We examine several assignments of spin and parity for the pentaquark Theta+ state (J^P=1/2^{+,-}, 3/2^{+,-}) in connection with phenomenology of known baryon resonances, using a general framework based on the flavor symmetry. Assuming that…
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 study photoproduction reactions for Theta^+, which was recently observed as a candidate of an exotic five quark state uudd(bar s). We employ effective lagrangian interactions in the linear and non-linear formalism of chiral symmetry and…
Details of the analysis of the eta pi- system studied in the reaction pi^{-} p --> eta pi^{-} p at 18 GeV/c are given. Separate analyses for the 2 gamma and pi+ pi- pi0 decay modes of the eta are presented. An amplitude analysis of the data…
We study the recently discovered Theta^+ baryon in the context of the perturbative chiral quark model. The basic configuration of the Theta^+ is set up as a pentaquark bound state, where the single particle wave functions are the ground…
Since all couplings of the exotic $\Theta^+$ baryon to normal hadrons seem to be small it is hard to reveal it in standard resonance searching. We suggest to look for the $\Theta^+$ production in interference with a known resonance yielding…
We study the $K^+p\to \pi^+K^+n$ reaction with some kinematics suited to the production of the $\Theta^+$ resonance recently observed and show that the measurement of cross sections and polarization observables can shed light on the…
The $\eta \pi^{-}$ system has been studied in the reaction $\pi^{-} p \to \eta \pi^{-} p$ at 18 GeV/c. A large asymmetry in the angular distribution is observed indicating interference between L-even and L-odd partial waves. The…
We estimate the reaction mechanisms for the photoproduction of the Theta^+(1540) resonance on the nucleon, through K and K^* Regge exchanges. We compare the size of the cross sections for the gamma n -> K^- Theta^+ and gamma p -> K^0 bar…
We study the meson-baryon interaction with $J^P=1/2^-$ using the hidden-gauge Lagrangians and mixing pseudoscalar meson-baryon with the vector meson-baryon states in a coupled channels scheme with $\pi N$, $\eta N$, $K\Lambda$, $K\Sigma$,…
We study the coupling of the Lambda(1520)= Lambda* resonance to the \bar K* vector meson and nucleon. This coupling is not directly measured from the resonance decay, but is expected to be important in hyperon production reactions, in…
The photoproduction processes of the exotic $\Theta^+(1540)$ baryon and the $\bar{K}^*$ meson from the nucleon targets, i.e., $\gamma n \to K^{*-} \Theta^+$ and $\gamma p \to \bar{K}^{*0} \Theta^+$, are investigated in a hadronic model. We…
The deuteron spectrum in n+p -> 2 H(pi pi) at k_n = 1.88 GeV/c and theta_d = 0^o is explained by considering a Delta Delta excitation as the dominant reaction mechanism for the 2 pi production. We present a new theoretical approach based on…
We study the photoproduction of the exotic pentaquark Theta^+ baryon with the vector kaon, assuming that the quantum numbers of the Theta^+ to be J^P=3/2^(+-) and J^P=1/2^+. Scalar meson kappa(800)-exchange is also taken into account. In…
We emphasize the importance of identifying non-exotic SU(3) partners of the Theta^+ pentaquark, and indicate possible ways how to do it. We also use the soliton picture of baryons to relate Reggeon couplings of various baryons. These…
We discuss a coupled channel analysis of the $\eta\pi$ and $\eta'\pi$ systems produced in $\pi^-p$ interactions at 18 GeV/$c$. We show that known $Q\bar Q$ resonances, together with residual soft meson-meson rescattering, saturate the…
If the narrow exotic baryon resonances $\Theta^+(1540)$ and $\Xi_{{3/2}(1862)$ are members of the $J^P = {1/2}1/2^+$ antidecuplet with $N^*(1710)$, the octet-antidecuplet mixing is required not only by the mass spectrum but also by the…
Baryon resonance state with strangeness $S = +1$ observed in systems $p K^0$ and $n K^+$ is interpreted as a result of the decay $N^{*+} \to p \eta$ of the well-known resonance $N^*(1535)$ (with spin-parity $j^P = {1/2}^-$ and mass $m…
