$P_{c}$-like pentaquarks in hidden strange sector

arXiv:1803.05267 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.97.094019

Abstract

Analogous to the work of hidden charm molecular pentaquarks, we study possible hidden strange molecular pentaquarks composed of $Σ$ (or $Σ^{*}$) and $K$ (or $K^{*}$) in the framework of quark delocalization color screening model. Our results suggest that the $ΣK$, $ΣK^{*}$ and $Σ^{*} K^{*}$ with $IJ^{P}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{1}{2}^{-}$ and $ΣK^{*}$, $Σ^{*} K$ and $Σ^{*} K^{*}$ with $IJ^{P}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{3}{2}^{-}$ are all resonance states by coupling the open channels. The molecular pentaquark $Σ^{*} K$ with quantum numbers $IJ^{P}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{3}{2}^{-}$ can be seen as a strange partner of the LHCb $P_{c}(4380)$ state, and it can be identified as the nucleon resonance $N^{*}(1875)$ listed in PDG. The $ΣK^{*}$ with quantum numbers $IJ^{P}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{3}{2}^{-}$ can be identified as the $N^{*}(2100)$, which was experimentally observed in the $ϕ$ photo-production.
