$J/ψΛ$ femtoscopy and the nature of $P_{ψs}^Λ(4338)$

Over the past two decades, numerous exotic hadron states have been discovered, yet their underlying nature remains unclear. It is widely acknowledged that understanding hadron-hadron interactions is essential to unraveling their properties. Hadron spectroscopy is a powerful tool for this endeavor, providing rich experimental data that can shed light on exotic systems. Recently, the LHCb experiment analyzed the process $B^{-} \rightarrow J/ψΛ\bar{p}$ and observed a narrow peak in the $J/ψΛ$ invariant mass spectrum, regarding it as a candidate for a pentaquark. In this work, we extract the coupled-channel $J / ψΛ-\bar{D} Ξ_c-\bar{D}_s Λ_c$ potential based on the $J/ψΛ$ invariant mass spectrum. Our results indicate the existence of a bound state below the $\bar{D} Ξ_c$ mass threshold, corresponding to the experimentally measured state $P_{cs}(4338)$. Furthermore, we predict the scattering lengths and momentum correlation functions for the $J/ψΛ$ and $\bar{D}Ξ_c$ channels, which serve as theoretical references for future femtoscopy experiments.
