Abstract

The "good" diquark is employed to study Λc+\Lambda_c^{+} baryons within a mass loaded flux tube model. The study indicates that all Λc+\Lambda_c^{+} baryons candidates in the 2008 review by the Particle Data Group (PDG) are well described in the mass loaded flux tube model. The quantum numbers JPJ^P of these Λc+\Lambda_c^{+} candidates are assigned. If Λc(2765)+\Lambda_c(2765)^{+} is an orbitally excited Λc+\Lambda^+_c, it is likely the JP=32+J^P={3\over 2}^+ one. If Λc(2765)+\Lambda_c(2765)^+ is an orbitally excited Σc\Sigma_c, there ought to be another JP=32+J^P={3\over 2}^+ Λc+\Lambda^+_c with mass 2770\approx 2770 MeV. In the model, there exists no JP=12+J^P={1\over 2}^+ Λc(2700)+\Lambda_c(\approx 2700)^+ predicted in existing literature. Λc(2940)+\Lambda_c(2940)^{+} is very possible the orbitally excited baryon with JP=52J^P={5\over 2}^-.
