The recently reported Theta(1540) exotic baryon seems to be very narrow: Gamma(Theta)< 1 MeV according to some analyses. Using methods of low energy scattering theory, we develop expectations for the width of the Theta, an elastic resonance…
We consider the effect of exotic S=+1 resonances Theta+ and Theta++ on K+p elastic scattering data (total cross section) and the process K0_Lp-->K0_Sp. Data near the observed Theta+(1540) are examined for evidence of additional states. The…
We analyze the possibility to produce an intermediate Theta^+ via a KN->\Theta+ formation process in gamma D-> pK^- X (X=nK^+,pK^0) reactions at some specific kinematical conditions, in which a pK^- pair is knocked out in the forward…
The \gamma d \to K^+K^-pn reaction has been studied to search for the evidence of the \Theta^+ by detecting K^+K^- pairs at forward angles. The Fermi-motion corrected nK^+ invariant mass distribution shows a narrow peak at 1.524 +- 0.002 +…
Motivated by the recent experimental evidence of the exotic B = S = +1 baryonic state Theta(1540), we examine the older existing data on K+ N elastic scattering through the time delay method. We find positive peaks in time delay around…
The pp -> p K0 Sigma+ reaction was investigated with the TOF spectrometer at COSY at 3.059 GeV/c incident beam momentum. The main objective was to clarify whether or not a narrow exotic S = +1 resnance, the Theta+ pentaquark, is populated…
A narrow resonance peak was observed at 1.54 +/- 0.01 GeV as an exotic baryon with strangeness S = +1 in the gamma + n going to K^+ + K^- + n reaction on Carbon. The new state have a width smaller than 0.025 GeV and a Gaussian significance…
In the present work, we investigate the hidden-strangeness production process in the $S=+1$ channel via $K^+p\to K^+\phi\,p$, focussing on the exotic \textit{pentaquark} molecular $K^*\Sigma$ bound state, assigned by $P^+_s(2071,3/2^-)$.…
Given the growing evidence for an exotic S = +1 resonance, seen in kaon, photon and neutrino induced reactions, we reexamine the existing K+p and K+d database in order to understand how such a state could have been missed in previous…
We study the \proc reaction, showing that a peak in the \dk mass distribution around 2834 MeV reported by LHCb could be associated with a theoretical exotic state with that mass, a width of 19 MeV and $J^P=2^+$, stemming from the…
We present a calculation of the $\gamma d \to K^+ K^- n p $ reaction with the aim of seeing if the experimental peak observed in the $K^+ n$ invariant mass around 1526 MeV, from where evidence for the existence of the $\Theta^+$ has been…
SVD-2 experiment data have been analyzed to search for an exotic baryon state, the $\Theta^+$-baryon, in a $pK^0_s$ decay mode at $70 GeV/c$ on IHEP accelerator. The reaction $pA \to pK^0_s+X$ with a limited multiplicity was used in the…
We reconsider the relationship between the bound state and the SU(3) rigid rotator approaches to strangeness in the Skyrme model. For non-exotic S=-1 baryons the bound state approach matches for small m_K onto the rigid rotator approach,…
We investigate the impact of the \Theta^+(1540) resonance on differential and integrated cross sections for the reaction K^+d{\to}K^0pp, where experimental information is available at kaon momenta below 640 MeV/c. The calculation utilizes…
Strange multi-baryonic clusters are an exiting possibility to explore the properties of cold dense baryonic matter. Recent results on searches for exotic narrow resonances with $\Lambda$ hyperon subsystems are reviewed. The observation of…
In 1997 Diakonov, Petrov, and Polyakov, calculated the width of the exotic baryon that they called $\Theta^{+}$. The prediction, $\Gamma(\Theta^{+})\lesssim$ 15 MeV, has received considerable attention, especially in light of the narrowness…
he observed well-known resonances $\Sigma^0$ $\Sigma^{*+}$(1385) and $K^{*\pm}$(892) from PDG are good tests of this method. Exotic strange multibaryon states have been observed in the effective mass spectra of: $\Lambda \pi^{\pm}$,$\Lambda…
Recently the so-called $\Theta^+$ resonance has been reported first from SPring8\cite{nakano} and many following experiments showed apparent confirmation of the state. Since $\Theta^+$ exclusively decays into either $K^+ n$ or $K^0 p$, it…
We have searched for a bound state of kaon and pion denoted by $X$. The $X$ was conjectured to explain the so-called $\Theta^+$ resonance as a bound state of kaon, pion and nucleon. This model explains almost all properties of the…
A partial wave analysis (PWA) of the of the $\eta \pi ^0$ system (where $\eta \to \gamma \gamma$) produced in the charge exchange reaction $\pi ^-p\to \eta \pi ^0n$ at an incident momentum of 18 GeV$/c$ is presented as a function of ${\eta…
