In this talk I report on a computation of the spectra of exotic pentaquarks and radial excitations of the low--lying ${1/2}^+$ and ${3/2}^+$ baryons in a chiral soliton model. In addition I present model results for the transition magnetic…
Some old and new evidence for the existence of the string (planar random surfaces) representation of multicolour QCD are reviewed. They concern the random surface representation of the strong coupling expansion in lattice multicolour gauge…
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 ${q}\bar{q}$ spectrum is studied within a chiral constituent quark model. It provides with a good fit of the available experimental data from light (vector and pseudoscalar) to heavy mesons. The new $D$ states measured at different…
The considered model of baryon consists of three pointlike masses (quarks) bounded pairwise by relativistic strings forming a curvilinear triangle. Classic analytic solutions for this model corresponding to a planar uniform rotation about…
The spectrum of doubly heavy baryons, hadrons made up of two heavy quarks and one light quark, is computed through a potential model with relativistic kinematics. The expression for the $Q\bar Q$ potential comes from the AdS/QCD…
We numerically investigate the transition of the static quark-antiquark string into a static-light meson-antimeson system. Improving noise reduction techniques, we are able to resolve the signature of string breaking dynamics for n_f=2…
In this article, we study the mass spectrum of the scalar and axial-vector heavy diquark states with the QCD sum rules in a systematic way. Once the reasonable values are obtained, we can take them as basic parameters and study the new…
QCD at finite density presents specific challenges to lattice gauge theory. Nonetheless, a region of the QCD phase diagram up to moderately large baryon chemical potentials has been successfully explored on the lattice and new results and…
We use the method of QCD Sum Rules to estimate the masses of the charm baryon, $\Lambda^+_c$, bottom baryon $\Lambda^0_b$, strange baryon $\Lambda^0_s$ and compare them to their experimental values.
I review recent lattice results on the spectrum and structure of baryons. Limitations due to the quenched approximation and un-physically heavy up and down quarks are discussed, and interfaces between first principles studies of QCD (or…
The QCD-motivated constituent string model is extended to consider the baryon. The system of three quarks propagating in the confining background field is studied in the Wilson loop approach, and the effective action is obtained. The…
We use the QCD sum rule approach to calculate the masses of the Lambda_Q and Sigma_Q baryons to the Lambda_{QCD}/m_Q order within the framework of heavy quark effective theory. We compare the direct approach and the covariant approach to…
Recent observations by Belle and BESIII of charged quarkonium-like resonances give new stimulus for theoretical investigation of exotic hadrons in general and heavy tetraquarks in particular. We use QED_2, a confining theory, as a model for…
We report an attempt of deriving a string representation of QCD based on a novel vacuum condensate of mass dimension 2.
A simple quark-diquark model for the baryons is constructed as a partial solution to the well known missing resonances problem. A complete classification of the baryonic states in the quark-diquark framework is given and the spectrum is…
Recently CDF and D0 collaborations observed several bottom baryons. In this work we perform a systematic study of the masses of bottom baryons up to $1/m_Q$ in the framework of heavy quark effective field theory (HQET) using the QCD sum…
During the last ten years, intriguing dualities between gauge and string theory have been found and explored. They provide a novel window on strongly coupled gauge physics, including QCD-like models. Based on a short historical review of…
We study QCD-like theories with pseudoreal fermions at finite baryon density. Such theories include two-color QCD with quarks in the fundamental representation of the color group as well as any-color QCD with quarks in the adjoint color…
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…
