The binding is a cooperative effect of the chromoelectric and chromomagnetic components of the interaction, and it disappears in the static limit with a pure chromoelectric potential. Their wave function contains color sextet and color octet configurations for the subsystems and can hardly be reduced to a molecular state made of two interacting hadrons. These pentaquark states could be searched for in the experiments having discovered or confirmed the hidden-charm meson and baryon resonances. %R 10.1016/j.physletb.2017.10.036 %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1710.08239 %U https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2017.10.036 %P 710-714
