Abstract

Through the interaction of Higgs with heavy quarks in standard model, we have systematically studied and predicted the production of excited doubly heavy baryons based on non-relativistic QCD theory. The decay widths, differential distributions, and major theoretical uncertainties of the excited doubly heavy baryons via the process HQQ[n]ΞQQ+Qˉ+QˉH \rightarrow \langle QQ'\rangle[n] \rightarrow \Xi_{QQ'}+ \bar {Q'} + \bar {Q} are discussed in detail. The spin and color quantum number of the intermediate PP-wave diquark state QQ[n]\langle QQ'\rangle[n] can be cc[1P1]3ˉ\langle cc\rangle[^{1}P_{1}]_{\mathbf{\bar 3}}, cc[3PJ]6\langle cc\rangle[^{3}P_{J}]_{\mathbf{6}}, bc[1P1]3ˉ/6\langle bc\rangle[^{1}P_{1}]_{\mathbf{\bar 3}/ \mathbf{6}}, bc[3PJ]3ˉ/6\langle bc\rangle[^{3}P_{J}]_{\mathbf{\bar 3}/ \mathbf{6}}, bb[1P1]3ˉ\langle bb \rangle[^{1}P_{1}]_{\mathbf{\bar 3}} and bb[3PJ]6\langle bb\rangle[^{3}P_{J}]_{\mathbf{6}}, with J=0,1,2J=0, 1, 2. The contributions from all summed PP-wave states can be about 3.05%3.05\%, 3.23%3.23\% and 2.19%2.19\% of the SS-wave states for the production of Ξcc\Xi_{cc}, Ξbc\Xi_{bc} and Ξbb\Xi_{bb}, accordingly. Therefore, there will be about 0.41×104\times10^4 events of Ξcc\Xi_{cc}, 6.35×104\times10^4 events of Ξbc\Xi_{bc} and 0.28×104\times10^4 events of Ξbb\Xi_{bb} produced per year at the HL-LHC, and a smaller number of events would be produced at the CEPC or ILC but with a cleaner background to be measured by the experiments.
