Dynamically-generated baryon resonances with heavy flavor

We study baryon resonances with heavy flavor in a molecular approach, thus as dynamically generated by meson-baryon scattering. This is accomplished by using a unitary coupled-channel model taking, as bare interaction, the extension to four flavors and spin symmetry of the Weinberg-Tomozawa interaction potential. A special attention is paid to the inclusion of heavy-quark spin symmetry and to the studies of the generated baryon resonances which complete the heavy-quark spin multiplets. We reproduce few charmed and strange baryon resonances found experimentally, that is, Λ_c(2595), Λ_c(2625), Ξ_c(2790), Ξ_c(2815), and make predictions for more states. The bottom-flavored Λ_b(5912) and Λ_b(5920) states, found by the LHCb collaboration, are also obtained by our model, thus these resonances can be interpreted as molecular states. We also study Ξ_b resonances, which belong to the same SU(3) x HQSS multiplets as the observed Λ_b particles. Finally we analyze hidden-charm baryon resonances. In this sector, we predict seven N-like and five Δ-like states with masses around 4 GeV, most of them as bound states, and compare them with predictions from other models. The predicted states can be searched for in future experiments that involve studies of heavy-flavor physics, e.g. PANDA/FAIR, where charm physics will be analyzed.
