We review recent developments in differential topology with special concern for their possible significance to physical theories, especially general relativity. In particular we are concerned here with the discovery of the existence of…
We examine the properties of both forms of strange matter, small lumps of strange quark matter (strangelets) and of strange hadronic matter (Metastable Exotic Multihypernuclear Objects: MEMOs) and their relevance for present and future…
Hadron spectroscopy represented in the past a major tool for understanding the fundamental symmetries of strong forces. More recently, the interest on this topic has been revitalized by the discovery of new quarkonium-like resonances, that…
In this talk I look into three different topics, addressing first the possibility that the $\Theta^+$ is a bound state of $K \pi N$, exploiting the results of this study to find out the contribution of two meson and one baryon components in…
The newly reported exotic signal $Z_c(4100)$ by the LHCb Collaboration in the invariant mass spectrum of $\eta_c\pi^-$ in $B^0\to \eta_c K^+ \pi^-$ has been a new experimental evidence for an exotic meson containing four constituent quarks.…
After a quick tour through the present status of the Standard Model, an attempt is made to set up a framework to discuss some presently available exotica, including $R_b$ and the CDF $ee\gamma\gamma+E_T\hskip-13pt/\ $ ``event."…
Given the existing empirical information about the exotic Theta+ baryon, we analyze possible properties of its SU(3)F-partners, paying special attention to the nonstrange member of the antidecuplet N*. The modified piN partial-wave analysis…
The present lectures contain an introduction to possible new physics beyond the Standard Model. Having in mind first of all accelerator experiments of the nearest future we concentrate on supersymmetry, a new symmetry that relates bosons…
We present a short general overview of the main features of exotic models of neutron stars, focusing on the structural and dynamical predictions derived from them. In particular, we discuss the presence of ``normal'' quark matter and…
We compute the partition functions of D(-1)D7 systems describing the multi-instanton dynamics of SO(N) gauge theories in eight dimensions. This is the simplest instance of the so called exotic instantons. In analogy with the Seiberg-Witten…
An exotic meson, the $\pi_1(1400)$ with $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$, has been seen to decay into a p-wave $\eta\pi$ system. If this decay conserves flavor SU(3), then it can be shown that this exotic meson must be a four-quark state ($q\bar q+q\bar q$)…
The meson $X(3872)$ and several related states appear to be, at least in part, hadronic molecules in which a heavy flavored meson (such as $D^0$) is bound to another heavy meson (such as $\bar D^{*0}$). Although not the only effect…
A new "Hidden Colour Hypothesis" within the framework of QCD, as an extension of and in keeping with the spirit of the "Colour Singlet Hypothesis" is hereby proposed As such it should play a role in a consistent description of exotic…
The mass spectroscopy of exotic meson states is scrutinized in the AdS/QCD paradigm. The differential configurational entropy is then used to study, derive, and analyze the mass spectrum of excited exotic vector meson resonances, whose…
In this letter, we describe a novel scheme for searching for physics beyond the Standard Model. The idea is based on correlation of time-synchronized readouts of distant ($\gtrsim$100~km) optical magnetometers. Such an approach limits…
The ground-state (lightest) hybrid nonet with exotic quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ and the nonet of their chiral partners with $J^{PC}=1^{+-}$ build a homochiral multiplet involving left- and right-handed currents, which under chiral…
Exotic mesons with hidden strange ($s\bar s$) and heavy quark pairs ($Q\bar Q$), where $Q=c,b$, are considered as diquark-antidiquark systems, $(Qs)(\bar Q\bar s)$. Taking into account that these states can recombinate into two-meson ones,…
The known extrasolar planets exhibit many interesting and surprising features--extremely short-period orbits, high-eccentricity orbits, mean-motion and secular resonances, etc.--and have dramatically expanded our appreciation of the…
The coupling of non-relativistic anyons (called exotic particles) to an electromagnetic field is considered. Anomalous coupling is introduced by adding a spin-orbit term to the Lagrangian. Alternatively, one has two Hamiltonian structures,…
This work illustrates how several new pricing formulas for exotic options can be derived within a Levy framework by employing a unique pricing expression. Many existing pricing formulas of the traditional Gaussian model are obtained as a…
