Exotic Exotic HadronsHadrons
Hadrons whose quantum numbers require a
valence quark content beyond qqq or q¯q are termed “exotics”. Hadrons whose spin, parity and charge conjugation are forbidden in the non-relativistic quark model are also often termed “exotics”.
Experimental status : Experimental status : Aufbau principle of QCD differs dramatically from that of atoms and nuclei: to make more atoms add electrons, to make more nuclei, add neutrons and protons.

Story of Story of PentaquarksPentaquarks
The 2006 The 2006 Review of Particle PhysicsReview of Particle Physics : : There has not been a high-statistics confirmation of any of the original
experiments that claimed to see the Θ+; there have been two high-statistics repeats from Jefferson Lab that have clearly shown the original positive claims in those two cases to be wrong; there have been a number of other high-statistics experiments, none of which have found any evidence for the Θ+; and all attempts to confirm the two other claimed pentaquark states have led to negative results. The conclusion that pentaquarks in general, and the Θ+, in particular, do not exist, appears compelling.
The 2008 The 2008 Review of Particle PhysicsReview of Particle Physics : : There are two or three recent experiments that find weak evidence for
signals near the nominal masses, but there is simply no point in tabulating them in view of the overwhelming evidence that the claimed pentaquarks do not exist... The whole story—the discoveries themselves, the tidal wave of papers by theorists and phenomenologists that followed, and the eventual "undiscovery"—is a curious episode in the history of science.
