Abstract

More than ten Ωc0\Omega_c^0 weak decay modes have been measured with the branching fractions relative to that of Ωc0Ωπ+\Omega^0_c\to\Omega^-\pi^+. In order to extract the absolute branching fractions, the study of Ωc0Ωπ+\Omega^0_c\to\Omega^-\pi^+ is needed. In this work, we predict BπB(Ωc0Ωπ+)=(5.1±0.7)×103{\cal B}_\pi\equiv {\cal B}(\Omega_c^0\to\Omega^-\pi^+)=(5.1\pm 0.7)\times 10^{-3} with the Ωc0Ω\Omega_c^0\to\Omega^- transition form factors calculated in the light-front quark model. We also predict BρB(Ωc0Ωρ+)=(14.4±0.4)×103{\cal B}_\rho\equiv {\cal B}(\Omega_c^0\to\Omega^-\rho^+)=(14.4\pm 0.4)\times 10^{-3} and BeB(Ωc0Ωe+νe)=(5.4±0.2)×103{\cal B}_e\equiv{\cal B}(\Omega_c^0\to\Omega^-e^+\nu_e)=(5.4\pm 0.2)\times 10^{-3}. The previous values for Bρ/Bπ{\cal B}_\rho/{\cal B}_\pi have been found to deviate from the most recent observation. Nonetheless, our Bρ/Bπ=2.8±0.4{\cal B}_\rho/{\cal B}_\pi=2.8\pm 0.4 is able to alleviate the deviation. Moreover, we obtain Be/Bπ=1.1±0.2{\cal B}_e/{\cal B}_\pi=1.1\pm 0.2, which is consistent with the current data.
