The structure of pentaquarks $\Omega_c^0$ in the chiral quark model

Understand

Recently, the experimental results of LHCb Collaboration suggested the existence of five new excited states of $\Omega_c^0$, $\Omega_c(3000)^0$, $\Omega_c(3050)^0$, $\Omega_c(3066)^0$, $\Omega_c(3090)^0$ and $\Omega_c(3119)^0$, the quantum numbers of these new particles are not determined now.

• To understand the nature of the states, a dynamical calculation of 5-quark systems with quantum numbers $IJ^P=0(\frac{1}{2})^-$, $0(\frac{3}{2})^-$ and $0(\frac{5}{2})^-$ is performed in the framework of chiral quark model with the help of gaussian expansion method.
• The results show the $\Xi-\bar{D}$, $\Xi_c\bar{K}$ and $\Xi_c^*\bar{K}$ are possible the candidates of these new particles.
• The distances between quark pairs suggest that the nature of pentaquark states.
