Abstract

In this work, we systemically investigate the molecular states from the Σc(∗)Dˉ(∗)−ΛcDˉ(∗)Σ^{(*)}_c\bar{D}^{(*)}-Λ_c\bar{D}^{(*)} interaction with the help of the Lagrangians with heavy quark and chiral symmetries in a quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation (qBSE) approach. The molecular states are produced from isodoublet (I=1/2) ΣcDˉΣ_c\bar{D} interaction with spin parity JP=1/2−J^P=1/2^- and ΣcDˉ∗Σ_c\bar{D}^* interaction with 1/2−1/2^- and 3/2− 3/2^-. Their masses and widths are consistent with the Pc(4312)P_c(4312), Pc(4440)P_c(4440) and Pc(4457)P_c(4457) observed at LHCb. The states, Σc∗Dˉ∗(1/2−)Σ_c^*\bar{D}^*(1/2^-), Σc∗Dˉ∗(3/2−)Σ_c^*\bar{D}^*(3/2^-) and Σc∗Dˉ(3/2−)Σ^*_c\bar{D}(3/2^-), are also produced with the same parameters. The isodoublet Σc∗Dˉ∗Σ_c^*\bar{D}^* interaction with 5/2−5/2^-, as well as the isoquartet (I=3/2) ΣcDˉ∗Σ_c\bar{D}^* interactions with 1/2−1/2^- and 3/2−3/2^-, Σc∗Dˉ∗Σ_c^*\bar{D}^* interaction with 3/2−3/2^- and 5/2−5/2^-, are also attractive while very large cutoff is required to produce a molecular state. We also investigate the origin of the widths of these molecular states in the same qBSE frame. The ΛDˉ∗Λ\bar{D}^* channel is dominant in the decays of the states, ΣcDˉ∗(1/2−)Σ_c\bar{D}^*(1/2^-), ΣcDˉ∗(3/2−)Σ_c\bar{D}^*(3/2^-), Σc∗Dˉ(3/2−)Σ_c^*\bar{D}(3/2^-), and ΣcDˉ(1/2−)Σ_c\bar{D}(1/2^-). The Σc∗Dˉ∗(1/2−)Σ^*_c\bar{D}^*(1/2^-) state has large coupling to ΣcDˉΣ_c\bar{D} channel while the ΣcDˉ∗Σ_c\bar{D}^*, Σc∗DˉΣ^*_c\bar{D} and ΛcDˉ∗Λ_c\bar{D}^* channels provide similar contributions to the width of the Σc∗Dˉ∗(3/2−)Σ^*_c\bar{D}^*(3/2^-) state. These results will be helpful to understand the current LHCb experimental results, and the three predicted states and the decay pattern of these hidden-charmed molecular pentaquarks can be checked in future experiments.
