Several recent experiments have reported evidence for a narrow baryon resonance with positive strangeness ($\Theta^+$) at a mass of 1.54 GeV/$c^2$. Baryons with $S=+1$ cannot be conventional $qqq$ states and the reports have thus generated…
Evidence for a narrow baryon state at 1528 +- 2.6(stat) +- 2.1(syst) MeV is presented in quasi-real photoproduction on a deuterium target through the decay channel p,K0 to p,pi+,pi-. The statistical significance of the peak in the p,K0…
We calculate the masses of the $qq\bar q\bar q$ tetraquark ground state and first radial excited state in a constituent quark model where the Cornell-like potential and one-gluon exchange spin-spin coupling are employed. The three coupling…
Exotic resonant structures found in $\Lambda^0_b$ and $\overline{B}^0$ decays into charmonium in the LHCb experiment are discussed. Examination of the $J/\psi p$ system in $\Lambda^0_b\to J/\psi K^- p$ decays shows two states each of which…
Predictions for the low-lying excitation spectrum of positive parity pentaquark systems containing one c or b antiquark and four light u,d quarks are obtained in the quark model picture for models with spin-dependent interactions given…
Additional broader I=0 states in the KN channel near $\Theta^+$(1540) are expected in many models, making the absence of any signature in the K$^+$-deuteron scattering data even more puzzling. In an ideal "three-body" picture the $\Theta$…
The pentaquark width is calculated in QCD sum rules. Result for $\Gamma_{\Theta}$ show, that $\Gamma_{\Theta}$ can vary in the region less than 1$MeV$. The main conclusion is, that if pentaquark is genuine states then sum rules really…
Pentaquark states in lattice QCD probably lie close in energy to two particle scattering states. Correctly identifying the resonant state is a challenging, yet tractable, problem given the terascale computing facilities available today. We…
We describe pentaquarks as baryo-charmonia with a color octet $c\bar{c}$ core bonded to a color octet three-quark system. Fermi statistics of the light quark cloud allows to describe two pentaquark triplets: a lower one, well supported by…
A systematic lowering in mass of strangeness ambiguous $pK^0_S$ peaks relative to the $nK^+$ is noted. We discuss how measurement of $\gamma p\to \Theta^+ K^0_S\to p K^0_S K^0_S \to p\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ in association with $\gamma p\to…
We present the spectrum of the lightest pentaquark states of both parities and compare it with the present experimental evidence for these states. We have assumed that the main role for their mass splittings is played by the chromo-magnetic…
We review the current status of the exotic pentaquark baryons. After a brief look at experiments of both positive and negative results, we discuss theoretical methods to study the structure and reactions for the pentaquarks. First we…
With the chiral quark model, we have calculated the axial charges of the pentaquark states with $(I,I_3)=(\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2})$ and $J^{P}=\frac{1}{2}^{\pm},\frac{3}{2}^{\pm},\frac{5}{2}^{\pm}$. The $P_c$ states with the same $J^P$…
In this article, we study the magnetic moment of the pentaquark state $ \Theta^+(1540)$ with the QCD sum rules approach in the external electromagnetic field. The numerical results indicate the magnetic moment of the pentaquark state $…
We present a consistent color-flavor-spin-orbital wave function for a positive parity Theta^+ that naturally explains the observed narrowness of the state. The wave function is totally symmetric in its flavor-spin part and totally…
Having successfully explored the existing relations between the S-matrix and collision times in scattering reactions to study the conventional baryon and meson resonances, the method is now extended to the exotic sector. To be specific, the…
We consider a $[ud]^2\bar{s}$ current in the QCD sum rule framework to study the mass of the recently observed pentaquark state $\Theta^+(1540)$, obtaining good agreement with the experimental value. We also study the mass of the pentaquark…
Recent experimental evidence for the Theta^+(1540) has given rise to much theoretical interest in exotic baryons. The Theta^+ is a baryon that has strangeness S=+1, meaning that it contains an anti-strange quark. Thus it cannot be…
This paper focuses on tetraquarks containing one heavy quark and one heavy antiquark in the formal limit where the heavy quark masses go to infinity. It extends the theoretical framework developed for tetraquark containing two heavy quarks…
Treating the $X(4140)$ as a compact $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ state and using its mass as a reference scale, we systematically estimate the masses of doubly heavy tetraquark states $QQ\bar{q}\bar{q}$ where $Q=c,b$ and $q=u,d,s$.…
