We propose to measure the photo-production cross section of $J/{\psi}$ near threshold, in search of the recently observed LHCb hidden-charm resonances $P_c$(4380) and $P_c$(4450) consistent with 'pentaquarks'. The observation of these…

Accounting for the LHCb observation that the reported hidden-charm strange pentaquark $P_{cs}(4459)^0$ can split into two substructures, $P_{cs}(4455)^0$ and $P_{cs}(4468)^0$, with a mass difference of 13 MeV as well as the newly observed…
