We systematically study hidden charm pentaquark states in the constituent quark model with a general Hamiltonian for multiquark systems, considering the coupling between the $\Sigma_c^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$ molecular states and the $q^3c\bar…
A molecular model of the $P_c(4457)$ and $P_c(4440)$ LHCb states is proposed. The model relies on channels coupled by long range pion-exchange dynamics with features that depend crucially on the novel addition of the $\Lambda_c(2595)\bar D$…
A dynamical calculation of the strange hidden charm pentaquark systems $\Lambda_{c\bar{c}}$ is performed in the framework of the quark delocalization color screening model. The effective potentials between two clusters are calculated to…
We use a unitary coupled-channel model to study the $\bar{D} \Lambda_c - \bar{D} \Sigma_c$ interactions. In our calculation, SU(3) flavor symmetry is applied to determine the coupling constants. Several resonant and bound states with…
Based on the hadronic resonance picture, we propose a possible framework to simultaneously describe the resonance parameters of the observed $Z_{cs}$ and $Z_{c}$ states that are close to the thresholds of the $D^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}_s$ and…
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…
The discovery of the $X(3872)$ meant the revival of the heavy meson spectroscopy beyond naive $q\bar q$ structures. Once that the $SU(3)$ scheme, which was very useful in the dawn of the quark models, does not work for these states, one has…
Inspired by the observations of three $P_c$ states, we systematically investigate interactions between an $S$-wave charmed baryon $\mathcal{B}_{c}^{(*)}=\Lambda_c/\Sigma_c/\Sigma_c^{*}$ and an anticharmed meson $\bar T=\bar D_1/\bar D_2^*$…
We develop a model for the production of the Pc states observed at LHCb in Lambdab - Jpsi p K- decays. With fewer parameters than other approaches, we obtain excellent fits to the Jpsi-p invariant mass spectrum, capturing both the prominent…
A coupled-channel approach including the $\Lambda_c\bar{D}^{(*)}$ and $\eta_c p$ channels in addition to the $\Sigma_c^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$ and $J/\psi p$ channels, as required by unitarity and heavy quark spin symmetry (HQSS), is applied to…
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…
Based on a coupled-channel approach, we investigate the structures of four $P_c$ states through compositeness criteria. Toward a more precise description of the states, we have obtained refined fit results of the LHCb data on the $J/\psi p$…
We construct a potential obtained by one-pion exchange for the coupled channel $\Sigma_c^\ast$$\bar{D}$-$\Sigma_c$$\bar{D}^\ast$, and solve the coupled Schr\"{o}dinger equations to determine the binding energy. We find that there exists one…
The $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$, and $P_c(4457)$ observed by the LHCb Collaboration are very likely to be $S$-wave $\Sigma_c\bar{D}^{(*)}$ molecular candidates due to their near-threshold character. In this work, we study the hidden-charm…
We investigate the hidden-charm pentaquarks as superpositions of $\Lambda_c \bar{D}^{(*)}$ and $\Sigma_c^{(*)} \bar{D}^{(*)}$ (isospin $I = 1/2$) meson-baryon channels coupled to a $uudc\bar{c}$ compact core by employing an interaction…
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}^*…
It is demonstrated that the candidate tetraquark states $Z_b(10610)$, $Z_b(10650)$, $Z_c(3900)$, and $Z_c(4025)$ are coupled channel cusp effects. The model explains in a natural way the masses and quantum numbers of the putative states and…
Recently, the LHCb Collaboration reported on the evidence for a hidden charm pentaquark state with strangeness, i.e., $P_{cs}(4459)$, in the $J/\psi\Lambda$ invariant mass distribution of the $\Xi_b^-\to J/\psi \Lambda K^-$ decay. In this…
The recent LHCb data on $B_s^0\to J/\psi p\bar{p}$ revealed a new pentaquark-like $P_c(4337)^+$ structure, while finding no evidence for $P_c(4312)^+$ discovered earlier in $\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi p K^-$. Though puzzling, the data actually…
We construct a dynamical coupled-channel approach to photon-induced $J/\psi$ production to search for the trace of the pentaquarks $P_c$. In this approach, the considered open-charm intermediate states are $\Lambda_c \bar{D}^{(*)}$ and…
