The penta-quark(5Q) Theta^+(1540) is studied in anisotropic lattice QCD with renormalized anisotropy a_s/a_t=4 for a high-precision measurement. Both the positive and the negative parity 5Q baryons are studied using a non-NK type…
We construct a chiral lagrangian for pentaquark baryons assuming that the recently found Theta^+ (1540) state belongs to an antidecuplet of SU(3) flavor symmetry with J^P = (1/2)^(+-). We derive the Gell-Mann-Okubo formulae for the…
We study spin 1/2 isoscalar and isovector, even and odd parity candidates for the $\Theta^+(1540)$ pentaquark particle using large scale lattice QCD simulations. Previous lattice works led to inconclusive results because so far it has not…
In this talk I show recent results on how many excited baryon resonances appear as systems of one meson and one baryon, or two mesons and one baryon, with the mesons being either pseudoscalar or vectors. Connection with experiment is made…
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…
We discuss the likely tetraquark interpretation of the X(1576) K+ K- isovector resonance recently reported by BES with J^{PC}=1^{--}. We point out that if this interpretation as a four-quark state is correct, the (s u sbar dbar) tetraquark…
The K0s-p invariant mass spectrum was reconstructed in several kinematic regions with the main emphasis on the studies of the production mechanism of the Theta+ candidate recently observed by ZEUS. The candidate Theta+ signal was found to…
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…
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…
A new mechanism of the production of hypothetical $\Theta(ud\bar{s}ud)^+$ pentaquark state is suggested. The considered mechanism is based on the exchange by exotic Regge trajectories in the $t$ channel. It is shown that the momentum…
Since all couplings of the exotic $\Theta^+$ baryon to normal hadrons seem to be small it is hard to reveal it in standard resonance searching. We suggest to look for the $\Theta^+$ production in interference with a known resonance yielding…
We have searched for Theta^+(1540) and Xi^{--}(1862) pentaquark candidates in proton-induced reactions on C, Ti and W targets at mid-rapidity and \sqrt{s} = 41.6 GeV. In 2x10^8 inelastic events we find no evidence for narrow (sigma~5 MeV)…
Prompted by the recent surprising results in QCD spectroscopy, we extend to heavy flavors the hadron mass relations showing that the constituent quark mass differences and ratios have the same values when obtained from mesons and baryons.…
We study the recently discovered Theta^+ baryon in the context of the perturbative chiral quark model. The basic configuration of the Theta^+ is set up as a pentaquark bound state, where the single particle wave functions are the ground…
Recent strong experimental evidence of a narrow exotic S = +1 baryon resonance, $\Theta^+$, suggests the existence of other exotic baryons. We discuss the prospects of confirming earlier experimental evidence of $\Theta^+$ and the…
Long-standing anomalies in K^+ nucleus integral cross sections could be resolved by extending the impulse-approximation t*rho optical-potential framework to incorporate K^+ absorption on pairs of nucleons. Substantially improved fits to the…
We estimate the high-energy behavior of the $\Theta^+$ and $\Lambda(1520)$ production cross sections in inclusive $pp$ collisions using the $K$ exchange diagram. We show that the cross section of the $\Theta^+$-production is suppressed…
We examine the prospects for probing heavy top quark-antiquark (t-tbar) resonances at the upgraded LHC in pp collisions at $\root_s = 14 TeV. Heavy t-tbar resonances (Z' bosons) are predicted by several theories that go beyond the standard…
A search for resonances in top quark pair ($\text{t}\bar{\text{t}}$) production in final states with two charged leptons and multiple jets is presented, based on proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC…
Based on the hadronic model with the gauge prescription suggested by Ohta and Haberzettl, we investigate the possibility of determining the parity state of the $\Theta^+$ baryon using photon induced processes, $\gamma n\to K^- \Theta^+$ and…
