Abstract

Different experiments have confirmed that the Ds0(2317)D_{s0}^{\ast}(2317) and Ds1(2460)D_{s1}(2460) mesons are very narrow states located, respectively, below the DKDK and DKD^{\ast}K thresholds. This is markedly in contrast with the expectations of naive quark models and heavy quark symmetry. We address the mass shifts of the csˉc\bar{s} ground states with quantum numbers JP=0+J^{P}=0^{+} (Ds0(2317)D_{s0}^{\ast}(2317)) and JP=1+J^{P}=1^{+} (Ds1(2460)D_{s1}(2460)) using a nonrelativistic constituent quark model in which quark-antiquark and meson-meson degrees of freedom are incorporated. The quark model has been applied to a wide range of hadronic observables and thus the model parameters are completely constrained. We observe that the coupling of the 0+0^{+} (1+)(1^{+}) meson sector to the DKDK (DK)(D^{\ast}K) threshold is a key feature in lowering the masses of the corresponding Ds0(2317)D_{s0}^{\ast}(2317) and Ds1(2460)D_{s1}(2460) states predicted by the naive quark model, but also in describing the Ds1(2536)D_{s1}(2536) meson as the 1+1^{+} state of the jqP=3/2+j_{q}^{P}=3/2^{+} doublet predicted by heavy quark symmetry and thus reproducing its strong decay properties. Two features of our formalism cannot be address nowadays by other approaches: the coupling of the DD-wave DKD^{\ast}K threshold in the JP=1+J^{P}=1^{+} csˉc\bar{s} channel and the computation of the probabilities associated with different Fock components in the physical state.
