In the Relativistic Mean Field Approximation three quarks in baryons from the lowest octet and the decuplet are bound by the self-consistent chiral field, and there are additional quark-antiquark pairs whose wave function also follows from…
We have used the light-cone formulation of Chiral-Quark Soliton Model to estimate the width of the lightest pentaquark Theta+. We have found that the effect of nonzero momentum transfer is important and reduces drastically the width to…
We calculate the widths of the various pentaquarks in a relativistic model in which the pentaquark is considered to be composed of a scalar diquark and a spin 1/2 triquark. We consider both positive and negative parity for the pentaquark.…
We study the decay of Theta+ in a non-relativistic quark model. The wave function of Theta+ is constructed for the two cases JP = 1/2+- as products of color, spin, flavor and orbital parts respecting total antisymmetrization among the four…

In 1997 Diakonov, Petrov, and Polyakov, calculated the width of the exotic baryon that they called $\Theta^{+}$. The prediction, $\Gamma(\Theta^{+})\lesssim$ 15 MeV, has received considerable attention, especially in light of the narrowness…
We argue that a width of less than MeV of the new Theta resonance is inconsistent with the observed ratio of resonance and background events in the various photon initiated experiments if the latter can be described by K, K*, etc.,…
Using the results of the GRAAL collaboration on the \eta photoproduction from the neutron target, we attempt to extract the partial radiative width of the possible new nucleon resonance N^*(1675). The obtained estimates support this…
The experimental status of the pentaquark searches is briefly reviewed. Recent null results by the CLAS collaboration are commented, and new strong evidence of a very narrow Theta+ resonance by the DIANA collaboration is presented. On the…
We analyse the width of the $\theta(\frac12^+)$ pentaquark assuming that it is a bound state of two extended spin-zero $ud$-diquarks and the $\bar s$ antiquark (the Jaffe-Wilczek scenario). The width obtained when the size parameters of the…
We investigate the impact of the \Theta^+(1540) resonance on differential and integrated cross sections for the reaction K^+d{\to}K^0pp, where experimental information is available at kaon momenta below 640 MeV/c. The calculation utilizes…
The properties of the Theta^{+} and Xi^{--}_{3/2} exotic baryons have been investigated in the framework of diquark- diquark-antiquark system. A model for diquark suggested in an analogy with the quasi-particle in a crystal lattice has been…
The relativistic generalization of Faddeev-Yakubovsky approach is constructed in the form of the dispersion relations. The five-quark amplitudes for the low-lying pentaquarks contain u,d,s-quarks. The poles of these amplitudes determine the…
The recently discovered pentaquark $\Theta^+$ is described within the chiral constituent quark model. Within this picture the flavor-spin interaction between valence quarks inverts the $(1s)^4$ and $(1s)^3(1p)$ levels of the four-quark…
The mass and decay width of the $\Theta^+(1540)$ with isospin 0 are investigated in a constituent quark model comprising $uudd\bar{s}$ quarks. The resonance state for the $\Theta^+$ is identified as a stable solution in correlated basis…
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…
Identifying the Roper N(1440) and N(1710) as the pentaquark octet and anti-decuplet, respectively, we analyze their main decay modes in the diquark picture. The ratio of the partial decay widths is largely consistent with the nearly ideal…
The properties of nuclear matter are discussed with the relativistic mean-field theory (RMF).Then, we use two models in studying the in-medium properties of $\Theta^+$: one is the point-like $\Theta^*$ in the usual RMF and the other is a…
Using data on K^+ collisions on xenon and deuterium we derive values and limits on the width of the reported Theta(1540)^+ exotic baryon resonance. The xenon experiment gives a width of 0.9\pm 0.3 MeV. The other experiments give upper…
We study the manifestation of the $\Delta^{++}-\Delta^-$ component of the deuteron wave function in the exclusive reaction $\bar p d \to \pi^- \pi^- \Delta^{++}$. Due to the large binding energy the internal motion in the $\Delta-\Delta$…
