Investigation on the $$Omega(2012)$$ from QCD sum rules

Su, N.*; Chen, H.-X.*; Gubler, P. ; Hosaka, Atsushi

We study the recently observed $$Omega(2012)$$ baryon in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) sum rules. We construct the P-wave $$Omega$$ baryon currents with a covariant derivative, and perform spin projection to obtain the currents with total spin 1/2 and 3/2. We then apply the parity-projected QCD sum rules to separate the contributions of the positive and negative parity states. We extract the masses of $$J^P = 1/2^{-}$$ and $$3/2^{-}$$ states to be $$M_{1/2^-} = 2.07^{+0.07}_{-0.07}$$ GeV and $$M_{3/2^-} = 2.05^{+0.09}_{-0.10}$$ GeV. Both results are in good agreement with the experimental result. Therefore, it is likely that the $$Omega(2012)$$ is a negative parity state, which is interpreted as a P-wave excited state in the quark model. However, its spin is not determined in the present analysis, which can be done by detailed study on its decay properties.
