We propose a collective stringlike model of pentaquarks with the geometry of an equilateral tetrahedron in which the four quarks are located at the four corners and the antiquark in its center. The nonplanar equilibrium configuration is a…
Using the picture of the flux tube model, we propose that the $\Theta_5$ pentaquark as the first candidate of the three-dimensional non-planar hadron with the extremely stable diamond structure. The up and down quarks lie at the corners of…
QCD instantons are known to produce deeply bound diquarks which may be used as building blocks in the formation of multiquark states, in particular pentaquarks and dibaryons. We suggest a simple model in which the lowest scalar diquark (and…
The charmless nonleptonic $B\to \eta K$ decay is an useful probe to test the strong interaction dynamics part of the Standard Model. Within the QCD factorization framework, we analyse this particular decay by using the most recent data of…

Recently several experiments have reported evidences for pentaquark $\Theta^+$. H1 experiment at HERA-B has also reported evidence for $\Theta_c$. $\Theta^+$ is interpreted as a bound state of an $\bar s$ with other four light quarks $udud$…
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 scalar tetraquarks $T_{b}$ and $T_{c}$ with asymmetric contents $bb \overline{b}\overline{c}$ and $cc \overline{c}\overline{b}$ are explored using the QCD sum rule method. These states are modeled as the diquark-antidiquarks composed of…

We investigate medium modifications of the pentaquark $\Theta^+$ in dense medium, taking into account different parities of the exotic $\Theta^+$ baryon. We find that the chemical potential of the $\Theta^+$ is shifted in a…
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…
Five-quark $qqqq\bar q$ components in the $\Delta(1232)$ are shown to contribute significantly to $\Delta(1232)\to N\pi$ decay through quark-antiquark annihilation transitions. These involve the overlap between the $qqq$ and $qqqq\bar q$…
In this article, we study the masses and pole residues of the pseudoscalar-diquark-pseudoscalar-antidiquark type and vector-diquark-vector-antidiquark type scalar hidden-charm $cu\bar{c}\bar{d}$ ($cu\bar{c}\bar{s}$) tetraquark states with…
To understand the nature of the $X(5568)$, recently observed in the mass spectrum of the $B_{s}^0\pi^\pm$ system by the D0 Collaboration, we have investigated, in a previous work, a scalar tetraquark (diquak-antidiquark) structure for it,…
