EXOTIC HADRONS OF MINIMAL PENTAQUARK (qqqqq̄) STATES
نویسنده
چکیده
It is shown that the exotic non-qqq hadrons of pentaquark qqqqq̄ states can be clearly distinguished from the conventional qqq-baryon resonances or their hybrids if the flavor of q̄ is different from any of the other four quarks. We suggest the physical process p(e, eK)Z(uuuds̄), which can be investigated at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab), as an ideal process to search for the existence or non-existence of the exotic hadron of minimal pentaquark state Z(uuuds̄). The search for the existence of Z(uudds̄) is also discussed in the paper.

Pentaquarks: Status and Perspectives for Lattice Calculations
The quantum chromo-dynamics (QCD) may not preclude the presence of the multi-quark hadrons such as tetraquark (qqq̄q̄), pentaquark (qqqqq̄), dibaryon (qqqqqq) and so on, because of the color confinement. Especially, we are let to be interested in exotic multi-quark hadrons, which should have exotic quantum numbers. Now, let us address ourself to the pentaquark state. Consider the SU(3) flavor case...
متن کاملReviewing the Evidence for Pentaquarks
Several experimental groups have reported evidence for baryons with flavor exotic quantum numbers that cannot be explained as qqq bound states but require a minimum of five quarks – qqqqq̄. These pentaquark states include the θ, the Ξ−− and the θc. The reported widths of these new states are consistent with experimental resolution and may be as narrow as a few MeV/c or less. Prior to 2003, exper...
متن کاملExotic hadrons from dynamical clustering of quarks in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions
Results from a model study on the formation of exotic quark clusters at the hadronization stage of a heavy ion collision are presented. The dynamical quark molecular dynamics (qMD) model which is used is sketched, and results for exotica made of up to six (anti-)quarks are shown. The second part focuses on pentaquarks. The rapidity distribution are shown, and the distribution of strangeness is ...
متن کاملExotic states of matter in heavy meson decays 1
The decays of mesons containing heavy quarks provide carefully controlled environments for production of hadronic states with specific quantum numbers. Copious samples of such mesons accumulated at the BaBar, Belle, and CLEO detectors permit searches for interesting forms of matter, including mesons beyond the usual quark-antiquark and baryons beyond the usual three-quark configurations. Such h...
متن کاملNodal Structure Analysis
The strangeness s = +1 pentaquark states as qqqqq̄ clusters are investigated in this letter. Starting from the inherent geometric symmetry, we analyzed the inherent nodal structure of the system. As the nodeless states, the low-lying states are picked out. Then the S-wave state (J , T ) = (12 − , 0) and P-wave state (J , T ) = (12 + , 0) may be the candidates of low-lying pentaquark states. By c...
