Abstract

In present work, we perform a coupled-channel analysis of B(s)()Bˉ(s)()B^{(*)}_{(s)}\bar{B}^{(*)}_{(s)} systems with the one-boson-exchange potentials. We first study the I(JPC)=1(1+)I(J^{PC})=1(1^{+-}) BBˉ/BBˉB\bar{B}^{*}/B^{*}\bar{B}^{*} system to describe the Zb(10610)Z_{b}(10610) and Zb(10650)Z_{b}(10650) particles as molecular states and determine the reasonable range of cutoff parameter Λ\Lambda. Then, other B(s)()Bˉ(s)()B^{(*)}_{(s)}\bar{B}^{(*)}_{(s)} combinations with different quantum numbers are systematically investigated. Some bound states and resonances appear in the isoscalar systems, while only several shallow bound states exist for isovector systems. Far away from the excited conventional PP-wave bottomium, these predicted states can be easily identified as exotic particles both theoretically and experimentally. Moreover, the ηb(nS)/Υ(nS)\eta_b(nS)/\Upsilon(nS) plus light mesons are the excellent final states to search for the bound states, while the BBˉ+h.c.B\bar B^*+h.c. and BBˉB^* \bar B^* channels are suitable for the resonances. We highly recommend that the LHCb and Belle II Collaborations can hunt for these bottomonium-like states in future.
