Description

We discuss the possible existence of exotic dibaryons with a heavy antiquark, being realized as three-body systems, D¯(⁎)NN and B(⁎)NN. These are genuinely exotic states with no quark–antiquark annihilation. We consider the heavy quark spin and chiral symmetries, and introduce the one pion exchange potential between a D¯(⁎) (B(⁎)) meson and a nucleon N. As for the NN interaction, we employ the Argonne v8 potential. By solving the coupled-channel equations for PNN and PNN (P(⁎)=D¯(⁎) and B(⁎)), we find bound states for (I,JP)=(1/2,0) as well as resonant states for (I,JP)=(1/2,1) both in D¯(⁎)NN and B(⁎)NN systems. We also discuss the heavy quark limit, and find that the spin degeneracy is realized in the bound states with (I,JP)=(1/2,0) and (1/2,1)
