Interpretation of the observed $\Lambda_b(6146)^0$ and $\Lambda_b(6152)^0$ states as 1$D$ bottom baryons

The measured masses and strong decays of $\Lambda_b(6146)^0$ and $\Lambda_b(6152)^0$ required us to decode them as the 1$D$ excited states with $J^P=3/2^+$ and $J^P=5/2^+$, respectively. Under the suggested assignment, the masses and total decay widths of $\Lambda_b(6146)^0$ and $\Lambda_b(6152)^0$ can be explained. As a $J^P=3/2^+$ state, the $\Lambda_b(6146)^0$ should mainly decay into $\Sigma_b(5815)\pi$. However, this theoretical result is in contradiction to the measurement since no significant $\Lambda_b(6146)^0\rightarrow\Sigma_b(5815)^\pm\pi^\mp$ signals were observed by the LHCb. The possible explanations to this difficulty are mentioned. For completeness, we present the prediction of masses and decay widths of other unseen 1$D$ bottom baryons in this work. Our results could provide some important clues for the upcoming experiments.
