Using data samples of 102 million ϒ⁑(1⁒𝑆) events and 158 million ϒ⁑(2⁒𝑆) events collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy 𝑒+β’π‘’βˆ’ collider, we search for [𝑒⁒𝑑⁒𝑠⁒𝑐$$\overline{𝑐}$$ ] pentaquark states decaying to 𝐽/πœ“β’Ξ›. Using the first observations of ϒ⁑(1⁒𝑆,2⁒𝑆) inclusive decays to 𝐽/πœ“β’Ξ›, we find evidence of the 𝑃𝑐$$\overline{𝑐}$$𝑠⁒(4459)0 state with a local significance of 3.3 standard deviations, including statistical and systematic uncertainties. We measure the mass and width of the 𝑃𝑐$$\overline{𝑐}$$𝑠⁒(4459)0 to be (4471.7Β±4.8Β±0.6) MeV/𝑐2 and (22 Β±13 Β±3) MeV, respectively. The branching fractions for 𝑃𝑐$$\overline{𝑐}$$𝑠⁒(4459)0 production are measured to be ℬ⁑[ϒ⁑(1⁒𝑆)→𝑃𝑐$$\overline{𝑐}$$𝑠⁒(4459)0/ $$\overline{𝑃}$$𝑐$$\overline{𝑐}$$𝑠⁒(4459)0+anything]=(3.5Β±2.0Β±0.2)Γ—10βˆ’6 and ℬ⁑[ϒ⁑(2⁒𝑆)→𝑃𝑐$$\overline{𝑐}$$𝑠⁒(4459)0/$$\overline{𝑃}$$𝑐$$\overline{𝑐}$$𝑠⁒(4459)0+anything]=(2.9Β±1.7Β±0.4)Γ—10βˆ’6. The inclusive branching fractions of ϒ⁑(1⁒𝑆,2⁒𝑆) →𝐽/πœ“β’Ξ›/$$\overline{Ξ›}$$ are measured to be ℬ⁑[ϒ⁑(1⁒𝑆) →𝐽/πœ“β’Ξ›/$$\overline{Ξ›}$$ +anything] =(36.9 Β±5.3 Β±2.4) Γ—10βˆ’6 and ℬ⁑[ϒ⁑(2⁒𝑆) →𝐽/πœ“β’Ξ›/$$\overline{Ξ›}$$ +anything] =(22.3 Β±5.7 Β±3.1) Γ—10βˆ’6. We measure the visible cross section 𝜎⁑(𝑒+β’π‘’βˆ’β†’π½/πœ“β’Ξ›/ $$\overline{Ξ›}$$ +anything)=(90Β±14Β±6) fb for the continuum production at βˆšπ‘  =10.52 GeV. In all cases, the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.
