Pentaquarks with the $qqs\bar{Q}Q$ configuration in the Chiral Quark Model

Abstract

We study the five-quark system composed of $qqs\bar{Q}Q$ configuration ($q=u$ or $d$, $Q=b$ or $c$), in the framework of the chiral quark model. In consequence, a series of bound states with heavy flavors are predicted by precise five-body dynamical calculations. We found that taking color-octet structure into consideration always provides more bounding energy than color-singlet structure, and the more heavier quark prevents, the easier to form the bound states. We suggest $qqs\bar{b}b$ configuration is a compact $\bar{b}b$-pair surrounded by three other quarks, while $qqs\bar{b}c$, $qqs\bar{c}b$ and $qqs\bar{c}c$ configurations are molecular states.
