$\Theta+$: Another Explanation and Prediction

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2009-11-10 v2

Abstract

Recently the so-called Θ+\Theta^+ resonance has been reported first from SPring8\cite{nakano} and many following experiments showed apparent confirmation of the state. Since Θ+\Theta^+ exclusively decays into either K+nK^+ n or K0pK^0 p, it is explained as the predicted pentaquark state which includes uuddsˉ u u d d \bar{s} quarks. However, one yet has to obtain consistent picture of Θ+\Theta^+ and its quantum numbers. We try to explain Θ+\Theta^+ in a conventional picture and show that such picture leads to new predictions on kaon and pion system.
