The recent discovery by LHCb of the first doubly-charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++} = ccu$ at $3621.40 \pm 0.78$ MeV implies a large binding energy $\sim 130$ MeV between the two $c$ quarks. This strong binding enables a quark-rearrangement…

It is considered that the effective interaction between any two quarks in a baryon can be approximately described by a simple harmonic potential. Also, it is made use of the nonrelativistic approximation. The problem is firstly solved in…
In this work, we evaluate the energy spectra of baryons which consist of two heavy and one light quarks in the MIT bag model. The two heavy quarks constitute a heavy scalar or axial vector diquark. Concretely, we calculate the spectra of…
