Abstract
We explore various Λc states, including Λc, Λc(2595), Λc(2940), and the predicted (D¯N) hadronic molecular states, in photoproduction and electroproduction to estimate their yields at the EicC and EIC. Assuming Λc(2940) as either a hadronic molecular state or a three-quark state, our analysis demonstrates that its production rates are of the same order of magnitude, posing challenges in identifying its underlying structure. After considering the integral luminosity, the yields of Λc excited states reach 106 to 107 at the EicC and EIC. The (D¯N) molecular states with both isospin I=0 and I=1 are also studied, with yields reaching 105, making them likely to be detectable at these facilities.
