Spin splittings among charmed hadrons
Abstract
The mass differences between spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 baryons are compared to the mass differences between spin-0 and spin-1 mesons. Results of simulations for charmed hadrons in the quenched approximation from a tadpole-improved anisotropic action are discussed in the context of other lattice calculations, quark model predictions, heavy quark symmetry predictions and experimental data.
