  • The attractive interaction of the $ϕ$ meson and the proton is reported by the ALICE Collaboration, and the corresponding scattering length $f_0$ is given as $Re(f_0)=0.85\pm0.34(stat)\pm0.14(syst)$ fm and $Im(f_0)=0.16\pm0.10(stat)\pm0.09(syst)$ fm. The fact that the real part is significant in contrast to the imaginary part indicates a dominating role of the elastic scattering, whereas the inelastic process is less important. In this work, such scattering processes are inspected on the basis of a unitary coupled-channel approximation inspired by the Bethe-Salpeter equation. The $ϕp$ scattering length is calculated and it is found that the experimental value of the $ϕp$ scattering length can be obtained only if the attractive interaction of the $ϕ$ meson and the proton is taken into account. A significant outcome of such an attractive interaction is a two-pole structure in the scattering amplitude. One of the poles, located at $1969-i283$ MeV, might be a resonance state of $ϕN$, while the other pole, located at $1949-i3$ MeV, should be a bound state of $ϕN$. Both of these states do not have counterparts in the data of the Particle Data Group(PDG).
