Motivated by the very recent observations of hidden charm pentaquarks $P_c(4312)^+$, $P_c(4440)^+$ and $P_c(4457)^+$ of the LHCb Collaboration, we systematically study the spectra of the doubly-heavy (with or without charm/bottom numbers)…
The mass spectrum of hidden charm pentaquark states composed of two diquarks and an antiquark are calculated by use of an effective Hamiltonian which includes explicitly the spin, color, and flavor dependent interactions. The results show…
We provide a simple explanation for the observed hidden-charm pentaquarks as bound states in Born-Oppenheimer potentials. We identify $P_{c\bar{c}}(4312)^+$, $P_{c\bar{c}}(4440)^+$, and $P_{c\bar{c}}(4457)^+$ as heavy-quark spin states in a…
A recent analysis by the LHCb collaboration suggests the existence of three narrow pentaquark-like states --- the $P_c(4312)$,$P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ --- instead of just one in the previous analysis (the $P_c(4450)$). The closeness of…
We investigate hidden-charm exotic mesons based on a coupled-channel framework, where the physical states are described as superpositions of a compact $c\bar c$ core (identified with the $\chi_{cJ}(2P)$ states) and hadronic components such…
In the framework of the coupled channel model the mass shifts of the $P$--wave excitations of $D_s$ and $B_s$ mesons have been calculated. The corresponding coupling to $DK$ and $BK$ channels is provided by the effective chiral Lagrangian…
We present an extension of the pair coupled cluster doubles (p-CCD) method to quasiparticles and apply it to the attractive pairing Hamiltonian. Near the transition point where number symmetry gets spontaneously broken, the proposed…
The recently discovered $P_c(4380)^+$ and $P_c(4450)^+$ states at LHCb have masses close to the $\bar D\Sigma_c^*$ and $\bar D^*\Sigma_c$ thresholds, respectively, which suggest that they may have significant meson-baryon molecular…
Strange hidden-charm pentaquark states have been systematically investigated within a diquark-triquark model. Through a Gaussian expansion method, masses of some diquarks, triquarks and strange hidden-charmed pentaquark states from S-wave…
We revisit the hidden-charm pentaquark states $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4450)$ using the method of QCD sum rules by requiring the pole contribution to be larger than or around 30\% to better insure the one-pole parametrization to be valid. We…
The LHCb Collaboration has recently reported strong evidences of the existence of pentaquark states in the hidden-charm baryon sector, the so-called $P_c(4380)^+$ and $P_c(4450)^+$ signals. Five-quark bound states in the hidden-charm sector…
$P_c(4312)$ observed by the LHCb collaboration is confirmed as a pentaquark and its structure, production, and decay behaviors attract great attention from theorists and experimentalists. Since its mass is very close to sum of $\Sigma_c$…
In a previous work we have studied the isospin 1/2 lowest positive and negative parity states of the pentaquark $uudc\overline{c}$, in a constituent quark model with a linear confinement and an SU(4) flavor-spin hyperfine interaction and we…
We adopt the chiral perturbation theory to calculate the $\Sigma_{c}^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$ interaction to the next-to-leading order (NLO) and include the couple-channel effect in the loop diagrams. We reproduce the three $P_c$ states in the…
The LHCb collaboration has detected a new hidden-charm pentaquark with the quantum numbers of a $\Lambda$ baryon: the $P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda}(4338)$. This pentaquark will be interpreted as a $\bar{D}_s \Lambda_c$-$\bar{D} \Xi_c$ resonance…
The $Z_{c}(3900)^\pm/Z_c(3885)^\pm$ and $Z_{c}(4020)^\pm$ are two charmonium-like structures discovered in the $\pi J/\psi$ and $D^\ast\bar D^{(\ast)}+h.c.$ invariant mass spectra. Their nature is puzzling due to their charge, which forces…
Inspired by the discovery of two pentaquarks $P_{c}(4380)$ and $P_{c}(4450)$ at the LHCb detector, we study possible hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks in the framework of quark delocalization color screening model. Our results suggest that…
The LHCb collaboration has recently discovered three pentaquark-like states --- the $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ --- close to the $\bar{D} \Sigma_c$ and the $\bar{D}^* \Sigma_c$ meson-baryon thresholds. The standard…
We systematically study hidden-charm pentaquark currents with the quark configurations $[\bar c u][u d c]$, $[\bar c d][u u c]$, and $[\bar c c][u u d]$. Some of their relations are derived using the Fierz rearrangement of the Dirac and…
We study the strong decay channels $P_c^+(4380) \to J/\psi p$ and $P_c^+(4450) \to J/\psi p$ under $\Sigma_c \bar{D}^*$ molecular state ansatz. With various spin-parity assignments, the partial decay widths of $J/\psi p$ final state are…
