Observations of exotic structures in the j\psi p channel, that we refer to as pentaquark-charmonium states, in Lamda_b to j\psi p K^- decays are presented. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3 inverse femtobarns acquired with the LHCb detector from 7 and 8 TeV pp collisions. An amplitude analysis is performed on the three-body final state that reproduces all the angular...
