The evidence for the existence of mesons with exotic quantum numbers and of hybrid candidates with non-exotic quantum numbers is critically reviewed, including candidates with hidden charm. Aims and methods of future searches for hybrid…
An overview of recent theoretical developments in rare leptonic B decays is given. New physics effects on branching ratio and CP violation in the decays are analyzed in models beyond SM (supersymmetric models and two Higgs doublet models).
We consider the effect of an exotic S=+1 $\Theta^+$ resonance on the scattering of neutral kaons off protons. Explicit results are presented for the $K^0_L p$ total cross sections.
Intriguing signals with excesses over expected backgrounds have been observed in many astrophysical and terrestrial settings, which could potentially have a dark matter origin. Astrophysical excesses include the Galactic Center GeV…
Models based on chiral symmetry predict pentaquarks that have relatively low masses. We briefly review both theoretical and experimental status of exotica in the light sector. Next, shall show how to extend chiral models to baryons with one…
The existence of the $\Theta^+$ pentaquark requires a peculiar mechanism to explain its stability. Looking at quark clusters, notably diquark and triquark configurations, such a mechanism may be found in the color-magnetic interaction…
We provide a brief topical outline of the persisting problem of the hyperon polarization and consider some future experimental prospects. The predictions which deserve experimental verification are proposed.
The latest results on searches for supersymmetry, extra dimensions and exotic phenomena from the LEP collaborations are presented. No significant signal-like excess is observed in the data. The results are interpreted in various models and…
The employment of interpolating currents of existed studies of four-quark state and glueball with QCD sum rule approach is analyzed. In terms of suitable currents, the masses of the lowest lying scalar and pseudo-scalar glueball were…
In this talk I summarize the capability of future lepton colliders to discover leptoquarks and to determine their electroweak quantum numbers. This analysis is an updated discussion based on the results presented in the Snowmass 1996 New…
We prove an improved form of an expectation of Polya and discuss several related questions
We improve the current predictions of the standard model for neutron beta decay observables and compare them with the currently available ones. Next we study their implications in the possible detection of new physics. We discuss where the…
We discuss the relatively low mass and narrow width prediction for the exotic baryon Theta+, and comment on recent statements by R.L. Jaffe on the subject. We reaffirm that a narrow width of 3.6-11.2 MeV follows from the equations of our…

We give an historical account, including recent progress, on some problems of Erd\H os in number theory.
Recent reports about the Theta+ (formerly known as Z+), a pentaquark state, have awakened considerable interest. We report our findings in search of a Theta++ state over a wide range in mass in the reaction gp-->Theta++K- from our analysis…
Recent observational and theoretical results on blazars are presented and discussed. We are beginning to understand the rich phenomenology of blazars, and we are finding trends which will hopefully lead us to unveil the physics of these…
In this short review we present and discuss all the experimental information about the charged exotic charmonium states, which have been observed over the last five years. We try to understand their properties such as masses and decay…
Further consequences of the 1540 MeV Theta+ resonance as an isotensor pentaquark beyond Capstick et al. are explored. It is argued that the SAPHIR data may not currently exclude the existence of the charged partner Theta++. The usual…
The problem of possible astrophysical consequences of the existence of exotic differential structures on manifolds is discussed. It is argued that corrections to the curvature of the form of a source like terms should be expected in the…
