Strong ${\Sigma }_{b}NB$ and ${\Sigma }_{c}ND$ coupling constants in QCD

Abstract

We study the strong interactions among the heavy bottom spin--1/2 ${\Sigma }_b$ baryon, nucleon and $B$ meson as well as the heavy charmed spin--1/2 ${\Sigma }_c$ baryon, nucleon and $D$ meson in the context of QCD sum rules. We calculate the corresponding strong coupling form factors defining these vertices by using a three point correlation function. We obtain the numerical values of the corresponding strong coupling constants via the most prominent structure entering the calculations.
