Exotic baryon states in topological soliton models
نویسنده
چکیده
The novel observation of an exotic strangeness S = +1 baryon state at 1.54 GeV will trigger an intensified search for this and other baryons with exotic quantum numbers. This state was predicted long ago in topological soliton models. We use this approach together with the new datum in order to investigate its implications for the baryon spectrum. In particular we estimate the positions of other pentaquark and septuquark states with exotic and with non-exotic quantum numbers. PACS: 12.39.Dc

Exotic Hadronic States at Hera
The hadronic states studied in hadron spectroscopy have been successfully explained by quark-antiquark states (mesons) or three quark states (baryons). States whose quantum numbers could be understood in terms of more complex quark structures were up to now not observed. Such exotic states were already proposed on the basis of quark and bag models [1] in the early days of QCD, with the hope tha...
متن کاملPentaquarks and Radially Excited Baryons∗
Although chiral soliton model predictions for the mass of the lightest exotic pentaquark, the Θ with zero isospin and unit strangeness, have been around for some time1, the study of pentaquarks as baryon resonances became popular only recently when experiments2,3 indicated their existence. These experiments were stimulated by a chiral soliton model estimate4 suggesting that such exotic baryons ...

متن کاملChiral-soliton predictions for exotic baryons
We re-analyze the predictions of chiral-soliton models for the masses and decay widths of baryons in the exotic antidecuplet of flavour SU(3). The calculated ranges of the chiral-soliton moment of inertia and the π-nucleon scattering ΣπN term are used together with the observed baryon octet and decuplet mass splittings to estimate 1430MeV < mΘ+ < 1660MeV and 1790 MeV < mΞ−− < 1970MeV. These are...
متن کاملExotic State Searches at the Spring-8: Observation of a Pentaquark State Θ Baryon
A narrow resonance peak was observed at 1.54±0.01 GeV/c as an exotic baryon with strangeness S = +1 in the γ + n → K +K− + n reaction on C. The new state have a width smaller than 0.025 GeV/c and a Gaussian significance of 4.6σ. It can not be interpreted as three quark state and is consistent with the lightest member of an antidecuplet of baryons predicted by the chiral soliton model.
