A variety of nuclear and hadron physics experiments are being performed using meson beams at the J-PARC Hadron Facility. As the first experiment at the facility, the pentaquark Theta+ was searched for in the pi- p -> K- X reaction with a…
We present results and suggestions on how to confirm the existence and resonant nature of the $Pc(4450)$ detected at LHCb through photoproduction experiments. We find that this narrow structure might have escaped detection in past…
The possibility of the existence of multiquark hadrons made of 4-quark for mesons and 5-quark for baryons was predicted by Gell-Mann in Ref. [1]. The renewed interest for the search of exotic pentaquark states was initiated by the paper by…
The $17^\text{th}$ edition of the international workshop on top quark physics featured a diverse set of outstanding results. This note is an attempt to summarize the workshop from the experimental perspective and suggest ways forward for…
The earlier search at HERMES for narrow baryon states excited in quasi-real photoproduction, decaying through the channel $pK_S^0\rightarrow p\pi^+\pi^-$, has been extended with improved decay-particle reconstruction, more advanced particle…
With the recent discovery of the $\Theta(1540)$ pentaquark, the question of its parity is paramount since this will constrain the correct description of its internal structure. We show that the measurement of the spin singlet and triplet…
We study properties of the pentaquark particle Theta+ with emphasis on the role of chiral symmetry. It is shown that when chiral force is sufficiently strong, the positive parity Theta+ may be realized with a lower mass relative to the…
The experimental status of the pentaquark searches is briefly reviewed. Recent null results by the CLAS collaboration are commented, and new strong evidence of a very narrow Theta+ resonance by the DIANA collaboration is presented. On the…
We study $np\to \Lambda\Theta^{+}$ and $np\to \Sigma^{0}\Theta^{+}$ processes for both of the positive and negative parities of the $\Theta^{+}$. Employing the effective chiral Lagrangians for the $KNY$ and $K^*NY$ interactions, we…
The working group on electroweak measurements and searches for new physics at the Deep Inelastic Scattering 2012 workshop covered a wide range of results from the various experiments at the LHC (ATLAS, CMS, LHCb), the Tevatron (CDF, DO) and…
There are experimental evidences for the existence of narrow states $\Theta^+$ and $\Theta_c$ with the same quantum numbers of $uudd\bar s$ and $uudd\bar c$ pentaquarks and also $NK^{(*)}$ and $ND^{(*)}$ molecular states. Their masses…
Leptoquark searches are considered for future experiments at HERA, Tevatron, LHC, TESLA and THERA. Expected exclusion limits from direct leptoquark searches (leptoquark pair production and single leptoquark production) are compared with…
The present experimental evidence for the existence of light pentaquarks is reviewed, including both positive and null results. I also discuss the CLAS experiments at Jefferson Laboratory that are forthcoming in the near future to address…
The status of the search for pentaquark baryons is reviewed in light of new results from the first two dedicated experiments from CLAS at Jefferson Lab and of new analyses from several laboratories on the $Theta^+(1540)$. Evidence for and…
A high-resolution (sigma_instr. = 1.5 MeV) search for narrow states (Gamma < 10 MeV) with masses of M_x approx 1500-1850 MeV in ep -> e'K^+ X, e'K^- X and e' pi^+ X electroproduction at small angles and low Q^2 was performed. These states…
The reaction $\gamma p \to pK^+K^-$ was studied at Jefferson Lab with photon energies from 1.8 to 3.8 GeV using a tagged photon beam. The goal was to search for a $\Theta^{++}$ pentaquark, a narrow doubly charged baryon state having…
We examine the results of two measurements by the CLAS collaboration, one of which claimed evidence for a $\Theta^{+}$ pentaquark, whilst the other found no such evidence. The unique feature of these two experiments was that they were…
After reviewing the basics, topics in this talk include an attempted survey of theoretical contributions to this workshop, some extra specific comments on quark models, and a summary.
The experimental talks presented in the working group D ``Heavy Flavours'' of the DIS04 workshop are summarised. New and recently updated results from Tevatron, HERA, LEP, B-factories and neutrino experiments are discussed.
This article summarises the highlights of the recent experimental findings on strangeness production presented at the 16th edition of the {\it International Conference on Strangeness in Quark Matter} in Berkeley. Results obtained by eight…
