Prediction of Narrow J^π=1/2^+, 3/2^+, and 3/2^- states of Theta_+ in a Quark model with Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics

The exotic baryon $\Theta^+(uudd\bar{s})$ is studied with microscopic calculations in a quark model by using a method of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. We predict that the lowest even state is $J^\pi=1/2^+(I=0)$ or $J^\pi=3/2^+(I=0)$, and the lowest odd state is $J^\pi=3/2^-(I=1)$. They nearly degenerate in the $uudd\bar{s}$ system. We discuss $K^+n$ decay widths and estimate them to be $\Gamma< 7$ for the $J^\pi=\{1/2^+,3/2^+\}$, and $\Gamma<1$ MeV for the $J^\pi=3/2^-$ state.
