Quark-model search for compact ccuds pentaquark states
A potential quark model is used to search for a 𝑃0𝑐¯𝑐𝑠=(𝑐¯𝑐𝑢𝑑𝑠)0, 𝐽𝑃 =1/2− pentaquark state that has recently been observed experimentally by LHCb Collaboration at 4338.2 MeV, with a width of 7.0 MeV and high statistical significance >15𝜎. Our model Hamiltonian reproduces the masses of the...

| Summary: | A potential quark model is used to search for a 𝑃0𝑐¯𝑐𝑠=(𝑐¯𝑐𝑢𝑑𝑠)0, 𝐽𝑃 =1/2− pentaquark state that has recently been observed experimentally by LHCb Collaboration at 4338.2 MeV, with a width of 7.0 MeV and high statistical significance >15𝜎. Our model Hamiltonian reproduces the masses of the low-lying charmed and strange hadrons. We use the Gaussian expansion method to solve the five-body Schrödinger equation. Employing the real scaling method, including the relevant meson-baryon thresholds explicitly, sharp resonances are distinguished from the meson-baryon scattering states. We incorporate new color states of the color-octet meson and baryon configurations as well as the color-singlet configurations for the five-quark states. We find no 𝐽𝑃 =1/2− resonance close to the observed state, and also none in the 𝐽𝑃 =3/2− state. This increases the likelihood that 𝑃0𝑐¯𝑐𝑠 is a Ξ𝑐¯𝐷 hadronic molecule rather than a compact state. |
