    In this paper we examine the interaction of \bar B N, \bar B \Delta, \bar B^* N and \bar B^* \Delta states, together with their coupled channels, using a mapping from the light meson sector. The assumption that the heavy quarks act as spectators at the quark level automatically leads us to the results of the heavy quark spin symmetry for pion exchange and reproduces the results of the Weinberg Tomozawa term, coming from light vector exchanges in the extended local hidden gauge approach. With this dynamics we look for states dynamically generated from the interaction and find two states with nearly zero width, which we associate to the \Lambda_b(5912) and \Lambda_b(5920) states. The states couple mostly to \bar B^* N, which are degenerate with the Weinberg Tomozawa interaction. The difference of masses between these two states, with J=1/2, 3/2 respectively, is due to pion exchange connecting these states to intermediate \bar B N states. In addition to these two \Lambda_b states, we find three more states with I=0, one of them nearly degenerate in two states of J=1/2,3/2. Furthermore we also find eight more states in I=1I=1, two of them degenerate in J=1/2, 3/2, and other two degenerate in J=1/2, 3/2, 5/2.Comment: 26 pages, 9 figures, 24 table

    J/ψ(ηc)NJ/\psi (\eta_c) N and Υ(ηb)N\Upsilon (\eta_b) N cross sections

    Inspired by the recent findings of the two Pc+P_c^+ states in the J/ψpJ/\psi p mass spectrum at LHCb, we investigate the elastic and inelastic cross sections of the J/ψNJ/\psi N, ηcN\eta_c N, ΥN\Upsilon N and ηbN\eta_b N channels within the constraints from heavy quark spin and flavour symmetry. The Dˉ(∗)Σc(∗)\bar{D}^{(*)} \Sigma_c^{(*)} (B(∗)Σb(∗)B^{(*)} \Sigma_b^{(*)}) bound states predicted in earlier works should be accessible in elastic and/or inelastic processes of the J/ψNJ/\psi N and/or ηcN\eta_c N (ΥN\Upsilon N and/or ηbN\eta_b N) interactions.Comment: Minor correction

    Baryon states with open charm in the extended local hidden gauge approach

    In this paper we examine the interaction of DND N and D∗ND^* N states, together with their coupled channels, by using an extension of the local hidden gauge formalism from the light meson sector, which is based on heavy quark spin symmetry. The scheme is based on the use of the impulse approximation at the quark level, with the heavy quarks acting as spectators, which occurs for the dominant terms where there is the exchange of a light meson. The pion exchange and the Weinberg-Tomozawa interactions are generalized and with this dynamics we look for states generated from the interaction, with a unitary coupled channels approach that mixes the pseudoscalar-baryon and vector-baryon states. We find two states with nearly zero width which are associated to the Λc(2595)\Lambda_c(2595) and Λc(2625)\Lambda_c(2625). The lower state, with JP=1/2−J^P = 1/2^-, couples to DND N and D∗ND^* N, and the second one, with JP=3/2−J^P = 3/2^-, to D∗ND^* N. In addition to these two Λc\Lambda_c states, we find four more states with I=0I=0, one of them nearly degenerate in two states of J=1/2, 3/2J=1/2,\ 3/2. Furthermore we find three states in I=1I=1, two of them degenerate in J=1/2,3/2J=1/2, 3/2.Comment: v3: version to appear in Eur.Phys.J.
