Their expressions both in infinite and finite volumes are provided for chiral extrapolation in lattice QCD. As a first application, our chiral results of the masses are confronted with the existing lattice QCD data in the presence of finite volume corrections. Up to $\\mathcal{O}(p^3)$ all relevant low energy constants can be well determined. As a consequence, we obtain the physical values for the masses of $\\Xi_{cc}$ and $\\Omega_{cc}$ baryons by extrapolating to the physical limit. Our determination of the $\\Xi_{cc}$ mass is consistent with the recent experimental value by LHCb collaboration, however, larger than the one by SELEX collaboration. In addition, we predict the pion-baryon and strangeness-baryon sigma terms, as well as the mass splitting between the $\\Xi_{cc}$ and $\\Omega_{cc}$ states. Their quark mass dependences are also discussed. The numerical procedure can be applied to the chiral results of $\\mathcal{O}(p^4)$ order, where more unknown constants are involved, when more data are available for unphysical pion masses.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-01-29T11:56:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation theory", "manifestly lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation", "doubly charmed baryons", "sigma terms" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
