Electromagnetic and axial-vector structure of singly heavy baryons in a pion mean-field approach

Abstract

In this talk, we present a series of recent works on the electromagnetic and axial-vector structures of low-lying singly heavy baryons. We first explain the pion mean-field approach, in which light and singly heavy baryons can be considered on an equal footing. We then discuss the results for the electromagnetic and radiative transition form factors of the singly heavy baryons. We also demonstrate the results for the strong decay rates and quark spin content of the singly heavy baryons. Finally, we propose a consistent way of dealing with the $1/m_Q$ corrections in the pion mean-field approach.
