New type of doubly charmed molecular pentaquarks containing most strange quarks: Mass spectra, radiative decays, and magnetic moments

In this work, we first predict the mass spectra of the $Ω_{c}^{(*)}{D}_s^{(*)}$-type doubly charmed molecular pentaquark candidates, where the one-boson-exchange model is adopted by considering both the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect and the coupled channel effect. Our findings indicate that the $Ω_{c}{D}_s^*$ state with $J^P={1}/{2}^{-}$, the $Ω_{c}^*{D}_s^*$ state with $J^P={1}/{2}^{-}$, and the $Ω_{c}^*{D}_s^*$ state with $J^P={3}/{2}^{-}$ can be considered as the most promising doubly charmed molecular pentaquark candidates, and the $Ω_{c}{D}_s$ state with $J^P={1}/{2}^{-}$, the $Ω_{c}^*{D}_s$ state with $J^P={3}/{2}^{-}$, and the $Ω_{c}{D}_s^*$ state with $J^P={3}/{2}^{-}$ are the possible doubly charmed molecular pentaquark candidates. Furthermore, we further explore the radiative decays and the magnetic moments of the most promising doubly charmed molecular pentaquark candidates in the constituent quark model. As a crucial aspect of spectroscopy, the information of the radiative decays and the magnetic moments can provide the valuable clues to reflect their inner structures. With the accumulation of higher statistical data at the Large Hadron Collider, we propose that the LHCb Collaboration should focus on the problem of searching for these predicted doubly charmed molecular pentaquark candidates containing most strange quarks in the coming years.

Spectroscopic survey of higher-lying states of $B_c$ meson family

In this work, we investigate the spectroscopy of higher $B_c$ mesons, with a special focus on the consideration of the unquenched effects. To account for such effects, we employ the modified Godfrey-Isgur model and introduce a screening potential. The resulting mass spectrum of the concerned higher $B_c$ states is then presented, showing significant deviations after considering the unquenched effects. This emphasizes the importance of considering the unquenched effects when studying of the higher $B_c$ mesons. Furthermore, we determine the corresponding spatial wave functions of these $B_c$ mesons, which have practical applications in subsequent studies of their decays. These decays include two-body Okuba-Zweig-Iizuka allowed strong decays, dipion transitions between $B_c$ mesons, radiative decays, and some typical weak decays. With the ongoing high-luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider, we expect the discovery of additional $B_c$ states in the near future. The knowledge gained from the mass spectrum and the different decay modes will undoubtedly provide valuable insights for future experimental explorations of these higher $B_c$ mesons.

Higher molecular $P_{ψs}^{Λ/Σ}$ pentaquarks arising from the $Ξ_c^{(\prime,)}\bar D_1/Ξ_c^{(\prime,)}\bar D_2^*$ interactions

The discoveries of the $P_{ψs}^Λ(4459)$ and $P_{ψs}^Λ(4338)$ as the potential $Ξ_c\bar D^{(*)}$ molecules have sparked our curiosity in exploring a novel class of molecular $P_{ψs}^{Λ/Σ}$ pentaquarks. In this study, we carry out an investigation into the higher molecular pentaquarks, specifically focusing on the $P_{ψs}^{Λ/Σ}$ states arising from the $Ξ_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_1/Ξ_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_2^*$ interactions. Our approach employs the one-boson-exchange model, incorporating both the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect and the coupled channel effect. Our numerical results suggest that the $Ξ_c\bar D_1$ states with $I(J^P)=0({1}/{2}^+,\,{3}/{2}^+)$, the $Ξ_c\bar D_2^*$ states with $I(J^P)=0({3}/{2}^+,\,{5}/{2}^+)$, the $Ξ_c^{\prime}\bar D_1$ states with $I(J^P)=0({1}/{2}^+,\,{3}/{2}^+)$, the $Ξ_c^{\prime}\bar D_2^*$ states with $I(J^P)=0({3}/{2}^+,\,{5}/{2}^+)$, the $Ξ_c^{*}\bar D_1$ states with $I(J^P)=0({1}/{2}^+,\,{3}/{2}^+,\,{5}/{2}^+)$, and the $Ξ_c^{*}\bar D_2^*$ states with $I(J^P)=0({1}/{2}^+,\,{3}/{2}^+,\,{5}/{2}^+,\,{7}/{2}^+)$ can be recommended as the most promising molecular $P_{ψs}^Λ$ pentaquark candidates, and there may exist the potential molecular $P_{ψs}^Σ$ pentaquark candidates for several isovector $Ξ_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_1/Ξ_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_2^*$ states. With the higher statistical data accumulation at the LHCb's Run II and Run III status, there is the possibility that our predicted $P_{ψs}^{Λ/Σ}$ states can be detected through the weak decay of the $Ξ_b$ baryon, especially in hunting for the predicted $P_{ψs}^Λ$ states.

Exploring the electromagnetic properties of the $Ξ_c^{(\prime,\,)} \bar D_s^$ and $Ω_c^{()} \bar D_s^$ molecular states

This paper presents a systematic investigation of the electromagnetic properties of the hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks within the constituent quark model. Specifically, it focuses on two types of pentaquarks: the $Ξ_c^{(\prime,*)} \bar{D}_s^{*}$-type pentaquarks with double strangeness and the $Ω_{c}^{(*)}\bar D_s^{*}$-type pentaquarks with triple strangeness. The study explores various electromagnetic properties, including the magnetic moments, the transition magnetic moments, and the radiative decay behavior of these pentaquarks. To ensure realistic calculations, the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect and the coupled channel effect are taken into account. By examining the electromagnetic properties of the hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks with double and triple strangeness, this research contributes to the deeper understanding of their spectroscopic behavior. These findings form a valuable addition to the ongoing investigation into the broader spectrum of properties exhibited by the hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks.

Radiative decays and magnetic moments of the predicted $B_c$-like molecules

In this work, we first perform a systematic study of the transition magnetic moments and the corresponding radiative decay behaviors of the $B_c$-like molecular states associated with their mass spectra, where the constituent quark model is adopted by considering the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect. Our numerical results show that the radiative decay properties can be considered as the effective physical observable to reflect the inner structures of these $B_c$-like molecular states. Meanwhile, we also discuss the magnetic moments of the $B_c$-like molecular states, and we find that the magnetic moment properties can be used to distinguish the $B_c$-like molecular states from the conventional $B_c$ mesonic states, which have the same quantum numbers and similar masses. We expect that the present study can inspire the interest of the experimentalist in exploring the electromagnetic properties of the $B_c$-like molecular states, especially the radiative decay properties.

$Λ_c(2910)$ and $Λ_c(2940)$ as the conventional baryons dressed with the $D^*N$ channel

In this work, we treat $Λ_c(2910)^+$ and $Λ_c(2940)^+$ as the conventional $udc$ cores dressed with the $D^*N$ channel. We provide a possible interpretation to both $Λ_c(2910)^+$ and $Λ_c(2940)^+$ within the same framework. In the study, we consider not only the effects between the conventional triquark core and the $D^*N$ channel but also the $D^*N$-$D^*N$ interactions. The mass of $Λ_c$ state with $J^P=1/2^-$ is larger than that with $J^P=3/2^-$ in this unquenched picture, which is very different from the prediction of the conventional quenched quark model. Based on the mass spectrum, the spin-parity of $Λ_c(2940)^+$ is more likely to be $1/2^-$ while $Λ_c(2910)^+$ prefers $3/2^-$. We look forward to the future experiments can test our results with more precise experimental data.

Emergence of molecular-type characteristic spectrum of hidden-charm pentaquark with strangeness embodied in the $P_{ψs}^Λ(4338)$ and $P_{cs}(4459)$

Inspired by the newly observed $P_{ψs}^Λ(4338)$ and the reported $P_{cs}(4459)$, we indicate the existence of the molecular-type characteristic mass spectrum for hidden-charm pentaquark with strangeness. It shows that the $P_{cs}(4459)$ may contain two substructures corresponding to the $Ξ_c\bar{D}^*$ molecular states with $J^P=1/2^-$ and $3/2^-$, while there exists the corresponding $Ξ_c \bar{D}$ molecular state with $J^P=1/2^-$. As the prediction, we present another characteristic mass spectrum of the $Ξ_c^\prime\bar{D}^{(*)}$ molecular states. Experimental confirmation of these characteristic mass spectra is a crucial step of constructing hadronic molecular family.

Double-heavy tetraquarks with strangeness in the chiral quark model

Recently, some progresses have been made on the double-heavy tetraquarks in the experiments, such as $T_{cc}$ reported by LHCb Collaboration, and $X_{cc\bar{s}\bar{s}}$ reported by the Belle Collaboration. Coming on the heels of our previous work about $T_{cc}$ and $T_{bb}$, we present a study on the bound states and the resonant states of its companions $QQ\bar{q}\bar{s}$ ($Q=c,b; q=u, s$) tetraquarks with strange flavor in the chiral quark model. Two pictures, one with meson-meson picture, another with diquark-antidiquark picture and their couplings are considered in our calculations. Isospin violation is neglected herein. Our numerical analysis indicates that only the state $bb\bar{u}\bar{s}$ with $\frac{1}{2}(1^+)$ is bound, with the binding energy 3.5 MeV. Besides, we also find some resonant states for the double-heavy strange tetraquarks with the real scaling method.

A new group of doubly charmed molecule with $T$-doublet charmed meson pair

Inspired by the observation of the doubly charmed tetraquark state $T_{cc}^+$ at the LHCb Collaboration, we systematically study the $S$-wave interactions between a pair of charmed mesons ($D_{1},\,D_{2}^{\ast}$) in the $T$-doublet, where we adopt the one-boson-exchange model and consider both the $S$-$D$ wave mixing and coupled channel effects. Our numerical results suggest that the prime doubly charmed molecular tetraquark candidates are the $S$-wave $D_1D_1$ state with $I(J^P)=0(1^+)$, the $S$-wave $D_1{D}_2^{\ast}$ states with $I(J^P)=0(1^+,\,2^+,\,3^+)$, and the $S$-wave ${D}_2^{\ast}{D}_2^{\ast}$ states with $I(J^P)=0(1^+,\,3^+)$. The $S$-wave $D_1D_1$ state with $I(J^P)=1(2^+)$, the $S$-wave $D_1{D}_2^{\ast}$ state with $I(J^P)=1(3^+)$, and the $S$-wave ${D}_2^{\ast}{D}_2^{\ast}$ state with $I(J^P)=1(4^+)$ may be the possible isovector doubly charmed molecular tetraquark candidates. We expect the experiments like the LHCb or Belle II collaborations to search for these predicted doubly charmed molecular tetraquarks near the $D_1D_1$, $D_1D_2^*$, and $D_2^*D_2^*$ thresholds in future.

What can we learn from the electromagnetic properties of hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks with single strangeness?

Inspired by the observation of the $P_{cs}(4459)$ and $P_{ψs}^Λ(4338)$, we systematically investigate the magnetic moments, the transition magnetic moments, and the radiative decay behaviors of the $S$-wave isoscalar $Ξ_c^{(\prime)}\bar D^{(*)}$ molecular pentaquark states in this work. Our quantitative investigation shows that their electromagnetic properties can provide important hint to decode the inner structure of these discussed isoscalar $Ξ_c^{(\prime)}\bar D^{*}$ molecular pentaquarks. As the potential research issue, we suggest future experiment to focus on the electromagnetic properties of these isoscalar $Ξ_c^{(\prime)}\bar D^{(*)}$ molecular pentaquarks, which are a typical hidden-charm molecular pentaquark system with single strangeness.

Probing the electromagnetic properties of the $Σ_c^{()}D^{()}$-type doubly charmed molecular pentaquarks

In this work, we discuss the electromagnetic properties of the $S$-wave $Σ_c^{(*)}D^{(*)}$-type doubly charmed molecular pentaquarks, which have close relation to their inner structures. Both the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect and the coupled channel effect are taken into account. We analyze the magnetic moments for the $S$-wave $Σ_c^{(*)}D^{(*)}$ molecular states, and extend our theoretical framework to study the transition magnetic moments and the radiative decay widths between the $S$-wave $Σ_c^{(*)}D^{(*)}$ molecules. We discuss the relations between the magnetic moments and the transition magnetic moments for the $S$-wave $Σ_c^{(*)}D^{(*)}$-type doubly charmed molecular pentaquarks, which can be regarded as an indirect way to measure their magnetic moments experimentally. The present study may inspire experimentalist's interest in measuring the electromagnetic properties of the hadronic molecular states.

Correlation of the hidden-charm molecular tetraquarks and the charmoniumlike structures existing in the $B\to XYZ+K$

The molecular assignments to the three $P_c$ states and the similar production mechanism between the $Λ_b\to P_c+K$ and $B\to XYZ+K$ convince us the $B$ decaying to a charmonium state plus light mesons could be the appropriate production process to search for the charmoniumlike molecular tetraquarks. In this work, we systematically study the interactions between a charmed (charmed-strange) meson and an anti-charmed (anti-charm-strange) meson, which include the $D^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$, $\bar{D}^{(*)}\bar{D}_1$, $D^{(*)}\bar{D}_2^*$, $D_s^{(*)}\bar{D}_s^{(*)}$, ${D}_s^{(*)}\bar{D}_{s0}^*$, $D_s^{(*)}\bar{D}_{s1}^{\prime}$, ${D}_s^{(*)}\bar{D}_{s1}$, $D_s^{(*)}\bar{D}_{s2}^*$ systems. After adopting the one-boson-exchange effective potentials, our numerical results indicate that, on one hand, there can exist a serial of isoscalar charmoniumlike $\mathcal{D}\bar{\mathcal{D}}$ and $\mathcal{D}_s\bar{\mathcal{D}}_s$ molecular states, on the other hand, we can fully exclude the charged charmoniumlike states as the isovector charmoniumlike molecules. Meanwhile, we discuss the two-body hidden-charm decay channels for the obtained $\mathcal{D}\bar{\mathcal{D}}$ and $\mathcal{D}_s\bar{\mathcal{D}}_s$ molecules, especially the $D^{*}\bar{D}^{*}$ molecular tetraquarks. By analyzing the experimental data collected from the $B\to XYZ+K$ and the mass spectrum and two-body hidden-charm decay channels for the obtained $\mathcal{D}\bar{\mathcal{D}}$ and $\mathcal{D}_s\bar{\mathcal{D}}_s$ molecules, we find several possible hints of the existence of the charmoniumlike molecular tetraquarks, i.e., a peculiar characteristic mass spectrum of the isoscalar $D^*\bar{D}^*$ molecular systems can be applied to identify the charmoniumlike molecule. We look forward to the future experiments like the LHCb, Belle II, and BESIII Collaborations can test our results with more precise experimental data.

Newly observed $X(4630)$: a new charmoniumlike molecule

Very recently, the LHCb Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN observed new resonance $X(4630)$. The $X(4630)$ is decoded as a charmoniumlike molecule with hidden-strange quantum number well in the one boson exchange mechanism. Especially, the study of its hidden-charmed decays explicitly shows the dominant role of $J/ψϕ$ among all allowed hidden-charmed decays of $X(4630)$, which enforces the conclusion of $X(4630)$ as a charmoniumlike molecule. The discovery of the $X(4630)$ is a crucial step of constructing charmoniumlike molecule zoo.

Investigating new type of doubly-charmed molecular tetraquarks composed of the charmed meson in $H$-doublet and the charmed meson in $T$-doublet

Stimulated by the newly reported doubly-charmed tetraquark state $T_{cc}^+$ by LHCb, we carry out a systematic investigation of the $S$-wave interactions between the charmed meson ($D,\,D^{*}$) in $H$-doublet and the charmed meson ($D_{1},\,D_{2}^{*}$) in $T$-doublet by adopting the one-boson-exchange model. Both the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect and the coupled channel effect are taken into account. By performing a quantitative calculation, we suggest that the $S$-wave $D^{*} D_{1}$ states with $I(J^{P})=0(0^{-},\,1^{-})$ and the $S$-wave $D^{*}D_{2}^{*}$ state with $I(J^{P})=0(1^{-})$ should be viewed as the most promising candidates of the doubly-charmed molecular tetraquark states, and the $S$-wave $DD_{1}$ state with $I(J^{P})=0(1^{-})$, the $S$-wave $DD_{2}^{*}$ state with $I(J^{P})=0(2^{-})$, and the $S$-wave $D^{*}D_{2}^{*}$ state with $I(J^{P})=0(2^{-})$ are the possible doubly-charmed molecular tetraquark candidates. With the accumulation of experimental data at Run III and after High-Luminosity-LHC upgrade, these predicted doubly-charmed molecular tetraquark states can be accessible at LHCb in the near future.

Hidden-charm pentaquarks with triple strangeness due to the $Ω_{c}^{()}\bar{D}_s^{()}$ interactions

Motivated by the successful interpretation of these observed $P_c$ and $P_{cs}$ states under the meson-baryon molecular picture, we systematically investigate the possible hidden-charm molecular pentaquark states with triple strangeness which is due to the $Ω_{c}^{(*)}\bar{D}_s^{(*)}$ interactions. We perform a dynamical calculation of the possible hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks with triple strangeness by the one-boson-exchange model, where the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect and the coupled channel effect are taken into account in our calculation. Our results suggest that the $Ω_{c}\bar D_s^*$ state with $J^P={3}/{2}^{-}$ and the $Ω_{c}^{*}\bar D_s^*$ state with $J^P={5}/{2}^{-}$ can be recommended as the candidates of the hidden-charm molecular pentaquark with triple strangeness. Furthermore, we discuss the two-body hidden-charm strong decay behaviors of these possible hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks with triple strangeness by adopting the quark-interchange model. These predictions are expected to be tested at the LHCb, which can be as a potential research issue with more accumulated experimental data in near future.

Prediction of hidden-charm pentaquarks with double strangeness

Inspired by the recent evidence of $P_{cs}(4459)$ reported by LHCb, we continue to perform the investigation of hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks with double strangeness, which are composed of an $S$-wave charmed baryon $Ξ_c^{(\prime,*)}$ and an $S$-wave anti-charmed-strange meson $\bar{D}_s^{(*)}$. Both the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect and the coupled channel effect are taken into account in realistic calculation. A dynamics calculation shows that there may exist two types of hidden-charm molecular pentaquark with double strangeness, i.e., the $Ξ_{c}^{*}\bar D_s^*$ molecular state with $J^P={5}/{2}^{-}$ and the $Ξ_{c}^{\prime}\bar D_s^*$ molecular state with $J^P={3}/{2}^{-}$. According to this result, we strongly suggest the experimental exploration of hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks with double strangeness. Facing such opportunity, obviously the LHCb will have great potential to hunt for them, with the data accumulation at Run III and after High-Luminosity-LHC upgrade.

Exotic double-charm molecular states with hidden or open strangeness and around $4.5\sim 4.7$ GeV

In this work, we investigate the interactions between the charmed-strange meson ($D_s, D_s^{*}$) in $H$-doublet and the (anti-)charmed-strange meson ($D_{s1}, D_{s2}^{*}$) in $T$-doublet, where the one boson exchange model is adopted by considering the $S$-$D$ wave mixing and the coupled-channel effects. By extracting the effective potentials for the discussed $H_s\bar{T}_s$ and $H_s{T}_s$ systems, we try to find the bound state solutions for the corresponding systems. We predict the possible hidden-charm hadronic molecular states with hidden strangeness, i.e., the $D_s^{*}\bar D_{s1}+c.c.$ states with $J^{PC}$=$0^{--}, 0^{-+}$ and the $D_s^{*}\bar D_{s2}^{*}+c.c.$ states with $J^{PC}$=$1^{--}, 1^{-+}$. Applying the same theoretical framework, we also discuss the $H_s T_s$ systems. Unfortunately, the existence of the open-charm and open-strange molecular states corresponding to the $H_s T_s$ systems can be excluded.

Probing new types of $P_c$ states inspired by the interaction between an $S$-wave charmed baryon and an anticharmed meson in a $\bar T$ doublet state

Inspired by the observations of three $P_c$ states, we systematically investigate interactions between an $S$-wave charmed baryon $\mathcal{B}_{c}^{(*)}=Λ_c/Σ_c/Σ_c^{*}$ and an anticharmed meson $\bar T=\bar D_1/\bar D_2^*$ with the one-pion-exchange potential model and the one-boson-exchange potential model, and search for possible new types of $P_c$ states with the structures of $\mathcal{B}_{c}^{(*)}\bar T$. Both $S$-$D$ wave mixing and coupled channel effects are considered. Our results suggest that in some $\mathcal{B}_{c}^{(*)}\bar T$ systems there are ideal candidates of new types of $P_c$ states, i.e., the $Σ_c\bar{D}_1$ state with $I(J^P)=1/2(1/2^+)$, the $Σ_c\bar{D}_2^*$ state with $I(J^P)=1/2(3/2^+)$, the $Σ_c^*\bar{D}_1$ state with $I(J^P)=1/2(1/2^+)$, and the $Σ_c^*\bar{D}_2^*$ states with $I(J^P)=1/2(1/2^+, 3/2^+)$, and we suggest that these predicted new types of $P_c$ states can be detected in the process $Λ_b^0 \to ψ(2S) p π^{-}$. Meanwhile, we also extend our study to the interactions between an $S$-wave charmed baryon and a charmed meson in a $T$ doublet, and we predict a series of double-charm molecular pentaquarks.
