Holographic charm and bottom pentaquarks II: Open and hidden decay widths

Abstract

We analyze the decay modes of the three $[\frac{1}{2}{\frac{1}{2}}^{-}{]}_{S=0,1}$ and $[\frac{1}{2}{\frac{3}{2}}^{-}{]}_{S=1}$ non-strange pentaquarks with hidden charm and bottom, predicted by holographic QCD in the heavy quark limit. In leading order, the pentaquarks %are composed of heavy-light mesons in bulk bound to an instanton core. They are degenerate and stable by heavy quark symmetry. At next to leading order, the spin interactions lift the degeneracy and cause the pentaquarks to decay. We show that the open charm (bottom) decay modes dwarf the hidden charm (bottom) ones, with total widths that are consistent with those recently reported by LHCb for charm pentaquarks. Predictions for bottom pentaquarks are given.
