Strange hidden-charm $P_{ψs}^Λ(4459)$ and $P_{ψ s}^Λ(4338)$ pentaquarks and additional $P_{ψs}^Λ$, $P_{ψ s}^Σ$ and $P_{ψss}^N$ candidates in a quark model approach
Abstract: Hidden-charm pentaquark-like $P_{\psi s}\Lambda(4459)0$ and $P_{\psi s}\Lambda(4338)$ resonances are studied in a constituent quark model as molecular meson-baryon structures. Such states are found in the $JP(I)=\frac{1}{2}-(0)$ channel with masses and widths compatible with the experimental measurements in a coupled-channels calculation with all the parameters constrained from previous studies. Other candidates are explored in the $JP=\frac{1}{2}-$, $\frac{3}{2}-$ and $\frac{5}{2}-$ channels in the charm and bottom sectors, with isospins $0$ ($P_{\psi s}\Lambda$ and $P_{\Upsilon s}\Lambda$) and $1$ ($P_{\psi s}\Sigma$ and $P_{\Upsilon s}\Sigma$). Additionally, the formalism is extended to study the $P_{\psi ss}N$ ($P_{\Upsilon ss}N$) pentaquarks, where eight candidates are predicted as $\bar D_s \Xi_c$ molecules in $I=\frac{1}{2}$, with $JP=\frac{1}{2}-$, $\frac{3}{2}-$ and $\frac{5}{2}-$ for the charm sector and nine candidates as $B_s \Xi_b$ for the bottom one.
