Quark model estimate of hidden-charm pentaquark resonances

Nuclear Theory 2018-10-31 v1

Abstract

A quark model, which reproduces the ground-state mesons and baryons, i.e., the threshold energies, is applied to the qqqccˉqqqc\bar c configurations, where qq is a light quark and~cc the charmed quark. In the calculation, several open channels are explicitly included such as \Jpsi+N\Jpsi +N, ηc+N\eta_c+N, Λc+D\Lambda_c +D, etc. To distinguish genuine resonances and estimate their width, we employ Gaussian Expansion Method supplemented by the real scaling method (stabilization). No resonance is found at the energies of the Pc(4380)P_c(4380) and Pc(4450)P_c(4450) pentaquarks. On the other hand, there is a sharp resonant state at 4690\,MeV with J=1/2J=1/2^- state and another one at 4920\,MeV with J=3/2J=3/2^- state, which have a compact structure.
