Abstract

The femtoscopic correlation technique in relativistic heavy-ion collisions provides a unique opportunity to investigate hadron-hadron interactions and possible exotic states. In this work, we study the pΛc correlation function and its sensitivity to the low-energy NΛc interaction related to possible 3ΛcH bound states. Based on the quark delocalization color screening model, three interaction scenarios with different strengths are constructed, and the corresponding spin-averaged pΛc correlation functions are calculated within the Koonin--Pratt formalism. The results demonstrate that the correlation function is sensitive to the pΛc interaction strength, with coupled-channel effects and S-D wave mixing producing additional enhancements in the correlation signal. These findings suggest that future pΛc femtoscopic measurements at relativistic heavy-ion collision experiments can provide valuable constraints on the interaction between charmed baryons and nucleons and offer guidance for exploring possible heavy-flavor hypernuclei.
