Abstract

The experimental evidence for pentaquarks, both old an new, is discussed. Constraints due to K+N scattering data from previous decades is first reviewed, followed by experiments with positive evidence and those with null results. Finally, the problem of the narrow width of the Theta+ pentaquark is discussed, along with theoretical implications.
