Abstract
The theoretical motivation to look for S=+1 resonances is introduced and searches for such states in the literature are reviewed. The motivation for the recent pentaquark searches is discussed and the experimental details are described for several positive results of the S=+1 resonance with a mass of approximately 1.54 GeV, now called the Θ+. Finally, some new theoretical proposals to explain the recent experimental results are briefly mentioned, followed by a short discussion of future experimental prospects to learn more about pentaquark states.Keywords
