Fine Structure of Pentaquark Multiplets in the Dynamical Diquark Model

Abstract

We apply the dynamical diquark model to predict the spectrum of hidden-charm pentaquark states in both unflavored and open-strange sectors. Using only Hamiltonian parameters introduced in the tetraquark $S$- and $P$-wave multiplets, the model naturally produces the level spacing supported by the most recent LHCb results for $P_c$ structures. Furthermore, using model inputs obtained from data of hidden-charm, open-strange tetraquarks ($Z_{cs}$), we predict the spectrum of $P_{cs}$ states, including the recently observed $P_{cs}(4459)$. We find all pentaquark candidates observed to date to belong to the $1P$ multiplet and hence have positive parity.
