To see the exotic Theta^+ baryon from interference
Moskov Amarian, Dmitri Diakonov, Maxim V. Polyakov
Since all couplings of the exotic baryon to normal hadrons seem to be small it is hard to reveal it in standard resonance searching. We suggest to look for the producti…
From pions to pentaquarks
Dmitri Diakonov
I overview the physical picture of QCD at low energies that has led to the prediction of a narrow exotic baryon Theta^+ which cannot be made of three quarks. The very narrow width…
Comment on the Theta+ width and mass
Dmitri Diakonov, Victor Petrov, Maxim Polyakov
We discuss the relatively low mass and narrow width prediction for the exotic baryon Theta+, and comment on recent statements by R.L. Jaffe on the subject. We reaffirm that a narro…
A heretical view on linear Regge trajectories
Dmitri Diakonov, Victor Petrov
We discuss a possibility that linear Regge trajectories originate not from gluonic strings connecting quarks, as it is usually assumed, but from pion excitations of light hadrons.…
Chiral Symmetry Breaking and Color Superconductivity in the Instanton Picture
Gregory W. Carter, Dmitri Diakonov
The instanton approach to spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking is reviewed, with emphasis on the connection to chiral random matrix theory. We extend the approach to discuss the fi…
Chiral Quark-Soliton Model
Dmitri Diakonov
The Chiral Quark-Soliton Model of nucleons is based on two ideas: 1) the major role of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in hadron physics and 2) the relevance of the large numb…
