Abstract

Using the one-boson-exchange model, we investigate the ΛcDˉs\Lambda_c\bar{D}_s^*, ΣcDˉs\Sigma_c\bar{D}_s^*, ΣcDˉs\Sigma_c^*\bar{D}_s^*, ΞcDˉ\Xi_c\bar{D}^*, ΞcDˉ\Xi_c'\bar{D}^*, and ΞcDˉ\Xi_c^*\bar{D}^* interactions by considering the one-eta-exchange and/or one-pion-exchange contributions. We further predict the existence of hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks. Promising candidates for hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks include a ΞcDˉ\Xi_c'\bar{D}^* state with 0(12)0(\frac{1}{2}^-) and the ΞcDˉ\Xi_c^*\bar{D}^* states with 0(12)0(\frac{1}{2}^-) and 0(32)0(\frac{3}{2}^-). Experimental searches for these predicted hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks are an interesting future research topic for experiments like LHCb.
