Abstract

Inspired by the progress of the experimental search of the NΩN\Omega dibaryon by the STAR collaboration, we study NΩˉN\bar{\Omega} systems in the framework of quark delocalization color screening model. Our results show that the attraction between NN and Ωˉ\bar{\Omega} is a little bit larger than that between NN and Ω\Omega, which indicates that it is more possible for the NΩˉN\bar{\Omega} than the NΩN\Omega system to form bound states. The dynamic calculations state that both the JP=1+J^{P}=1^{+} and 2+2^{+} NΩˉN\bar{\Omega} systems are bound states. The binding energy of these two states are deeper than that of NΩN\Omega systems with JP=2+J^{P}=2^{+}, and the NΩN\Omega system with JP=1+J^{P}=1^{+} is unbound. The calculation of the low-energy scattering phase shifts, scattering length and the effective range also supports the existence of the NΩˉN\bar{\Omega} bound states with JP=1+J^{P}=1^{+} and 2+2^{+}. So the NΩˉN\bar{\Omega} states are better hexaquark states and stronger signals are expected in experiments.
