Abstract

In the present work, we assign the newly observed Pc(4312)P_c(4312) as a I(JP)=12(12)I(J^P)= \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2})^- molecular state composed of ΣcDˉ\Sigma_c \bar{D}, while Pc(4440)P_c(4440) and Pc(4457)P_c(4457) as ΣcDˉ\Sigma_c \bar{D}^\ast molecular states with I(JP)=12(12)I(J^P)= \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2})^- and 12(32)\frac{1}{2} (\frac{3}{2})^-, respectively. In this molecular scenario, we investigate the PcJ/ψpP_c\to J/\psi p process of these three states and further predict the ratios of the B(PcJ/ψp)\mathcal B(P_c\to J/\psi p) and those of B(ΛbPcK)\mathcal B(\Lambda_b\to P_c K) between these three states, which could serve as a crucial test of the present molecular scenario.
