Exotic baryon states in topological soliton models

Abstract
The novel observation of an exotic strangeness S=+1 baryon state at 1.54 GeV is to trigger an intensified search for this and other baryons with exotic quantum numbers. This state was predicted long ago in topological soliton models. We use this approach together with the new datum in order to investigate its implications for the baryon spectrum. In particular, we estimate the positions of other pentaquark and septuquark states with exotic and with nonexotic quantum numbers.
