Fully-charm and -bottom pentaquarks in a Lattice-QCD inspired quark model

Abstract

The fully-charm and -bottom pentaquarks, \emph{i.e.} $cccc\bar{c}$ and $bbbb\bar{b}$, with spin-parity quantum numbers $J^P={\frac{1}{2}}^{-}$, ${\frac{3}{2}}^{-}$ and ${\frac{5}{2}}^{-}$, are investigated within a Lattice-QCD inspired quark model, which has already successfully described the recently announced fully-charm tetraquark candidate $X(6900)$, and has also predicted several other fully-heavy tetraquarks. A powerful computational technique, based on the Gaussian expansion method combined with a complex-scaling range approach, is employed to predict, and distinguish, bound, resonance and scattering states of the mentioned five-body system. Both baryon-meson and diquark-diquark-antiquark configurations, along with all of their possible color channels are comprehensively considered. Narrow resonances are obtained in each spin-parity channel for the fully-charm and -bottom systems. Moreover, most of them seems to be compact multiquarks whose wave-functions are dominated by either hidden-color baryon-meson or diquark-diquark-antiquark structure, or by the coupling between them.
