Molecular charmed baryons and pentaquarks from light-meson exchange saturation

The spectrum of the cqq baryons contains a few states whose nature is not clearly a three-quark composite and which might have a sizable baryon-meson component. Examples include the Σc(2800) or the Λc(2940). Here we explore the spectrum of two-body systems composed of a light, octet baryon and a charmed meson (or antimeson) within a simple contact-range theory in which the couplings are saturated by light-meson exchanges. This results in the prediction of a series of composite anticharmed pentaquarks (c¯qqqq) and singly charmed baryons (cq¯qqq). Among the latter we find J=12 ΞD and J=32 ΞD* bound states with masses matching those of the recently observed Ωc(3185) and Ωc(3327) baryons.
