Abstract: (Chinese Academy of Sciences)
There is a puzzle in the Λc+_{c}^{+} family, i.e.i.e., one member with J^{$P$}=3/2+^{+} is missing in a LL=2 multiplet which the heavy quark effective theory predicts, and J^{$P$}'s of Λc_{c}(2765)+^{+} and Λc_{c}(2940)+^{+} are unknown. Using a light diquark picture to calculate baryon masses, we study possible assignments of two Λc_{c}'s with unknown J^{$P$} and the missing Λc+_{c}^{+} with 3/2+^{+} for LL=2, and we find the most probable possibility that the peak corresponding to Λc_{c}(2880)+^{+} actually includes a missing member with spin 3/2+^{+} for LL=2 and that quantum numbers of Λc_{c}(2765)+^{+} and Λc_{c}(2940)+^{+} are 2SS(1/2+^{+}) and 2PP (1/2^{-}), respectively.
