abstract

The \Lambda_c(2940)^+ baryon is studied in a constituent quark model as a molecular state composed by nucleons and D^* mesons. A bound state with the right binding energy is found for the J^\pi=3/2^- channel. The partial widths \Lambda_c(2940)^+\to ND and \Lambda_c(2940)^+\to \Sigma_c \pi are calculated and the results are consistent with the experimental data. Additionally a bottom partner \bar B^*N is predicted with a mass of 6248 MeV/c^2.

Hadronic molecules serve as a framework for certain exotic heavy-quark states where nonrelativistic effective field theories enable predictions with controlled uncertainty.

    The DNN system forms a robust compact bound state in the I=1/2 (1^-) channel across cutoffs, while D*NN exhibits spin-dependent bound states in 0^-, 1^-, and 2^- channels with no resonances found.
