Abstract: We present predictions for scattering observables and femtoscopic correlation functions (CFs) of the I=2 Sigma(++)(c)(pi+) , Sigma(0)(c)pi systems and its heavy-flavor counterpart . In both heavy-quark sectors, the strong interaction is formulated within two distinct theoretical frameworks, each constrained to reproduce the lowest-lying odd-parity isoscalar spin-1/2 resonances, Lambda(c)(2595) and Lambda(b)(5912), respectively. While the Sigma(0)(c)pi (_)pair is governed solely by the strong interaction, electrostatic contributions are included in the other two channels involving charged particles through relativistic Coulomb wave functions. We show that the differences observed in the scattering observables between the two strong-interaction models arise mainly from the specific ultraviolet regularization schemes employed. The inclusion of Coulomb effects induces only a very small increase in both the scattering length and the effective range. The resulting CFs in the charm and bottom sectors display analogous global features, in agreement with expectations from heavy-quark flavor symmetry. Both, the Sigma(++)(c)pi(+) and Sigma(+)(b)pi(+) CFs, when computed including only the strong interaction, exhibits substantial discriminating power among the different models. However, once Coulomb effects are incorporated, the CFs become largely affected by the repulsive electrostatic interaction, which diminishes their sensitivity to the details of the underlying strong dynamics, thereby reducing the capability to differentiate between theoretical descriptions. Thus, the Sigma(0)(c)pi CF-being free from Coulomb effects-provides the most suitable observable for constraining the strong dynamics of the isotensor Sigma(c)pi system.

Abstract: We study the correlation functions of the (BD+)-D-0, (B+D0) system, which develops a bound state of approximately 40MeV, using inputs consistent with the T-cc(3875) state. Then, we address the inverse problem starting from these correlation functions to determine the scattering observables related to the system, including the existence of the bound state and its molecular nature. The important output of the approach is the uncertainty with which these observables can be obtained, considering errors in the (BD+)-D-0, (B+D0) correlation functions typical of current values in correlation functions. We find that it is possible to obtain scattering lengths and effective ranges with relatively high precision and the existence of a bound state. Although the pole position is obtained with errors of the order of 50% of the binding energy, the molecular probability of the state is obtained with a very small error of the order of 6%. All these findings serve as motivation to perform such measurements in future runs of high energy hadron collisions.
