Structure and reactions of pentaquark baryons | | Atsushi Hosaka

14 Jun 2005 | | Subject: | hep-ph | | Abstract: | We review the current status of the exotic pentaquark baryons. After a brief look at experiments of both positive and negative results, we discuss theoretical methods to study the structure and reactions for the pentaquarks. First we introduce the quark model and the chiral soliton model, where we discuss the relation of mass spectrum and parity with some emphasis on the role of chiral symmetry. It is always useful to picture the structure of the pentaquarks in terms of quarks. As for other methods, we discuss a model independent method, and briefly mention the results from the lattice and QCD sum rule. Decay properties are then studied in some detail, which is one of the important properties of Theta+. We investigate the relation between the decay width and the quark structure having certain spin-parity quantum numbers. Through these analyses, we consider as plausible quantum numbers of Theta+, JP = 3/2-. In the last part of this note, we discuss production reactions of Theta+ which provide links between the theoretical models and experimental information. We discuss photoproductions and hadron-induced reactions which are useful to explore the nature of Theta+ | | Source: | arXiv, hep-ph/0506138 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
