abstract
Charmed baryon strong decays are studied in a chiral quark model. The data for the decays of $\Lambda^+_c(2593)$, $\Lambda^+_c(2625)$, $\Sigma^{++,+,0}_c$ and $\Sigma^{+,0}_c(2520)$, are accounted for successfully, which allows to fix the pseudoscalar-meson-quark couplings in an effective chiral Lagrangian. Extending this framework to analyze the strong decays of the newly observed charmed baryons, we classify that both $\Lambda_c(2880)$ and $\Lambda_c(2940)$ are $D$-wave states in the N=2 shell; $\Lambda_c(2880)$ could be $|\Lambda_c ^2 D_{\lambda\lambda}{3/2}^+>$ and $\Lambda_c(2940)$ could be $|\Lambda_c ^2 D_{\lambda\lambda}{5/2}^+>$. Our calculation also suggests that $\Lambda_c(2765)$ is very likely a $\rho$-mode $P$-wave excited state in the N=1 shell, and favors a $|\Lambda_c ^4P_\rho 1/2^->$ configuration. The $\Sigma_c(2800)$ favors being a $|\Sigma_c ^2P_\lambda{1/2}^->$ state. But its being $|\Sigma^{++}_c ^4 P_\lambda{5/2}^->$ cannot be ruled out.

Unquenched quark model calculations show coupled-channel effects lower masses of higher D and Ds excitations; D_s1(2933) is assigned as mixed D_s(2P1), D_sJ(3040) favors D_s(3^1S0), while D(3000) fits none of the 3S/2P/2D/1F states.
