Abstract
We study two-body baryonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons to charmed-baryon-antibaryon pairs, where baryons (or antibaryons) are orbital ground states in spin doublets or quartets. The four-fermion interaction theory forbids -wave decays for spin-quartet-quartet final-state configurations. SU(6) symmetry requires that all decay amplitudes are expressed by no more than eight parameters: three for wave, four for wave, and one for wave. Both inclusive and some exclusive branching ratios are studied based on the assumption of two-body dominance in baryonic decays of mesons. Results are listed in tables.
