Kaon-induced production of strange hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks $P^Λ_{ψs}$ from proton

In this work, we investigate the kaon-induced production of strange hidden-charm pentaquark $P^Λ_{ψs}$ states, including the $P^Λ_{ψs}(4459)$ and $P^Λ_{ψs}(4338)$ observed by the LHCb collaboration. Coupled-channel interactions involving the channels $\bar{K}N$, $Ξ_c^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$, $Ξ'_c\bar{D}^{(*)}$, $Λ_c\bar{D}_s^{(*)}$, and $ΛJ/ψ$ are studied using effective Lagrangians to describe these interactions. The potential kernels are constructed within the one-boson-exchange model and implemented into the quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation to calculate the scattering amplitudes. From these amplitudes, the partial-wave cross sections for kaon-induced production are predicted alongside the poles corresponding to strange hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks. The analysis reveals complex structures in the cross sections due to molecular states. A structure near the $Ξ_c\bar{D}$ threshold is predicted in the $Λ_c\bar{D}_s$ channel, corresponding to $P^Λ_{ψs}(4338)$. Both molecular states near the $Ξ_c\bar{D}^*$ threshold with $J^P = 1/2^-$ and $J^P = 3/2^-$, associated with $P^Λ_{ψs}(4459)$, produce peaks in the $Ξ'_c\bar{D}$ channel, which vary significantly with the cutoff. Additionally, a molecular state with $J^P = 3/2^-$ near the $Ξ_c^*\bar{D}$ threshold gives rise to a peak in the $Ξ_c\bar{D}^*$ channel. In the higher energy region, from 4350 to 4550 MeV, although the cross sections in the $Λ_c\bar{D}_s^{(*)}$ channels are substantial, no distinct structures corresponding to strange hidden-charm pentaquarks are identified, apart from some threshold-related cusps. These results provide valuable theoretical insights and serve as a foundation for future experimental studies of strange hidden-charm pentaquarks using kaon beams at J-PARC and JLab.

Production of open-charm pentaquark molecules in decay $B^0 \rightarrow \bar{D}^0 p \bar{p}$

This study investigates the production of open-charm pentaquark molecular states, specifically $N\bar{D}^*$ and $\bar{N}\bar{D}^*$, within the $B^0 \rightarrow \bar{D}^0 p \bar{p}$ decay. We examine the invariant mass spectra of $p\bar{D}^0$ and $\bar{p}\bar{D}^0$, incorporating the rescattering process through a quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation approach. Our findings suggest the possible identification of the isoscalar $\bar{N}\bar{D}^*$ molecule with $3/2^+$ as the antiparticle partner of $Λ_c(2940)$ in the $\bar{p}\bar{D}^0$ mass spectrum. Although a molecular state near the $\bar{N}\bar{D}$ threshold with $1/2^-$ exists, its signal is weak, indicating that the $B^0 \rightarrow \bar{D}^0 p \bar{p}$ decay may not be ideal for its detection. A distinct signal of the isovector $N\bar{D}^*$ molecule with $1/2^-$ may appear in the $p\bar{D}^0$ invariant mass spectrum, while the signal for the $3/2^-$ state remains very weak. We emphasize the importance of the three-body decay of the bottom meson as a valuable method for studying open-charm molecules and advocate for increased attention and more precise experimental measurements of the $B^0 \rightarrow \bar{D}^0 p \bar{p}$ decay.

Possible molecular states from interactions of charmed strange baryons

In this work, we perform an investigation of possible molecular states composed of two charmed strange baryons from the $Ξ_c^{(',*)}Ξ_c^{(',*)}$ interaction, and their hidden-charm hidden-strange partners from the $Ξ_c^{(',*)}\barΞ_c^{(',*)}$ interaction. With the help of the heavy quark chiral effective Lagrangians, the interactions of charmed strange baryons are described with light meson exchanges. The potential kernels are constructed, and inserted into the quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation. The bound states are produced from most interactions considered, which suggests that strong attractions exist widely between the charmed strange baryons. Experimental searching for such molecular states is suggested in future high-precision measurements.

Possible molecular dibaryons with $csssqq$ quarks and their baryon-antibaryon partners

In this work, we systematically investigate the charmed-strange dibaryon systems with $csssqq$ quarks and their baryon-antibaryon partners from the interactions $Ξ^{(',*)}_{c}Ξ^{(*)}$, $Ω^{(*)}_cΛ$, $Ω^{(*)}_cΣ^{(*)}$, $Λ_cΩ$ and $Σ^{(*)}_cΩ$ and their baryon-antibaryon partners from interactions $Ξ^{(',*)}_{c}\barΞ^{(*)}$, $Ω^{(*)}_c\barΛ$, $Ω^{(*)}_c\barΣ^{(*)}$, $Λ_c\barΩ$ and $Σ^{(*)}_c\barΩ$. The potential kernels are constructed with the help of effective Lagrangians under SU(3), heavy quark, and chiral symmetries to describe these interactions. To search for possible molecular states, the kernels are inserted into the quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation, which is solved to find poles from scattering amplitude. The results suggest that 36 and 24 bound states can be found in the baryon-baryon and baryon-antibaryon interactions, respectively. However, much large values of parameter $α$ are required to produce the bound states from the baryon-antibaryon interactions, which questions the existence of these bound states. Possible coupled-channel effect are considered in the current work to estimate the couplings of the molecular states to the channels considered.

$P^Λ_{ψs}(4459)$ and $P^Λ_{ψs}(4338)$ as molecular states in $ J/ψΛ$ invariant mass spectra

Recently, the LHCb Collaboration has reported two strange hidden-charm pentaquark states named $P^Λ_{ψs}(4459)$ and $P^Λ_{ψs}(4338)$ in the $ J/ψΛ$ invariant mass spectra of decays $Ξ_b^-$$\to$$ J/ψΛK^-$ and $B^-$$\to$$J/ψΛ\bar{p}$,respectively. In this work, we perform a coupled-channel study of the interactions $Ξ_c^*\bar{D}^*$, $Ξ'_c\bar{D}^*$, $Ξ^*_c\bar{D}$, $Ξ_c\bar{D}^*$, $Ξ'_c\bar{D}$, $Λ_c\bar{D}_s^{*}$, $Ξ_c\bar{D}$, $Λ_c\bar{D}_s$, and $ΛJ/ψ$ in the quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation approach to estimate the $ J/ψΛ$ invariant mass spectra. With the help of effective Lagrangians, the potential kernel can be constructed by meson exchanges to obtain the scattering amplitudes, from which the poles of the bound states and the invariant mass spectra can be reached. The coupled-channel calculation results in that the width of state $Ξ_c\bar{D}^{*}(1/2^-)$ is about $18$~MeV and that of state $Ξ_c\bar{D}^{*}(3/2^-)$ is only about $1.6$~MeV. By comparison with experimental data, it indicates that the structure $P^Λ_{ψs}(4459)$ is mainly from the contribution from the $Ξ_c \bar{D}^{*}(1/2^-)$ state while the role of state $Ξ_c \bar{D}^{*}(3/2^-)$ cannot be excluded. The line shape of the structure $P^Λ_{ψs}(4338)$ can be reproduced roughly by a narrow molecular state from the $Ξ_c \bar{D}$ interaction with $J^P$=$1/2^-$, which is extremely close to the threshold, with a large interference effect. Besides, an additional state $Ξ'_c \bar{D}(1/2^-)$ is suggested to be observed as a dip structure in the $J/ψΛ$ invariant mass spectrum.

Possible molecular states from interactions of charmed baryons

In this work, we perform a systematic study of possible molecular states composed of two charmed baryons including hidden-charm systems $Λ_c\barΛ_c$, $Σ_c^{(*)}\barΣ_c^{(*)}$, and $Λ_c\barΣ_c^{(*)}$, and corresponding double-charm systems $Λ_cΛ_c$, $Σ_c^{(*)}Σ_c^{(*)}$, and $Λ_cΣ_c^{(*)}$. With the help of the heavy quark chiral effective Lagrangians, the interactions are described with $π$, $ρ$, $η$, $ω$, $ϕ$, and $σ$ exchanges. The potential kernels are constructed, and inserted into the quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation. The bound states from the interactions considered is studied by searching for the poles of the scattering amplitude. The results suggest that strong attractions exist in both hidden-charm and double-charm systems considered in the current work, and bound states can be produced in most of the systems. More experiment studies about these molecular states are suggested though the nucleon-nucleon collison at LHC and nucleon-antinucleon collison at $\rm \bar{P}ANDA$.

Possible charmed-strange molecular dibaryons

In this work, we systematically investigate the dibaryons with charm number $C$=1 and strangeness number $S$=$\pm$ 1 from the interactions of a charmed baryon and a strange baryon $Λ_cΛ$, $Λ_cΣ^{(*)}$, $Σ_c^{(*)}Λ$, and $Σ^{(*)}_cΣ^{(*)}$, and corresponding interactions of a charmed baryon and an antistrange baryon $Λ_c\barΛ$, $Λ_c\barΣ^{(*)}$, $Σ^{(*)}_c\barΛ$, and $Σ^{(*)}_c\barΣ^{(*)}$. With the help of the effective Lagrangians with $SU(3)$, heavy quark, and chiral symmetries, the potentials of the interactions considered are constructed by light meson exchanges. To search for the possible molecules, the quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation with the interaction potential kernel is solved to find poles from scattering amplitude. The results suggest that attractions widely exist in charmed-strange system with $C$=1 and $S$=$-1$. The $S$-wave bound states can be produced from most of the channels. Few bound states are also produced from the charmed-antistrange interactions. Couple-channel effect are considered in the current work to discuss the couplings of the molecular states to the channels considered. More experimental research for these charmed-strange dibaryons are suggested.

Systematical study of $Ω_c$-like molecular states from interactions $Ξ_c^{(',)}\bar{K}^{()}$ and $Ξ^{()}D^{()}$

In this work, the $Ω_c$-like molecular states are systematically investigated in a quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation approach. The relevant interactions $Ξ_c^{(*,')}\bar{K}^{(*)}$, $Ξ^{(*)}D^{(*)}$, and $Ω^{(*)}_c(π/η/ρ/ω)$ are described by light meson exchanges with the help of the effective Lagrangians with SU(3), chiral, and heavy quark symmetries. The obtained potential kernels of considered interactions are inserted into the quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation, and coupled-channel calculations are performed to find possible molecular states and its couplings to the channels considered. The results suggest that an isoscalar state can be produced from the $Ξ^*_c\bar{K}$ interaction with spin parity $3/2^-$, which can be related to state $Ω_c(3120)$. And its isoscalar partner is predicted with a dominant decay in the $Ω_c^*π$ channel. The isoscalar and isovector states with $1/2^-$ can be produced from the $Ξ'_c\bar{K}$ interaction with a threshold close to the mass of the $Ω_c(3050)$ and $Ω_c(3065)$. Their couplings to the $Ξ_c \bar{K}$ channel are very weak, and the isovector one has strong coupling to $Ω_cπ$. High precision measurement is helpful to confirm or search such molecular states. Experimental search of states with higher masses generated from interactions $Ξ^{(*,')}_c \bar{K}^*$ and $Ξ^* D^{(*)}$ are also suggested by the current results.

Heavy-strange meson molecules and possible candidates $D^*_{s0}(2317)$, $D_{s1}(2460)$, and $X_0(2900)$

In this work, we systematically investigate the heavy-strange meson systems, $D^{(*)}K^{(*)}/\bar{B}^{(*)}K^{(*)}$ and $\bar{D}^{(*)}K^{(*)}/B^{(*)}K^{(*)}$, to study possible molecules in a quasipotenial Bethe-Salpter equation approach together with the one-boson exchange model. The potential is achieved with the help of the hidden-gauge Lagrangians. Molecular states are found from all six $S$-wave isoscalar interactions of $D^{(*)}K^{(*)}$ or $\bar{B}^{(*)}K^{(*)}$. The charmed-strange mesons $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ can be related to the ${D}K$ and $D^*K$ states with spin parities $0^+$ and $1^+$, respectively. In the current model, the $\bar{B}K^*$ molecular state with $1^+$ is the best candidate of the recent observed $B_{sJ}(6158)$. Four molecular states are produced from the interactions of $\bar{D}^{(*)}K^{(*)}$ or $B^{(*)}K^{(*)}$. The relation between the $\bar{D}^*{K}^*$ molecular state with $0^+$ and the $X_0(2900)$ is also discussed. No isovector molecular states are found from the interactions considered. The current results are helpful to understand the internal structure of $D^*_{s0}(2317)$, $D_{s1}(2460)$, $X_0(2900)$, and new $B_{sJ}$ states. The experimental research for more heavy-strange meson molecules is suggested.

Hidden-bottom molecular states from $Σ^{()}_bB^{()}-Λ_bB^{(*)}$ interaction

In this work, we study possible hidden-bottom molecular pentaquarks $P_b$ from coupled-channel $Σ^{(*)}_bB^{(*)}-Λ_bB^{(*)}$ interaction in the quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation approach. In isodoublet sector with $I=1/2$, with the same reasonable parameters the interaction produces seven molecular states, a state near $ Σ_bB$ threshold with spin parity $J^P=1/2^-$, a state near $Σ^*_bB$ threshold with $3/2^-$, two states near $Σ_bB^*$ threshold with $1/2^-$ and $3/2^-$, and three states near $Σ_b^*B^*$ threshold with $1/2^-$, $3/2^-$, and $5/2^-$. The results suggest that three states near $Σ_b^* B^*$ threshold and two states near $Σ_b B^*$ threshold are very close, respectively, which may be difficult to distinguish in experiment without partial wave analysis. Compared with the hidden-charm pentaquark, the $P_b$ states are relatively narrow with widths at an order of magnitude of 1 MeV or smaller. The importance of each channel considered is also discussed, and it is found that the $Λ_b B^*$ channel provides important contribution for the widths of those states. In isoquartet sector with $I=3/2$, cutoff should be considerably enlarged to achieve bound states from the interaction, which makes the existence of such states unreliable. The results in the current work are helpful for searching for hidden-bottom molecular pentaquarks in future experiments, such as the COMPASS, J-PARC, and the Electron Ion Collider in China (EicC).
