Hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks and their charm-strange partners

Abstract

In the framework of one-pion-exchange (OPE) model, we study the hidden-charm and charm-strange molecular pentaquark systems composed of a heavy baryon $(\Sigma_c, \Sigma_c^*)$ and a vector meson $(\bar{K}^*, \bar{D}^*)$, where the S-D mixing effect is considered in our calculation. Our result shows that the $\Sigma_c\bar{D}^*$ molecular state with $(I=1/2,J^P=3/2^-)$ and the $\Sigma_c^*\bar{D}^*$ molecular state with $(I=1/2,J^P=5/2^-)$ exist in the mass range of the observed $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4450)$, respectively. Moreover, we predict two other hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks with configurations $\Sigma_c\bar{D}^*$ $(I=3/2, J^P=1/2^-)$ and $\Sigma_c^*\bar{D}^*$ $(I=3/2, J^P=1/2^-)$ and two charm-strange molecular pentaquarks $P_{cs}(3340)$ and $P_{cs}(3400)$ corresponding to the $\Sigma_c\bar{K}^*$ configuration with $(I=1/2, J^P=3/2^-)$ and the $\Sigma_c^*\bar{K}^*$ configuration with $(I=1/2, J^P=5/2^-)$, respectively. Additionally, we also predict some hidden-bottom $\Sigma_b^{(*)}B^*$ and $B_c$-like $\Sigma_c^{(*)}B^*/\Sigma_b^{(*)}\bar{D}^*$ pentaquarks.
