Study of Fully heavy Pentaquarks using extended Gursey-Radicati formalism (2504.04546v1)

Abstract: The study of exotic multi-quark states has garnered significant attention recently, particularly in heavy-quark dynamics within quantum chromodynamics (QCD). We perform a comprehensive spectroscopic analysis of fully heavy pentaquark states with quark configurations $cccc\bar{c}$ and $bbbb\bar{b}$, considering spin-parity quantum numbers $J^P = 1/2^-$, $3/2^-$, and $5/2^-$. We construct the color-spin wavefunctions to explore the internal structure and mixing effects in these exotic states. Using an extended form of the Gursey-Radicati mass formula by incorporating spin-dependent interactions, we calculated their mass spectra. The modification incorporates effective mass contributions and hyperfine interactions to improve the predictive power for these hadronic states. We systematically analyze their quantum numbers, including spin parity, isospin, and the eigenvalues of the quadratic Casimir operator, which characterize their symmetry properties. The calculated mass spectra are compared with existing theoretical predictions to assess the stability and possible decay channels of these states. The calculated mass spectra exhibit a strong dependence on the interplay between spin interactions and color configurations, shedding light on the binding mechanism within these fully heavy multiquark systems. To gain further insights into their stability and decay properties, we investigated their potential production modes from $b$-hadron decays. Our analysis identifies dominant strong decay channels, providing critical theoretical benchmarks for distinguishing these states in future LHCb or EIC experiments. This study offers new insights into the role of heavy-quark dynamics in exotic hadron spectroscopy, serving as a stringent test for effective QCD-based models and lattice QCD predictions.
