The $\Theta^+$ Pentaquark is a Very narrow $\Gamma \approx 1$ MeV KN Resonance. Why do some experiments see it and others do not? The lowest quark configuration that can describe it is exotic $uudd \bar s$. Why have no exotics been seen…
The quark model does not exclude states composed of more than three quarks, like pentaquark systems. Controversial evidence for such states has been published in the last years, in particular: for a strange pentaquark Theta(1540)+; for a…
Expectations and predictions for pentaquark exotics based on the quark model perspective are presented. Recent quark model scenarios, and calculations performed in different realizations of the quark model approach, up to the end of March…
The LHCb Collaboration has observed two types of hidden-charm pentaquark states $P_{\psi}^N$ and $P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda}$ since 2015. In this work, we predict two other types of hidden-charm pentaquark states $P_{\psi s}^{\Sigma}(4367)$ and…
All the available experimental information on open charm and beauty mesons is used to classify the observed states in heavy quark doublets. The masses of some of the still unobserved states are predicted, in particular in the beauty sector.…
The strange pentaquarks with hidden heavy quark pair ($q^3c\bar c$ and $q^3b \bar b$) are investigated by the coupled-channel quark cluster model. Two types of the $q^3$ color-octet configurations are found to provide the attraction, which…
Inspired by the recent observation of new $\Omega_c^0$ states by the LHCb Collaboration, we explore the excited $\Omega_{c}$ states from the pentaquark perspective in the quark delocalization color screening model. Our results indicate that…
Recently there has been revival of interest in exotic baryon spectroscopy triggered by experimental evidence for pentaquarks containing u,d,s and c-quarks. We report results of the searches for pentaquark states in decays to p K0S, Xi-…
We present results from several searches for various exotic physics phenomena like large extra dimensions, leptoquarks, and dark matter, in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 and 8 TeV delivered by the LHC and collected with the CMS…
A brief review is given of the lattice QCD calculation of the hadron spectrum. The status of current attempts toward inclusion of dynamical up, down and strange quarks is summarized focusing on our own work. Recent work on the possible…
We review the experimental progress on the study of light and heavy hadrons and focus on recent discoveries of the XYZ states, pentaquark states, $T_{cs}$ and $T_{cc}$ states in the heavy hadron sector, and on the $\pi_1(1600)$ and the…
The recent LHCb discovery of states $P_c^+(4380)$, $P_c^+(4450)$, believed to be $c\bar c uud$ pentaquark resonances, begs the question of whether equivalent states with $c\bar c \to s\bar s$ exist, and how they might be produced. The…
The pentaquarks are exotic baryons formed of four quarks and an antiquarks. Their existence has been discussed in the literature over the last 30 years or more, first in connection with kaon nucleon scattering data. The subject has been…
The LHCb Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN discovered two pentaquark states $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4450)$. These two hidden-charm states are interpreted as the loosely bound $\Sigma_c(2455)D^*$ and $\Sigma_c^*(2520)D^*$…
The LHCb experiment is a forward spectrometer that offers a unique phase-space coverage at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Such a unique coverage offers the possibility to produce complementary and unique physics results in electroweak…
Non-strange and strange pentaquaks with hidden charm are considered as diquark-diquark-antiquark composite systems. Spin and isospin content of such exotic states is discussed and masses are evaluated.
Inspired by the very recently discovered tetraquark states $T_{c\bar s 0}^a(2900)^{0,++}$ from the LHCb Collaboration, we predict the existence of a new charmed-strange pentaquark system, $c\bar s nnn$, which is closely connected to $c\bar…
In recent years, lattice QCD calculations of hadron spectroscopy have concentrated on resonances and shallow bound states detected via poles in two- and three-hadron scattering amplitudes. Hadron interactions have therefore become a key…
Evidence for the production of exotic hadron states composed of five quarks (pentaquarks) has been searched for in data collected by the ALEPH, DELPHI, and L3 experiments at LEP. No significant signal is observed. Several 95% C.L. upper…
$QQ^\prime qq\bar q$ pentaquarks are studied in a potential model, under the hypothesis that they are composite objects of two diquarks and one antiquark. The interaction between two colored objects includes two contributions, one based on…
