Title: A study of pentaquarks on the lattice with overlap fermions

Journal Article · · Physical Review D

We present a quenched lattice QCD calculation of spin-1/2 five-quark states with uudd{bar s} quark content for both positive and negative parities. We do not observe any bound pentaquark state in these channels for either I = 0 or I = 1. The states we found are consistent with KN scattering states which are checked to exhibit the expected volume dependence of the spectral weight. The results are based on overlap-fermion propagators on two lattices, 12{sup 3} x 28 and 16{sup 3} x 28, with the same lattice spacing of 0.2 fm, and pion mass as low as {approx} 180 MeV.
