Abstract

The discovery of a new charged structure in the K+K^+ recoil-mass spectrum near the DsD0/DsD0D^-_s D^{*0}/D^{*-}_sD^0 threshold, dubbed Zcs(3985)Z_{cs}(3985)^-, reinforce the idea that the structure of hadrons goes beyond the naive qqqqqq and the qqˉq\bar q structures. The existence of this state, with quark content ccˉsuˉc\bar c s\bar u, can be expected from the well-established Zc(3900)±Z_c(3900)^\pm and Zc(4020)Z_c(4020) states using SU(3) flavor symmetry. The ZcZ_c structures have been explained using the chiral constituent quark model in a coupled-channels calculation and, in this work, we undertake the study of the Zcs(3985)Z_{cs}(3985)^- using the same model. We are able to reproduce the K+K^+ recoil-mass spectrum without any fine tuning of the model parameters. The study of the analytical structure of the S-matrix allows us to conclude that the structure is due to the presence of one virtual pole. A second state, the SU(3) flavor partner of the Zc(4020)Z_c(4020) is predicted at  ⁣ ⁣4110\sim\!\! 4110 MeV/c2c^2. New states in the hidden bottom strange sector are also predicted.
