Analysis of $P_c^+(4380)$ and $P_c^+(4450)$ as pentaquark states in the molecular picture with QCD sum rules

Understand

To better understand the nature and internal structure of the exotic states discovered by many collaborations, more information on their electromagnetic properties and their strong and weak interactions with other hadrons is needed.

• The residue or current coupling constant of these states together with their mass are the main inputs in determinations of such properties.
• We perform QCD sum rules analyses on the hidden-charm pentaquark states with spin-parities $ J^{P}= \frac{3}{2}^{\pm}$ and $ J^{P}= \frac{5}{2}^{\pm}$ to calculate their residue and mass.
• In the calculations, we adopt a molecular picture for $ J^{P}= \frac{3}{2}^{\pm}$ states and a mixed current in a molecular form for $ J^{P}= \frac{5}{2}^{\pm}$.
