Prediction of super-heavy $N^*$ and $\Lambda^*$ resonances with hidden beauty

TL;DR

This paper extends a meson-baryon interaction model to the hidden beauty sector, predicting narrow super-heavy $N^*$ and $\\Lambda^*$ resonances around 11 GeV as dynamically generated states, and estimates their production cross sections for experimental detection.

Contribution

It introduces a novel extension of the coupled channel approach to the hidden beauty sector, predicting new super-heavy resonances and providing cross section estimates for experimental searches.

Findings

Predicted narrow $N^*$ and $\Lambda^*$ resonances around 11 GeV.

Resonances are dynamically generated from heavy beauty meson-baryon interactions.

Estimated production cross sections for $pp$ and $ep$ collisions.

Abstract

The meson-baryon coupled channel unitary approach with the local hidden gauge formalism is extended to the hidden beauty sector. A few narrow $N^*$ and $\Lambda^*$ resonances around 11 GeV are predicted as dynamically generated states from the interactions of heavy beauty mesons and baryons. Production cross sections of these predicted resonances in $pp$ and $ep$ collisions are estimated as a guide for the possible experimental search at relevant facilities.
