We study heavy hadron spectroscopy near heavy meson thresholds. We employ heavy pseudoscalar meson P and heavy vector meson P* as effective degrees of freedom and consider meson exchange potentials between them. All possible composite…

We follow a model based on the SU(8) symmetry for the interaction of mesons with baryons. The model treats on an equal footing the pseudo-scalars and the vector mesons, as required by heavy quark symmetry. The T-matrix calculated within an…

The exciting discovery by LHCb of the $P_c(4312)^+$ and $P_c(4450)^+$ pentaquarks, or the suggestion of a tetraquark nature for the $Z_c(3900)$ state seen at BESIII and Belle, have triggered a lot of activity in the field of hadron physics,…

The strange-anticharmed Pentaquark is a uud(cbar)s or udd(cbar)s five-quark baryon that is expected to be either a narrow resonance, or possibly even stable against strong decay. We describe this hyperon here; its structure, binding energy…

An exotic meson, the $\pi_1(1400)$ with $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$, has been seen to decay into a p-wave $\eta\pi$ system. If this decay conserves flavor SU(3), then it can be shown that this exotic meson must be a four-quark state ($q\bar q+q\bar q$)…

In the large $N_c$ limit both heavy and light baryons are described by the universal mean field, which allows us to relate the properties of heavy baryons to light ones. With the only input from the decays of light octet baryons (due to the…

We classify the meson and baryon long lived resonances considering quarks with electric charge 5/3 and $-4/3$ (in units of $\vert e\vert$) predicted by some 3-3-1 models. Some of these exotic resonances have the usual electric charges…

We study the possibility that four $\Xi$ resonances $(\Xi(1620)$, $\Xi(1690)$, $\Xi(1820)$, $\Xi(1950))$ could correspond to pentaquark states, in the form of meson-baryon bound systems. We also explore the possible existence of doubly…

Using the color-magnetic interaction Hamiltonian with SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking, we perform a schematic study of the masses of the $J^P=1^+$ tetraquarks in the anti-decuplet representation. After diagonalizing the mass matrix, we find…

Strange multi-baryonic clusters are an exiting possibility to explore the properties of cold dense baryonic matter. Recent results on searches for exotic narrow resonances with $\Lambda$ hyperon subsystems are reviewed. The observation of…

We use the perturbation method to calculate the masses and widths for 27-plet baryons with spin 3/2 from chiral soliton models. According to the masses and quantum numbers, we find all the candidates for non-exotic members of 27-plet. The…

The existence of an anti-decuplet of pentaquark particles has been predicted some year ago within the chiral soliton model. In the last year, several experimental groups have reported evidence for a S=+1 baryon resonance, with mass ranging…

The narrow width of the exotic narrow baryon resonance $\Theta^+$ might be explained by mixing between the two nearly degenerate states that arise in models with two diquarks and an antiquark. The only open $\Theta^+$ decay channel is $KN$.…

The charge-exchange reaction K^+ Xe --> K^0 p Xe' is investigated using the data of the DIANA experiment. The distribution of the pK^0 effective mass shows a prominent enhancement near 1538 MeV formed by \sim 80 events above the background,…

The strange pentaquarks with hidden heavy quark pair ($q^3c\bar c$ and $q^3b \bar b$) are investigated by the coupled-channel quark cluster model. Two types of the $q^3$ color-octet configurations are found to provide the attraction, which…

Experimental data from the 2m propane bubble chamber have been analyzed to search for an exotic baryon states, in the $\Lambda K^0_s$ decay mode for the reaction p+$C_3H_8$ at 10 GeV/c. The invariant mass spectrum $\Lambda K^0_s$ observe a…

A diquark model is used to investigate single charmed baryons. In this model, baryon is composed of two diquarks and an antiquark. Masses of lowest lying states with $J^P= 1/2 ^ \pm$ are obtained. Some masses are smaller than other…

In this talk I look into three different topics, addressing first the possibility that the $\Theta^+$ is a bound state of $K \pi N$, exploiting the results of this study to find out the contribution of two meson and one baryon components in…

We examine several assignments of spin and parity for the pentaquark Theta+ state (J^P=1/2^{+,-}, 3/2^{+,-}) in connection with known baryon resonances. Assuming that the Theta+ belongs to an antidecuplet representation which mixes with an…

We estimate the mass and the width of pentaquark $\Theta^*$ states in the 27-plet from chiral soliton models. The calculations show that the mass of $\Theta^*$ is about 1.60 GeV and the width for the process $\Theta^*\to {KN}$ is less than…
