We identify essential differences between the pentaquark and chiral soliton models of \10bar$_5$ and {\bf 8}$_5$ pentaquarks and conventional {\bf 8}$_3$ states, which are experimentally measurable. We show how the decays of $\Xi_5$ states…
The strong coupling constants of newly observed $\Omega_c^0$ baryons with spin $J = \frac{1}{2}$ and $J = \frac{3}{2}$ decaying into $\Xi_c^{+} K^{-}$ are estimated within light cone QCD sum rules. The calculations are performed within two…

We study determination of the parity of the pentaquark baryons in two different processes. First, we investigate the Theta^+ production via the vec{p} vec{p} -> Sigma^+ Theta^+ reaction process which was proposed to determine unambiguously…
The fully heavy axial-vector diquark-antidiquark structures $bb\overline{c} \overline{c}$ are explored by means of the QCD sum rule method. They are modeled as four-quark mesons $T_{\mathrm{1}}$ and $T_{\mathrm{2}}$ composed of…
We investigate the effect of chiral phase transition on the pentaquark $\Theta^+$ mass and width at one-loop level of $N\Theta^+K$ coupling at finite temperature and density. The behavior of the mass, especially the width in hadronic medium…
Investigation of the resonances $X(4140)$ and $X(4274)$, which were recently confirmed by the LHCb Collaboration [1], is carried out by treating them as the color triplet and sextet $[cs][\bar{c}\bar {s}]$ diquark-antidiquark states with…
Assuming the two diquark structure for the pentaquark state as advocated in the Jaffe-Wilczek model, there exist exotic parity-even anti-sextet and parity-odd triplet heavy pentaquark baryons. The theoretical estimate of charmed and bottom…

The $\bar{B}_{q}^{\ast}$ ${\to}$ $DP$, $DV$ weak decays are studied with the perturbative QCD approach, where $q$ $=$ $u$, $d$ and $s$; $P$ and $V$ denote the ground $SU(3)$ pseudoscalar and vector meson nonet. It is found that the…
We propose a new approach in QCD sum rules applied for exotic hadrons with a number of quarks, exemplifying the pentaquark Theta^{+} (I=0,J=1/2) in the Borel sum rule. Our approach enables reliable extraction of the pentaquark properties…
