Are there non-strange low-lying penta-quarks and can we understand their width
R. W. Gothe, S. Nussinov
We argue that the lightest isospin 1/2 partners of the Z^+(1530) s(bar)uudd penta-quark predicted by Diakonov, Petrov and Polyakov are not the N(1710) mixed anti-decuplet states, b…
New near-threshold mesons
Thomas D. Cohen, Boris A. Gelman, Shmuel Nussinov
We show that under a number of rather plausible assumptions QCD spectrum may contain a number of mesons which have not been predicted or observed. Such states will have the quantum…
The Narrow Theta(1543)--A QCD Dilemma: Tube or Not Tube?
Aharon Casher, Shmuel Nussinov
We argue that a width of less than MeV of the new Theta resonance is inconsistent with the observed ratio of resonance and background events in the various photon initiated experim…
Large Extra Dimensions and Decaying KK Recurrences
R. N. Mohapatra, S. Nussinov, A. Perez-Lorenzana
We suggest the possibility that in ADD type brane-world scenarios, the higher KK excitations of the graviton may decay to lower ones owing to a breakdown of the conservation of ext…
Some Comments on the Putative (1543) Exotic State
S. Nussinov
We point out that existing scattering data available in the PDG (Particle Data Group compilation) suggest some fluctuations in those momentum bins where the (Fermi motion br…
QCD Inequalities and the
S. Nussinov
We discuss the new state discovered by BaBar and demonstrate using QCD inequalities that if indeed the and the new () are primarilly m…
