Here we investigate the decay patterns of the low-lying hidden strangeness nucleon resonances ($\equiv N_{s\bar{s}}$) to the strangeness channels by employing the chiral Lagrangian approach, where the $N_{s\bar{s}}$ states are treated as…

In 2019, two new structures $\Lambda_b(6146)$ and $\Lambda_b(6152)$ were observed by the LHCb Collaboration at the invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda_b^0\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$, which aroused a hot discussion about their inner structures. The…

In the framework of one-pion-exchange (OPE) model, we study the hidden-charm and charm-strange molecular pentaquark systems composed of a heavy baryon $(\Sigma_c, \Sigma_c^*)$ and a vector meson $(\bar{K}^*, \bar{D}^*)$, where the S-D…

The BESIII collaboration has discovered a new state with hidden charm-strange. Its mass is intriguingly close to the $ D_s\bar{D}_{s1} $ threshold and does not have the properties of the charmonium states. Working with the QCD sum rules…

We relate the interactions of the $\bar{D}^{(\ast)} K^\ast$ and $D^{(\ast)} K^\ast$ systems to those of $D^{(\ast)}D^{(\ast)}$ and $D^{(\ast)}\bar{D}^{(\ast)}$ respectively, considering the residual strong interactions at the near-threshold…

In the framework of the dispersion relation technique the relativistic six-quark equations for the molecule $\Sigma_b \Sigma_b^*$ are found. The relativistic six-quark amplitudes of the hexaquark including the quarks of three flavors ($u$,…

Recently, the LHCb Collaboration reported a new structure $P_{cs}(4459)$ with a mass of 19 MeV below the $\Xi_c \bar{D}^{*} $ threshold. It may be a candidate of molecular state from the $\Xi_c \bar{D}^{*} $ interaction. In the current…

Inspired by the observation of hidden-charm pentaquark $P_c$ and $P_{cs}$ states by the LHCb Collaboration, we explore the $qqc\bar{c}c$ ($q~=~u$ or $d$) pentaquark systems in the quark delocalization color screening model. The interaction…

In this study, we explore the interactions between mesons and baryons in the open heavy sectors to identify potential triple-heavy molecular pentaquarks. We derive the meson-baryon interaction potentials using the vector meson exchange…

The properties of the $B_c$-meson family ($c\bar b$) are still not well determined experimentally because the specific mechanisms of formation and decay remain poorly understood. Unlike heavy quarkonia, i.e. the hidden heavy quark-antiquark…
