Molecular components in $\mathbf{D_{s0}^{\ast}(2317)}$ and $\mathbf{D_{s1}(2460)}$ mesons

Abstract: Different experiments have confirmed that the $D_{s0}{\ast}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ mesons are very narrow states located, respectively, below the $DK$ and $D{\ast}K$ thresholds. This is markedly in contrast with the expectations of naive quark models and heavy quark symmetry. We address the mass shifts of the $c\bar{s}$ ground states with quantum numbers $J{P}=0{+}$ ($D_{s0}{\ast}(2317)$) and $J{P}=1{+}$ ($D_{s1}(2460)$) using a nonrelativistic constituent quark model in which quark-antiquark and meson-meson degrees of freedom are incorporated. The quark model has been applied to a wide range of hadronic observables and thus the model parameters are completely constrained. We observe that the coupling of the $0{+}$ $(1{+})$ meson sector to the $DK$ $(D{\ast}K)$ threshold is a key feature in lowering the masses of the corresponding $D_{s0}{\ast}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ states predicted by the naive quark model, but also in describing the $D_{s1}(2536)$ meson as the $1{+}$ state of the $j_{q}{P}=3/2{+}$ doublet predicted by heavy quark symmetry and thus reproducing its strong decay properties. Two features of our formalism cannot be address nowadays by other approaches: the coupling of the $D$-wave $D{\ast}K$ threshold in the $J{P}=1{+}$ $c\bar{s}$ channel and the computation of the probabilities associated with different Fock components in the physical state.
