Abstract

In the large N_c limit, one can describe normal heavy baryons Qqq and heavy pentaquarks Qqqqq as bound states of heavy mesons to chiral (anti)solitons. In this picture, the strong and electromagnetic decay parameters of these hadrons can be calculated from those of the constituent heavy mesons and light baryons, while the weak decay form factors can be evaluated analytically.
