Recently, the LHCb Collaboration has reported two strange hidden-charm pentaquark states named $P^\Lambda_{\psi s}(4459)$ and $P^\Lambda_{\psi s}(4338)$ in the $ J/\psi \Lambda$ invariant mass spectra of decays $\Xi_b^-$$\to$$ J/\psi…
We investigate hidden-charm pentaquark states using an off-shell coupled-channel formalism involving heavy meson and singly heavy baryon scattering. Our approach utilizes an effective Lagrangian to construct the kernel amplitudes, which…
The nature of the $P_{c}(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ pentaquarks is a fascinating theoretical question. Within the molecular picture their more usual interpretation is that of $I=\tfrac{1}{2}$ $\bar{D} \Sigma_c$ and $\bar{D}^*…
New LHCb Collaboration results on pentaquarks with hidden charm [1] are discussed. These results fit nicely in the hadrocharmonium pentaquark scenario [2,3]. In the new data the old LHCb pentaquark $P_c(4450)$ splits into two states…
Very recently, two hidden-charmed resonances $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4450)$ consistent with pentaquark states were observed at the LHCb detector. The two $P_c$ states locate just below the $\bar{D}\Sigma^*_c$ and $\bar{D}^*\Sigma_c$ thresholds…

The first four-dimensional amplitude analysis of the $B^{+} \to \psi(2S) K_{\text{S}}^{0} \pi^{+}$ decay is performed with proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at $\sqrt{s} = 13~\rm{TeV}$, corresponding to an…
In this paper we study the $J/\Psi p$ spectroscopy in the process of $\Lambda_b\to J/\Psi p K^-$. The final state interactions of coupled channel $J/\Psi p$ ~-~ $\bar{D} \Sigma_c$~-~$\bar{D}^{*} \Sigma_c$ are constructed based on K-matrix…
Observations of exotic structures in the $J/\psi p$ channel, that we refer to as pentaquark-charmonium states, in $\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi K^- p$ decays are presented. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3/fb acquired…
The newly confirmed pentaquark state $P_c(4312)$ has been treated as a weakly bound $(\Sigma_c\bar{D})$ state by a well-established chiral constituent quark model and by a dynamical calculation on quark degrees of freedom where the quark…
Recent LHCb experiments have shown us that there are two resonances in the $J/\psi p$ channel in the $\Lambda_b$ decay, whose spin and parity are most probably (3/2$^-$ 5/2$^+$). In this work, we investigate the $I(J^P)=1/2(1/2^-)$,…
Stimulated by the newly observed $\Lambda_b(6146)^0$ and $\Lambda_b(6152)^0$ resonances, we investigate the strong decays of the low-lying singly bottom baryons within the quark pair creation model. Considering their masses and decay modes,…
Very recently, three new structures $\Xi_c(2923)^0$, $\Xi(2938)^0$, and $\Xi(2964)^0$ at the invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda_c^{+}K^{-}$ observed by the LHCb Collaboration triggers a hot discussion about their inner structure. In this…
We investigate the consequences of heavy quark spin symmetry (HQSS) on hidden-charm pentaquark $P_c$ states. As has been proposed before, assuming the $P_c(4440)$ and the $P_c(4457)$ as $S$-wave $\bar{D}^*\Sigma_c$ molecules, seven hadronic…
We study the nature of the recently observed $P_{cs}(4459)$ by the LHCb collaboration by employing three methods based on the elastic effective-range expansion and the resulting size of the effective-range, the saturation of the…
There may exist seven $\bar D^{(*)} \Sigma_c^{(*)}$ hadronic molecular states. We construct their corresponding interpolating currents, and calculate their masses and decay constants using QCD sum rules. Based on these results, we calculate…
We construct the effective potentials of the $P_c$ and $P_{cs}$ states based on the SU(3)$_{\text{f}}$ symmetry and heavy quark symmetry. Then we perform the coupled-channel analysis of the lowest isospin $P_c$ and $P_{cs}$ systems. The…
The decay behavior of an exotic state can be used to probe its internal structure. We note that the hidden-charm pentaquark states, $P_{\psi}^{N}(4312)$, $P_{\psi}^{N}(4440)$, and $P_{\psi}^{N}(4457)$, have only been observed in the $J/\psi…
