A narrow resonance in the J/psi Lambda system, consistent with a pentaquark candidate with strangeness, is observed with high significance. The mass and the width of this new state are measured to be 4338.2 +/- 0.7 +/- 0.4 MeV and 7.0 +/- 1.2 +/- 1.3 MeV, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The spin is determined to be 1/2 and negative parity is preferred. Because of the small Q-value of the reaction, the most precise single measurement of the B- mass to date, 5279.44 +/- 0.05 +/- 0.07 MeV, is obtained.", optnote="WOS:001138758100002", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5941), last updated on Wed, 10 Apr 2024 12:45:08 +0000", issn="0031-9007", doi="10.1103/PhysRevLett.131.031901", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.10346", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.131.031901", language="English" }
