Width of the J^P=1/2^+ pentaquark in the quark-diquark model
  We analyse the width of the $\theta(\frac12^+)$ pentaquark assuming that it is a bound state of two extended spin-zero $ud$-diquarks and the $\bar s$ antiquark (the Jaffe-Wilczek scenario). The width obtained when the size parameters of the pentaquark wave function are taken to be close to the parameters of the nucleon is found to be $\simeq 150$ MeV, i.e. it has a normal value for a $P$-wave hadron decay with the corresponding energy release.However, we found a strong dynamical suppression of the decay width if the pentaquark has an asymmetric "peanut" structure with the strange antiquark in the center and the two diquarks rotating around. In this case a decay width of $\simeq$ 1 MeV is a natural possibility.
