  3. List of baryons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_baryons

    These lists detail all known and predicted baryons in total angular momentum J = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ and J = ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ configurations with positive parity. [5]Baryons composed of one type of quark (uuu, ddd, ...) can exist in J = ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ configuration, but J = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ is forbidden by the Pauli exclusion principle.

  4. Quark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark

    A quark (/ k w ɔːr k, k w ɑːr k /) is a type of elementary particle and a fundamental constituent of matter.Quarks combine to form composite particles called hadrons, the most stable of which are protons and neutrons, the components of atomic nuclei. [1]

    This then combines with the charm quark to give a spin 1/2 particle. In the Σ c, the two light quarks combine to give a spin 1 diquark, which then combines with the charm quark to give either a spin 1/2 particle, or a spin 3/2 particle (normally known as a Σ ∗ c). It is the rules of quantum mechanics that make it possible for a Λ

    Mullite or porcelainite [6] is a rare silicate mineral formed during contact metamorphism of clay minerals.It can form two stoichiometric forms: 3Al 2 O 3 2SiO 2 or 2Al 2 O 3 SiO 2. ...

    is larger than the quark model can naturally explain. This "η – η′ puzzle" can be resolved [3] [4] [5] by the 't Hooft instanton mechanism, [6] whose ⁠ 1 / N ⁠ realization is also known as the Witten–Veneziano mechanism. [7] [8] Specifically, in QCD, the higher mass of the η′

  8. Pentaquark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentaquark

    As quarks have a baryon number of ⁠+ + 1 / 3 ⁠, and antiquarks of ⁠− + 1 / 3 ⁠, the pentaquark would have a total baryon number of 1, and thus would be a baryon. Further, because it has five quarks instead of the usual three found in regular baryons (a.k.a. "triquarks"), it is classified as an exotic baryon.

  9. Generation (particle physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_(particle_physics)

    The lower bound for a fourth generation of quark (b′, t′) masses is currently at 1.4 TeV from experiments at the LHC. [10] The lower bound for a fourth generation neutrino (ν' τ) mass is currently at about 60 GeV (millions of times larger than the upper bound for the other 3 neutrino masses). [11]
