from Part III - Strong Interaction
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 February 2025
Starting from 2-flavor QCD, isospin symmetry is employed in order to explain the multiplets of light baryons and mesons, from a constituent quark perspective. Next we involve the strange quark and arrive at meson mixing as well as the Gell-Mann–Okubo formula for the baryon multiplet splitting. Regarding QCD from first principles, we comment on lattice simulation results for the hadron masses. At last we discuss the hadron spectrum in a hypothetical world with Nc=5 colors.
