We report on searches in deep inelastic $ep$ scattering for narrow baryonic states decaying into $\Xi^-\pi^-, \Xi^-\pi^+, \KS p$ and their charge conjugates, at centre-of-mass energies of 300 and 318 GeV. No signal for a new narrow baryonic…
Pentaquark states have been extensively investigated theoretically in the context of the constituent quark model. In this paper results of an experimental search for pentaquarks in the \Xim\pim, \Xim\pip, \Xip\pim and \Xip\pip invariant…
A search for a manifestly exotic S=-2 baryon state decaying to Xi- pi-, and its neutral partner decaying to Xi- pi+, has been performed using 220 pb^(-1) of pp= collisions at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab.…
Narrow Xi-pi+- and Xi-bar+pi+- resonances produced by quasi-real photons have been searched for by the COMPASS experiment at CERN. The study was stimulated by the recent observation of an exotic baryonic state decaying into Xi-pi-, at a…
Investigations of the existence of pentaquark states containing a single $b$ (anti)quark decaying weakly into four specific final states J/$\psi K^+\pi^- p$, J/$\psi K^- \pi^- p$, J/$\psi K^- \pi^+ p$, and $J/\psi \phi (1020) p$ are…

This paper presents the results of inclusive searches for the strange pentaquark states $\Theta^+(1540)$, $\Xi_5^{--}(1860)$ and $\Xi_5(1860)^{0}$ as well as the anti-charm pentaquark state $\Theta_c(3099)^{0}$ in a dataset of 123.4…
We report on the progress of the pentaquark searches by the STAR collaboration in p+p, d+Au, and Au+Au at $s_{NN}=\sqrt{200}$ GeV collisions through one of the decay modes of $\Theta^{+}\to p+K_{s}^{0}$. $\Theta^{+}$ state is an exotic…
A search for hidden-charm pentaquark states decaying to a range of $\Sigma_{c}\bar{D}$ and $\Lambda_{c}\bar{D}$ final states, as well as doubly-charmed pentaquark states to $\Sigma_{c}D$ and $\Lambda_{c}^{+}D$, is made using samples of…
Experimental results of a search for the Xi_(3/2)(1860) cascade pentaquark state in data collected with the CDF 2 Detector in Run II at the Tevatron are presented. No evidence for these states in the neutral Xi-pi+ and doubly charged Xi-pi-…
A potential quark model is used to search for a $P_{c\bar{c}s}^0=(c\bar{c}uds)^0$, $J^P=1/2^-$ pentaquark state that has recently been observed experimentally by the LHCb collaboration at 4338.2 MeV, with a width of 7.0 MeV and high…
We report results of the first search for the pentaquark P_{{c bar}s} which is predicted to be a doublet of states: P^0_{{c bar}s}=({c bar} s u u d) and P^-_{{c bar}s}=({c bar} s d d u). A search was made for the decay P^0_{{c bar}s} -->…
Searches for narrow baryonic states in the K0s-p, K+p, Xi-pi and bar{X}+pi decay channels are reported. The data were collected with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 121 pb-1. The searches were performed in the…
Results on spectroscopy from the H1 and ZEUS collaborations are presented. The main focus is to search for baryon states which could be interpreted as pentaquarks. This includes states decaying to K^0_sp and K^0_s\bar{p}, \Xi\pi and D*p. In…
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…
We present an inclusive search for strange pentaquark production in e+e- interactions at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV using 123 fb-1 of data collected with the BaBar detector. We look for the states that have been reported…
The strange-anticharmed Pentaquark is a $uud\bar{c}s$ or $udd\bar{c}s$ five-quark baryon that is expected to be either a narrow resonance, or possibly even stable against strong and electromagnetic decay. We describe this hyperon here, its…
