In this work, we adopt the one-boson-exchange model to study the $Y_cK^{(*)} (Y_c=\Lambda_c, \Sigma_c)$ interactions. After considering both of the $S-D$ wave mixing effects and the coupled channel effects, we can predict several possible…
The discovery of three pentaquark peaks -- the $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ -- by the LHCb collaboration has a series of interesting consequences for hadron spectroscopy. If these hidden-charm objects are indeed hadronic…
