QCD Sum Rule Study for a Possible Charmed Pentaquark Θc(3250)

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We use QCD sum rules to study the possible existence of a Θc(3250) charmed pentaquark. We consider the contributions of condensates up to dimension-10 and work at leading order in α_s. We obtain m(Θc) = (3.21 +/- 0.13) GeV, compatible with the mass of the structure seen by BaBar Collaboration in the decay channel B- -> p- Σc++ pi- pi-. The proposed state is compatible with a previous proposed pentaquark state in the anti-charmed sector.
