P-wave pentaquarks with strangeness +1, I=0 and J^P=1/2^+ are studied in the non-relativistic quark model with instanton induced interaction (III). We present their mass splittings and orbital-spin-isospin-color structures. It is found that…
Recently several experiments have reported evidences for pentaquark $\Theta^+$. H1 experiment at HERA-B has also reported evidence for $\Theta_c$. $\Theta^+$ is interpreted as a bound state of an $\bar s$ with other four light quarks $udud$…
We construct the spin-flavor wave functions of the possible heavy pentaquarks containing an anti-charm or anti-bottom quark using various clustered quark models. Then we estimate the masses and magnetic moments of the $J^P={1\over 2}^+$ or…
The production of third generation leptoquarks can give rise to multilepton events accompanied by jets and missing transverse energy. In this work we study the signals of these leptoquarks at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and compare them…
States beyond those expected in the simple constituent quark model are now emerging. I focus on the scalar glueball and its mixing with states in the $q\bar{q}$ nonet, and also on correlations in Strong QCD that may form diquarks and seed…

Spin structure of the reaction ${\vec p}{\vec n}\to {\vec \Lambda^0} {\vec \Theta}$ is analysed at the threshold in a model independent way under assumption that the $\Theta^+$ is an isosinglet. We found that the sign of the spin-spin…
Strong and weak decays of pentaquarks are studied in the framework of the light-front approach.
This paper gives highlights of the experimental results shown at this conference.
We study the possibility that at least one of the two pentaquark structures recently reported by LHCb can be described as a compact pentaquark state, and we give predictions for new channels that can be studied by the experimentalists if…
In this talk, multiquarks are studied microscopically in a standard quark model. In pure ground-state pentaquarks the short-range interaction is computed and it is shown to be repulsive. An additional quark-antiquark pair is then…
The past seventeen years have witnessed tremendous progress on the experimental and theoretical explorations of the multiquark states. The hidden-charm and hidden-bottom multiquark systems were reviewed extensively in [Phys. Rept. 639…
Direct and indirect leptoquark searches at colliders are reviewed.
In this talk, after a short overview of the history of the discovery of tetra-quarks and penta-quarks, we will discuss a possible interpretation of such states in the framework of a 40-years-old "string junction" picture that allows a…
Theoretical investigations of the pentaquark states which were recently discovered provide important information on their nature and structure. It is necessary to study the spectroscopic parameters like masses and residues of particles…
We study the electroproduction of the LHCb pentaquark states with the assumption that they are resonant states. The main concern here is to investigate the final state distribution in the phase space in order to extract the feeble…
A controlled decoherence environment is studied experimentally by free electron interaction with semiconducting and metallic plates. The results are compared with physical models based on decoherence theory to investigate the…
In this review there is first a survey of the HERA data. Then we discuss the theory response including querying the consistency of the data, compositeness, contact terms, and leptoquarks including as a special case the R symmetry violating…
We analyse numerically manifestations of the radiative amplitude zero (RAZ) effect in single leptoquark production associated with hard photon emission. We present some quantitative conclusions on the possibility to distinguish leptoquark…
This article shows that the there is no paradox. Violation of Bell's inequalities should not be identified with a proof of non locality in quantum mechanics. A number of past experiments is reviewed, and it is concluded that the…
