DsJ(2860) as the first radial excitation of Ds0*(2317).
A coupled-channel model previously employed to describe the narrow Ds0*(2317) and broad D0*(2400) charmed scalar mesons is generalized so as to include all ground-state pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar and vector-vector two-meson channels. All parameters are chosen fixed at published values, except for the overall coupling constant, which is fine-tuned to reproduce the Ds0*(2317) mass. Thus, the radial excitations Ds0*(2850) and D0*(2740) are predicted, both with a width of about 50 MeV. The former state appears to correspond to the new DsJ(2860) resonance decaying to DK announced by BABAR in the course of this work. Also, the D0*(2400) resonance is roughly reproduced, though perhaps with a somewhat too low central resonance peak.
