Page 46: The meson landscape Scalars and Glue in Strong QCD New states beyond Weird baryons: pentaquark problems Frank Close ICHEP04 “Diquarks,Tetraquarks, Pentaquarks.

Several experimental limits in hadron production

Some not restrictive yet e.g. psi(3095) to Theta Thetabar (=3080) versus LambdaLambdabar (1/100)or can be “explained away” e.g. psiprime sees some channels reduced and this is another one; big price to produce 10 q and q* etc.

My opinion (this week)Limits in high statistics look impressive.Onus is on supporters to explain them away or find a loophole

CONCLUSION

Have Weird Multiquark Demons been found?

Is there a 1 MeV wide, S=+1 baryon at 1540 MeV?

If NO this is testament to the ingenuity of theorists whosemodels can explain it even if it doesn’t exist.

Lattice QCD is almost unique in not having

definitively disproved that such a state does not exist.

Reminiscent of Weinstein and Isgur’s KKbar molecules,bound by level repulsion of the KKbar continuum against higher mass qqbar 0+ scalars at ca. 1.3 GeV.
