Abstract

Inspired by the discovery of two pentaquarks Pc(4380)P_{c}(4380) and Pc(4450)P_{c}(4450) at the LHCb detector, we study possible hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks in the framework of quark delocalization color screening model. Our results suggest that both NηcN\eta_{c} with IJP=1212IJ^{P}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{1}{2}^{-} and NJ/ψNJ/\psi with IJP=1232IJ^{P}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{3}{2}^{-} are bounded by channels coupling. However, NJ/ψNJ/\psi with IJP=1232IJ^{P}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{3}{2}^{-} may be a resonance state in the DD-wave NηcN\eta_{c} scattering process. Moreover, Pc(4380)P_{c}(4380) can be explained as the molecular pentaquark of ΣcD\Sigma^{*}_{c}D with quantum numbers IJP=1232IJ^{P}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{3}{2}^{-}. The state ΣcD\Sigma^{*}_{c}D^{*} with IJP=1252IJ^{P}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{5}{2}^{-} is a resonance, it may not be a good candidate of the observed Pc(4450)P_{c}(4450) because of the opposite parity of the state to Pc(4380)P_{c}(4380), although the mass of the state is not far from the experimental value. In addition, the calculation is extended to the hidden-bottom pentaquarks, the similar properties as that of hidden-charm pentaquarks system are obtained.
