QCD Sum Rules Method for calculations in the non - perturbative regime of QCD Identities between correlation functions written with hadron and quark – gluon degrees of freedom Two - point function: hadron masses Three - point function: form factors and decay width Results are functions of the quark masses and vacuum expectation values of QCD operators : condensates

Current contains contribution from the pole (particle) and from the continuum (resonances) S0 =continuum threshold parameter Im = =spectral density Combination of 1 and 2 Insert in the correlation function
Numerical inputs: (standard) Parameters: s0 ms t What is good sum rule? Borel stability Good OPE convergence Dominance of the pole contribution Reasonable value of S0
M ms=0.1 GeV t=1 s0=2.3 GeV m=1.87 ± 0.22 GeV
OPE perturbative dimension 4 dimension 6
continuum pole
decay width Extremely narrow width: < 10 MeV or even < 1 MeV Mass excess of 100 MeV (no problem with phase space) Possible reasons for a narrow width: Spatial configuration Color configuration Non-trivial string rearrangement Destructive interference between almost degenerate states Chiral symmetry . . .

Conclusions We have used QCDSR to study pentaquark properties QCDSR for pentaquarks are not as satisfying as for other hadrons It is possible to obtain reasonable values for the and masses However: the continuum contribution is large ! the OPE has irregular behavior ! The narrow width is more difficult to understand : With all diagrams we can not obtain a narrow width! With only the color connected diagrams we obtain a smaller width Negative parity strongly disfavored
