Abstract

Isospin splittings in baryons with two heavy quarks and a uu or dd quark are calculated using simple methods proposed previously by the authors. The results are M(Ξcc++)M(Ξcc+)=1.41±0.12+0.76M(\Xi_{cc}^{++})-M(\Xi_{cc}^+) = 1.41 \pm 0.12^{+0.76} MeV, M(Ξbb0)M(Ξbb)=4.78±0.06+0.03M(\Xi_{bb}^0) - M(\Xi_{bb}^-) = - 4.78 \pm 0.06^{+0.03} MeV, and M(Ξbc+)M(Ξbc0)=1.69±0.07+0.39M(\Xi_{bc}^+)-M(\Xi_{bc}^0)=-1.69 \pm0.07 ^{+0.39} MeV, where the statistical errors reflect uncertainties in input mass splittings, and the systematic errors are associated with the choice of constituent-quark masses.
