Are $N\barΩ$ bound states?

Inspired by the progress of the experimental search of the $NΩ$ dibaryon by the STAR collaboration, we study $N\barΩ$ systems in the framework of quark delocalization color screening model. Our results show that the attraction between $N$ and $\barΩ$ is a little bit larger than that between $N$ and $Ω$, which indicates that it is more possible for the $N\barΩ$ than the $NΩ$ system to form bound states. The dynamic calculations state that both the $J^{P}=1^{+}$ and $2^{+}$ $N\barΩ$ systems are bound states. The binding energy of these two states are deeper than that of $NΩ$ systems with $J^{P}=2^{+}$, and the $NΩ$ system with $J^{P}=1^{+}$ is unbound. The calculation of the low-energy scattering phase shifts, scattering length and the effective range also supports the existence of the $N\barΩ$ bound states with $J^{P}=1^{+}$ and $2^{+}$. So the $N\barΩ$ states are better hexaquark states and stronger signals are expected in experiments.
