Abstract

The lattice QCD analysis of the HAL QCD Collaboration has recently derived ΩN\Omega N and ΩΩ\Omega\Omega interacting potentials with nearly physical quark masses (mπm_\pi \simeq 146 MeV and mKm_K \simeq 525 MeV). They found an attractive interaction in the ΩN\Omega N 5S2^5S_2 channel which supports a bound state with a central binding energy of 1.54 MeV. The ΩΩ\Omega \Omega 1S0^1S_0 channel shows an overall attraction with a bound state with a central binding energy of 1.6 MeV. In this paper we looked closely at the ΩNN\Omega NN and ΩΩN\Omega\Omega N three-body systems making use of the latest HAL QCD Collaboration ΩN\Omega N and ΩΩ\Omega\Omega interactions. Our results show that the Ωd\Omega d system in the state with maximal spin (I)JP=(0)5/2+(I)J^P=(0)5/2^+ is bound with a binding energy of about 20 MeV. The (I)JP=(1)3/2+(I)J^P=(1)3/2^+ Ωnn\Omega nn state presents a resonance decaying to ΛΞn\Lambda \Xi n and ΣΞn\Sigma \Xi n, with a separation energy of \sim 1 MeV. The (I)JP=(1/2)1/2+(I)J^P=(1/2)1/2^+ ΩΩN\Omega \Omega N state also exhibits a resonance decaying to ΛΞΩ\Lambda \Xi \Omega and ΣΞΩ\Sigma \Xi \Omega, with a separation energy of \sim 4.6 MeV. We have calculated the contribution of the Coulomb potential to differentiate among the different charged states.
