Description
Using the relativistic flux tube model with spin-dependent interactions, we present a systematic investigation of the mass spectra of triply heavy baryons. In this framework, the baryon is treated within a heavy-diquark–heavy-quark configuration, where two heavy quarks form a compact diquark connected to the remaining heavy quark through a rotating string-like flux tube. Spin–spin, spin–orbit, and tensor interactions are incorporated to obtain the fine structure of the spectrum. The calculated ground-state masses are compared with available theoretical predictions from lattice QCD, quark models, and QCD sum-rule approaches to test the reliability of the present model. In addition, we provide predictions for radially and orbitally excited states, along with possible spin-parity assignments. Since no triply heavy baryon has yet been experimentally confirmed, these results serve as useful theoretical benchmarks for future searches at high-energy facilities such as LHCb, CMS, and ATLAS.
