Abstract
- We have a look at the $P_{cs}$ states generated from the interaction of $\bar D^{(*)} \Xi^{(\prime*)}_c$ coupled channels. We consider the blocks of pseudoscalar-baryon $({\frac12}^+, {\frac32}^+)$ and vector-baryon $({\frac12}^+, {\frac32}^+)$, and find $10$ resonant states coupling mostly to $\bar D \Xi_c, \bar D^* \Xi_c,\bar D \Xi'_c, \bar D^* \Xi'_c,\bar D \Xi^*_c$ and $\bar D^* \Xi^*_c$. A novel aspect of the work is the realization that the $\bar D \Xi_c,\bar D_s\Lambda_c$ or $\bar D^* \Xi_c,\bar D^*_s\Lambda_c$ channels, with a strong transition potential, collaborate to produce a larger attraction than the corresponding states $\bar D \Sigma_c,\bar D\Lambda_c$ or $\bar D^* \Sigma_c,\bar D^*\Lambda_c$ appearing in the generation of the strangenessless $P_{c}$ states, since in the latter case the transition potential between those channels is zero. The extra attraction obtained in the $\bar D \Xi_c,\bar D^* \Xi_c$ pairs preclude the association of these channels to the $P_{cs}(4338)$ and $P_{cs}(4459)$ states respectively. Then we find a natural association of the $P_{cs}(4338)$ state coupling mostly to $\bar D^* \Xi_c$ while the $P_{cs}(4459)$ is associated to the state found that couples mostly to $\bar D \Xi'_c$. Four more states appear, like in other molecular pictures, and some of the states are degenerate in spin. Counting different spin states we find $10$ states, which we hope can be observed in the near future.<br />Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, accepted for publication in Physics Letters B
