Higher molecular $P_{ψs}^{Λ/Σ}$ pentaquarks arising from the $Ξ_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_1/Ξ_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_2^*$ interactions

Abstract: The discoveries of the $P_{\psi s}^\Lambda(4459)$ and $P_{\psi s}^\Lambda(4338)$ as the potential $\Xi_c\bar D^{(*)}$ molecules have sparked our curiosity in exploring a novel class of molecular $P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda/\Sigma}$ pentaquarks. In this study, we carry out an investigation into the higher molecular pentaquarks, specifically focusing on the $P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda/\Sigma}$ states arising from the $\Xi_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_1/\Xi_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_2^*$ interactions. Our approach employs the one-boson-exchange model, incorporating both the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect and the coupled channel effect. Our numerical results suggest that the $\Xi_c\bar D_1$ states with $I(J^P)=0({1}/{2}^+,\,{3}/{2}^+)$, the $\Xi_c\bar D_2^*$ states with $I(J^P)=0({3}/{2}^+,\,{5}/{2}^+)$, the $\Xi_c^{\prime}\bar D_1$ states with $I(J^P)=0({1}/{2}^+,\,{3}/{2}^+)$, the $\Xi_c^{\prime}\bar D_2^*$ states with $I(J^P)=0({3}/{2}^+,\,{5}/{2}^+)$, the $\Xi_c^{*}\bar D_1$ states with $I(J^P)=0({1}/{2}^+,\,{3}/{2}^+,\,{5}/{2}^+)$, and the $\Xi_c^{*}\bar D_2^*$ states with $I(J^P)=0({1}/{2}^+,\,{3}/{2}^+,\,{5}/{2}^+,\,{7}/{2}^+)$ can be recommended as the most promising molecular $P_{\psi s}^\Lambda$ pentaquark candidates, and there may exist the potential molecular $P_{\psi s}^\Sigma$ pentaquark candidates for several isovector $\Xi_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_1/\Xi_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar D_2^*$ states. With the higher statistical data accumulation at the LHCb's Run II and Run III status, there is the possibility that our predicted $P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda/\Sigma}$ states can be detected through the weak decay of the $\Xi_b$ baryon, especially in hunting for the predicted $P_{\psi s}^\Lambda$ states.
