Abstract

We briefly summarize recent works on the identification of the excited Ωc\Omega_c's found by the LHCb Collaboration. Within the framework of a pion mean-field approach, the following scenario is the most favorable: While three of the excited Ωc\Omega_c's belong to the excited baryon sextet, two of them with the smaller decay widths can be identified as the members of the anti-decapentaplet which is one of the lowest-lying representations. It implies that these two Ωc\Omega_c's, i.e. Ω(3050)\Omega(3050) and Ω(3119)\Omega(3119) are most probably the exotic heavy pentaquark baryons.
