Investigating charmed hybrid baryons via QCD sum rules
We investigate charmed hybrid baryons using the QCD sum rule method within the framework of heavy quark effective theory. We construct 28 interpolating currents for charmed hybrid baryons, seven of which are employed in QCD sum rule analyses of 19 states with quark-gluon configurations <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <a:mi>q</a:mi> <a:mi>q</a:mi> <a:mi>c</a:mi> <a:mi>g</a:mi> </a:math> , <c:math xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <c:mi>q</c:mi> <c:mi>s</c:mi> <c:mi>c</c:mi> <c:mi>g</c:mi> </c:math> , and <e:math xmlns:e="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <e:mi>s</e:mi> <e:mi>s</e:mi> <e:mi>c</e:mi> <e:mi>g</e:mi> </e:math> ( <g:math xmlns:g="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <g:mi>q</g:mi> <g:mo>=</g:mo> <g:mi>u</g:mi> <g:mo>/</g:mo> <g:mi>d</g:mi> </g:math> ).
