Surveying the mass spectra and the electromagnetic properties of the Ξc(′,*)D(*)<

Abstract

Motivated by the observed PψsΛ(4459)/PψsΛ(4338) and Tcc(3875)+ states as the ΞcD¯*/ΞcD¯ and DD* molecular candidates, respectively, in this work we investigate the Ξc(′,*)D(*) molecular systems. We obtain the mass spectra and the corresponding spatial wave functions of the Ξc(′,*)D(*)-type double-charm molecular pentaquark candidates with single strangeness, where we utilize the one-boson-exchange model and take into account both the S−D wave-mixing effect and the coupled-channel effect. Our results show that the most promising candidates of the double-charm molecular pentaquarks with single strangeness include the ΞcD state with I(JP)=0(1/2−), the Ξc′D state with I(JP)=0(1/2−), the ΞcD* states with I(JP)=0(1/2−,3/2−), the Ξc*D state with I(JP)=0(3/2−), the Ξc′D* states with I(JP)=0(1/2−,3/2−), and the Ξc*D* states with I(JP)=0(1/2−,3/2−,5/2−). To gain further insight into the inner structures and the properties of the isoscalar Ξc(′,*)D(*) molecular candidates, we utilize the constituent quark model to analyze their M1 radiative decay behaviors and magnetic moments based on the obtained mass spectra and spatial wave functions, which can offer significant information to determine their spin-parity quantum numbers and configurations in the forthcoming experiments. We suggest that our experimental colleagues search for the predicted Ξc(′,*)D(*) molecular states. Published by the American Physical Society 2024
