
– Expect important role of higher mass hyperon resonances ≳ 1.8 GeV
– Photoproduction amplitude at the intermediate hyperon on-shell point
𝑀1/2± ∝ (π‘šπ‘Œ βˆ“ π‘šπ‘ )(π‘šπ‘Œ βˆ“ π‘šΞ ),
𝑀3/2± ∝ (π‘šπ‘Œ ± π‘šπ‘ )(π‘šπ‘Œ ± π‘šΞ ),
– Consider 1/2− and 3/2+ resonances only

4. Outlook
• Study on the spectrum of X hyperons
– Opens a new window for understanding baryon structure
• Theoretical models for X spectrum
– Different and even contradictory predictions
– What is the third lowest X resonance?
And the quantum numbers?
• Experimentally, more data are required!
– Does Ξ(1620) exist?
– Should confirm other poorly established X resonances in PDG
as well as their quantum numbers
– Almost no information on the W baryon resonances
• Role of L and S resonances in X photoproduction.
– Offers a chance to study those hyperons.
– Higher mass and high spin resonances
