Narrow Pentaquark States in a Quark Model with Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics

The exotic baryon $\Theta^+(uudd\bar{s})$ is studied with microscopic calculations in a quark model by using a method of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics(AMD). We predict narrow states, $J^\pi=1/2^+(I=0)$, $J^\pi=3/2^+(I=0)$, and $J^\pi=3/2^-(I=1)$, which nearly degenerate in a low-energy region of the $uudd\bar{s}$ system. We discuss $NK$ decay widths and estimate them to be $\Gamma< 7$ for the $J^\pi=\{1/2^+,3/2^+\}$, and $\Gamma<1$ MeV for the $J^\pi=3/2^-$ state.Comment: Talk given at International Workshop on PENTAQUARK04, Spring-8, Hyogo, Japan, 20-23 Jul 200

Magnetic moment of the pentaquark Θ+(1540)\Theta^+(1540) with light-cone QCD sum rules

In this article, we study the magnetic moment of the pentaquark state $\Theta^+(1540)$ as diquark-diquark-antiquark ($[ud][ud]\bar{s}$) state in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach. The numerical results indicate the magnetic moment of the pentaquark state $\Theta^+(1540)$ is about $\mu_{\Theta^+}=-(0.49\pm 0.06)\mu_N$.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figure.
