Abstract

It was proposed that the narrow Pc(4450)P_c(4450) structure observed by the LHCb Collaboration in the reaction ΛbJ/ψpK\Lambda_b\to J/\psi p K might be due to a triangle singularity around the χc1\chi_{c1}--proton threshold at 4.45~GeV. We discuss the occurrence of a similar triangle singularity in the J/ψpJ/\psi p invariant mass distribution for the decay ΛbJ/ψpπ\Lambda_b\to J/\psi p \pi, which could explain the bump around 4.45~GeV in the data. More precise measurements of this process would provide valuable information towards an understanding of the PcP_c structures.
