Abstract

In this work, we construct the color type local five-quark currents with the light quarks in the flavor octet, and study the pentaquark states via the QCD sum rules in a comprehensive way, and we emphasize that we achieve two light-flavor octets. We obtain the mass spectrum of the hidden-charm-doubly-strange pentaquark states with the isospin-spin-parity , and , which can be confronted to the experimental data in the future, especially in the process . As a byproduct, we observe that the lowest hidden-charm pentaquark states are not of the scalar-diquark-scalar-diquark-antiquark type, it is not suitable to refer to the scalar and axialvector diquarks as the "good" and "bad" diquarks, respectively.
