Weak decays of triply heavy baryons in light front approach

We analyze weak decays of triply heavy baryon $Ω_{ccc}^{++}$ and calculate the form factors for $Ω_{ccc}^{++}\to Ξ_{cc}^{++}/Ω_{cc}^+$ transitions in a light front quark model. The momentum distributions in form factors are accessed via the pole-model parametrization. Using the results for form factors, we predict decay branching fractions for semi-leptonic decays, and obtain $\mathcal{B}(Ω_{ccc}^{++}\toΞ_{cc}^+e^+ν_e)=0.08\%$, $\mathcal{B}(Ω_{ccc}^{++}\toΩ_{cc}^+e^+ν_e)=1.23\%$. Forward-backward asymmetry and angular distributions are then investigated in this work. We also estimate branching fractions for a few color-allowed processes and find that the $Ω_{ccc}^{++}\toΩ_{cc}^+π^+$ has a sizable branching fraction: $\mathcal{B}(Ω_{ccc}^{++}\toΩ_{cc}^+π^+)=1.82\%$. We point out that the $Ω_{ccc}^{++}\toΩ_{cc}^+π^+$ is a golden channel for the discovery of the $Ω_{ccc}^{++}$. This analysis can provide a useful reference for future experimental search in future.
