abstract

On March 26th, 2019, at the Rencontres de Moriond QCD conference, the LHCb Collaboration reported the observation of three new pentaquarks, namely $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$, which are consistent with the loosely bound molecular hidden-charm pentaquark states composed of an S-wave charmed baryon $\Sigma_c$ and an S-wave anti-charmed meson ($\bar{D}, \bar{D}^*$). In this work, we present a direct calculation by the one-boson-exchange (OBE) model and demonstrate explicitly that the $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ do correspond to the loosely bound $\Sigma_c\bar{D}$ with $(I=1/2,J^P=1/2^-)$, $\Sigma_c\bar{D}^*$ with $(I=1/2,J^P=1/2^-)$ and $\Sigma_c\bar{D}^*$ with $(I=1/2,J^P=3/2^-)$, respectively.
