Hadron masses show a specific dependence on the quark masses. Therefore, the variation of these masses can cause a resonance in a hadronic scattering amplitude to become a bound state. Consequently, the amplitude exhibits a non-analytic…
A previous work establishing a connection between a quark model, with relativistic kinematics and a $Y$-confinement plus one gluon exchange, and the $1/N_c$ expansion mass formula is extended to strange baryons. Both methods predict values…
The non-relativistic wave function framework is applied to study the production and decay of the exotic hadrons which can be effectively described as bound states of other hadrons. Employing the factorized formulation, we investigate the…
Resonances and enhancements in meson-meson scattering can be divided into two classes distinguished by their behavior as the number of colors N_c in QCD becomes large: The first are ordinary mesons that become stable as N_c goes to…
We investigate the possibility of clarifying internal structure of exotic hadrons by high-energy exclusive reactions. In particular, the constituent-counting rule could be used for determining the internal configuration in large-angle…
Recent discoveries by Belle and BESIII of charged exotic quarkonium-like resonances provide fresh impetus for study of heavy exotic hadrons. In the limit N_c --> infinity, M_Q --> infinity, the (Qbar Q qbar q') tetraquarks (TQ-s) are…
Excited baryons may be analyzed in the 1/N_c expansion as true resonances in scattering amplitudes. The key idea making this program possible is a generalization of methods originally applied to chiral soliton models in the 1980's. One…
The mass spectrum of P-wave mesons is considered in a nonrelativistic constituent quark model. The results show the common mass degeneracy of the isovector and isodoublet states of the scalar and tensor meson nonets, and do not exclude the…
In this work we study tetraquark bound states in the framework of the constituent quark model of Ref. [2], which has been used for the description of non-strange two- and three-baryon systems and later on applied to the hadron spectra.
The 1/N expansion for exotic baryons is developed, and applied to the masses, meson couplings and decay widths. Masses and widths of the 27 and 35 pentaquark states in the same tower as the Theta+ are related by spin-flavor symmetry. The 27…
I introduce an entirely new dynamical description for exotic charmoniumlike hadrons, based upon the competing effects of the strong attraction between quarks in a diquark, and the inability of the diquark to hadronize on its own due to…
Fully-heavy tetraquark states, i.e. $cc\bar{c}\bar{c}$, $bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$, $bb\bar{c}\bar{c}$ ($cc\bar{b}\bar{b}$), $cb\bar{c}\bar{c}$, $cb\bar{b}\bar{b}$, and $cb\bar{c}\bar{b}$, are systematically investigated by means of a…
This talk briefly discusses the set of meson resonances discovered in the latest decade. They are frequently treated in the literature as tetraquarks or hadron molecules. Our consideration (using the energy-time uncertainty relation)…
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…
Inspired by the recent report of the exotic states $X_{0}(2900)$ and $X_{1}(2900)$ with four different quark flavors in the $D^{-}K^{+}$ invariant mass distributions of the decay process $B^{+}\rightarrow D^{+}D^{-}K^{+}$ by the LHCb…
We report on a measurement of the top-quark electric charge in ttbar events in which one W boson originating from the top-quark pair decays into leptons and the other into hadrons. The event sample was collected by the CDF II detector in…
Motivated by recent developments in tetraquark studies, we investigate the mass spectra and decay properties of light-strange tetraquarks ($sq\bar{s}\bar{q},ss\bar{q}\bar{q}$) in diquark-antidiquark formalism. By considering different…
Recent results from H1, ZEUS, HERMES and HERA-B on searches for exotic baryons in ep collisions, eD scattering and pA scattering at HERA are reviewed. Evidence for the production of the strange pentaquark Theta^+ and of a narrow…
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 effective strange quark and antiquark masses are estimated from the chiral soliton approach (CSA) results for the spectrum of exotic and nonexotic baryons. There are problems when one tries to project results of the CSA on the simple…
