Abstract

We study the nonaquark states S0(3115)S^0(3115) and S+(3140)S^+(3140) which are reported by KEK-PS (Phys.Lett. B597 (2004) 236; nucl-ex/0310018) by means of the quark model with diquark correlation. The nonaquark states form 1,8,10,10ˉ,27,35ˉ\bf{1},\bf{8},\bf{10},\bar{\bf{10}},\bf{27},\bar{\bf{35}} SU(3) multiplets. The flavor wave functions of all the nonaquark states are constructed through the standard tensor technique. The mass spectrum is studied by using Gell-Mann-Okubo mass formula. Some nonaquark mass sum rules are obtained. We further investigate the decay of S0(3115)S^0(3115) and S+(3140)S^+(3140) under the assumption of "fall-apart" mechanism. It has been found that the main decay mode is ΣNN\Sigma NN rather than ΛNN\Lambda NN which is consistent with experiment. Also we have uniquely determine the flavor wave function of S0(3115)S^0(3115) which belong to 27\bf{27}-plet with the quantum number Y=2,I=1,Iz=1Y=2,I=1,I_z=-1. Whereas the exotic states S+(3140)S^+(3140) can belong to either 27\bf{27}-plet or 35ˉ\bar{\bf{35}}-plet. In the exact SU(3)flavor×SU(3)color×SU(2)spinSU(3)^{flavor}\times SU(3)^{color}\times SU(2)^{spin} limit, both S0(3115)S^0(3115) and S+(3140)S^+(3140) belong to 27{\bf 27}-plet with negative parity. We predict that its flavor structure can be determined by measuring the branch fractions of its decay channels. The experiments to check this prediction are expected.
