" Understanding Baryon Masses in QCD
''
Recently, there has been progress made in understanding
the spectrum of baryon masses. A new mass hierarchy has been discovered
for the ground state baryons. Mass predictions for baryons containing
a single charm or bottom heavy quark also were made.
The recent discoveries of the Ξb-,
Σb and
Σb*
baryons are in excellent agreement with these predictions.
Refreshments will be served in CP 179 at 3:15 PM
