During the years between 1994 and 1997, the emulsion target of the CHORUS experiment
was exposed to the wide band neutrino beam of the CERN SPS of 27 GeV average
energy collecting about 106 neutrino interactions. A measurement of induced charm
production and search for anticharmed pentaquark (0
c ) have been performed by using
the presence of a 6% component in the beam. By requiring a positive muon charge
as determined by the CHORUS muon spectrometer, 46 -induced charm events were
observed with an estimated background of 5:20:4 events. At an average antineutrino
energy of 18 GeV in the neutrino beam, the charm production rate induced by is
