It is proposed that the neutral, B=2, flavor singlet sexaquark (S) composed of uuddss quarks, has mass m_S <~ 2 GeV. If m_S < 2 (m_p + m_e), it is absolutely stable, while for m_S < m_p+m_e + m_Lambda, its lifetime can be greater than the…
Recent investigations have suggested that the singlet six-quark combination $uuddss$ may be a deeply bound state $S$, called Sexaquark. An essentially stable state $S$ is a potentially excellent Dark Matter candidate. We present the first…
A color-flavor-spin singlet state of six quarks $uuddss$ ($S$, or sexaquark) has been argued to be a potentially undiscovered deeply bound, long-lived hadron. Theoretical calculations of the $S$ mass have been made in the literature, widely…
We report on the possibility that the Dark Matter particle is a stable, neutral, as-yet-undiscovered hadron in the standard model. The existence of a compact color-flavor-spin singlet sexaquark (S, uuddss) with mass ~2m_p, is compatible…
Following the idea that a stable sexaquark state with quark content (uuddss) would have gone unnoticed by experiment so far and that such a particle would be a good dark matter candidate, we investigate the possible role of a stable…
Recent investigations have suggested that the six-quark combination uuddss could be a deeply bound state (S) that has eluded detection so far, and a potential dark matter candidate. We report the first search for a stable, doubly strange…
It is conventionally argued that Dark Matter (DM) has a non-baryonic nature, but if we assume that DM was frozen out before primordial nucleosynthesis and could not significantly impact primordial abundances this argument may be evaded.…
If the Theta^+(1540) is interpreted as a bound state of a $\bar s$ quark and two (ud) diquarks in a relative P-wave, then it is very likely that there exist pentaquark states with a heavy antiquark, $\bar b$ or $\bar c$, and two ``light''…
A wide range of dark matter candidates have been proposed and are actively being searched for in a large number of experiments, both at high (TeV) and low (sub meV) energies. One dark matter candidate, a deeply bound $uuddss$ sexaquark,…
We investigate the hypothesis that sexaquarks, hypothetical stable six-quark states, could be a significant component of the dark matter. We expand on previous studies of sexaquark cosmology, accounting for the possibility that some…
Based on the color-spin interaction in diquarks, we argue why some multiquark configurations could be stable against strong decay when heavy quarks are included. After showing the stability of previously discussed states we identify new…
Context. The presence of dark matter in neutron stars is of growing interest due to its potential impact on the structure and observable properties of these objects. Among the various candidates, the hypothetical sexaquark has emerged as a…
In the light of the recent discovery of the $\Xi^{++}_{cc}$ by LHCb collaboration, we study the stable doubly heavy tetraquarks. These states are compact exotic hadrons which can be approximated as the diquark-anti-diquark correlations. In…
We have systematically investigated the mass spectrum and rearrangement decay properties of the exotic tetraquark states with four different flavors using a color-magnetic interaction model. Their masses are estimated by assuming that the…
We present results of a search for a neutral, six-quark, dibaryon state called the \h, a state predicted to exist in several theoretical models. Observation of such a state would signal the discovery of a new form of hadronic matter.…
We study the stability of small strangelets by employing a simple model of strange matter as a gas of non-interacting fermions confined in a bag. We solve the Dirac equation and populate the energy levels of the bag one quark at a time. Our…
Stable neutrino and U quark of 4th generation are excluded neither by experimental data, nor by astrophysical constraints. Moreover, excess of stable $\bar U$ quarks in the Universe can lead to an exciting composite nuclear-interacting form…
3-flavor quark matter (strange quark matter; SQM) can be stable or metastable for a wide range of strong interaction parameters. If so, SQM can play an important role in cosmology, neutron stars, cosmic ray physics, and relativistic…
Why does dark matter (DM) live longer than the age of the Universe? Here we study a novel sub-eV scalar DM candidate whose stability is due to the Pauli exclusion of its fermionic decay products. We analyze the stability of the DM…
This work investigates the possibility of a long-lived stop squark in supersymmetric models with the neutralino as the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP). We study the implications of meta-stable stops on the sparticle mass spectra and…
