  24. Reminder on Pentaquarks Θ(1540)+ |uudds> Θ(1540)+ predicted in Chiral Soliton Model Observed in γn→Θ+K-→ (K+n)K- and K+n→Θ+→pKS M ~ 1540 MeV/c2 Γ < 1 MeV Low Γ and M are difficult to explain Initial evidence: Also many null results, not easily comparable. Repeat measurements with high statistics + LEPS – CLAS – Belle + SVD-2

  25. Introduction to Pentaquarks Θ(1540)+ |uudds> Θ(1540)+ predicted in Chiral Soliton Model Observed in γn→Θ+K-→ (K+n)K- and K+n→Θ+→pKS M ~ 1540 MeV/c2 Γ < 1 MeV Low Γ and M are difficult to explain Initial evidence: Also many null results, not easily comparable. Repeat measurements with high statistics + LEPS – CLAS – Belle + SVD-2 PDG2006 NEW?

  26. New DIANA result PAN70,35 (2007) K+ Xe→ p KS Xe’ Statistics x1.6Θ(1540)+ signal confirmed, significance increased from 4.4 to 5.3σ M(pKS) NEW estimationof Θ(1540)+ width 445<pK+<525MeV my estimate  Contradiction with Belle persists (2.2σ, 2.4%) DIANA finds no Θ+ signal for pK+>525MeV Inelastic Θ(1540)+production will decrease Belle upper limit M(pKS) 17 events expected MC verified on tagged kaon data at Belle pK+>525MeV -3 found  2.9σ fluctuation, decreases significance of DIANA signal Evidence for Θ(1540)+from DIANA is weak.

  27. New NOMAD result EPJC49,499 (2007) NOMAD Preliminary Θ+ N → Θ+X Θ(1540)+ signal is not confirmed based on subsaple Upper Limit on Θ+production rate per  interactionvs. xF NOMAD result can be compared with ITEP- result  Θ+production rate ~10-3 Θ+  For large part of xFrange NOMAD and ITEP- results are in conflict.

  28. New COSY-TOF results PLB649,252 (2007) pp → pK0Σ+ Statistics x10, improved detection capability  Θ(1540)+ signal not confirmed NEW Previous Comparison Θ+ Background shape from new data. In previous analysis background was underestimated significance lower than claimed. Evidence for Θ(1540)+from COSY-TOF is negated.

  29. New H1 result PLB639,202 (2006) ep → pKSX No Θ+ signal H1 result can be compared with ZEUSresult  M(pKS) ZEUS ZEUS (preliminary) Q2>20GeV2, 0.04<y<0.95 H1 Extrapolated to ZEUS y-region. H1 and ZEUS results are in conflict.

  30. SVD-2 result: the most significant Θ+ signal hep-ex/0509033 pA → KSpX Statistics x8Θ(1540)+ signal confirmed, significance increased from 5.5 to ~8σ M(pKS) M(pKS) KS decays inside / outside Vertex Detector M = 1522 MeV s = 12 MeV Nevnt = 205 M = 1523 MeV s = 12 MeV Nevnt = 165 Θ(1540)+ is produced with small xF For central production difference in energy should not be important. SVD-2 result strongly contradicts HERA-B, CDF.

  31. Other new results on pentaquarks 2.5σ signal at M=1530MeV  No significant Θ+signals. No new positive results for doubly strange pentaquark Φ(1860) or charmed pentaquark Θc(3100)0. “No stars” in PDG2006  not discussed here.

  32. Summary on Θ(1540)+ ~5σ New data are taken (2007).Statistics x3. unpublished ~5σ 5.4σ Contradiction with Belle persists. In conflict with NOMAD. Not accessible in new data (energy too low). unpublished Contradicts BaBar eBe→pKSX(statistics x100 larger). In conflict with H1. ~8σ Contradicts HERA-B, CDF. Not a single convincing evidence for Θ(1540)+ For  experiment with positive result  experiment with similar conditions but null result. Evidence for Θ(1540)+pentaquark is weak

  33. Conclusions • Impressive progress in heavy flavor baryons • # charmed baryons 12 → 18 • # beauty baryons 1 → 4 • Λc(2880)+, Ωc*, Σb, Σb*, Ξb provide important constraints for theory. To use other new states: Λc(2940), Σc(2800), Ξc(2980), Ξc(3055), Ξc(3080),we need symbiosis between theory and experiment. • Experiments are consistent and experimental results are robust. over last 2 years • Experimental evidence for pentaquarks is weak • More null results since PDG2006: COSY-TOF, H1, NOMAD, ... • Very low Θ+width: DIANA Γ = (0.36 ± 0.11) MeV • New results are expected fromLEPS, HERA-II. New challenges for theory?
