A natural interpretation on the data of $Λ_c\toΣπ$

Even though the Standard Model (SM) has achieved great success, its application to the field of low energies still lacks solid foundation due to our limited knowledge on non-perturbative QCD. Practically, all theoretical calculations of the hadronic transition matrix elements are based various phenomenological models. There indeed exist some anomalies in the field which are waiting for interpretations. The goal of this work is trying to solve one of the anomalies: the discrepancy between the theoretical prediction on the sign of the up-down asymmetry parameter of $Λ_c\toΣπ$ and the experimental measurement. In the literatures several authors calculated the rate and determined the asymmetry parameter within various schemes, but there exist obvious loopholes in those adopted scenarios. To solve the discrepancy between theory and data, we suggest that not only the direct transition process contributes to the observed $Λ_c\toΣπ$, but also other portals such as $Λ_c\to Λρ$ also play a substantial role via an isospin-conserving re-scattering $Λρ\toΣπ$. Taking into account of the effects induced by the final state interaction, we re-evaluate the relevant quantities. Our numerical results indicate that the new theoretical prediction based on this scenario involving an interference between the direct transition of $Λ_c\toΣπ$ and the portal $Λ_c\toΛρ\toΣπ$ can make both the decay rate and sign of the asymmetry parameter to be consistent with data.
