Abstract

Quark pair annihilation into gluons is suppressed at large momenta due to the asymptotic freedom. As a consequence, mass eigenvalues of heavy states should be almost diagonal with respect to up and down quark masses, thereby breaking isospin. We suggest the particle observed by the SELEX Collaboration, DsJ(2632), to be to a good extent a [cd][ds] state, which would explain why its D0K+ mode is anomalously suppressed with respect to Ds+\ensuremathη. Predictions for the rates of the yet unobserved modes Ds+\ensuremathπ0 and D+K0 are given.
