Gell-Mann–Okubo Mass Formula for SU (4) Meson Hexadecuplet
نویسنده
چکیده
Using a linear mass spectrum of an SU(4) meson hexadecuplet, we derive the Gell-Mann–Okubo mass formula for the charmed mesons, in good agreement with experiment. Possible generalization of this method to a higher symmetry group is briefly discussed. Bitnet: [email protected] Bitnet: [email protected].

We show that the application of Regge phenomenology to SU(4) meson multiplets leads to a new Gell-Mann–Okubo mass-mixing angle formula in the SU(3) sector, 3m 2 1 + cos 2 θ m 2 0 + sin 2 θ m 2 0 ′ + √ 2 sin 2θ m 2 0 − m 2 0 ′ = 4m 2 1/2 , where m 1 , m 1/2 , m 0 , m 0 ′ are the masses of the isovector, isodoublet, isoscalar mostly octet and isoscalar mostly singlet states, respectively, and θ i...
متن کاملMass Spectrum of a Meson Nonet is Linear
It is argued that the mass spectrum of a meson nonet is linear, consistent with the standard Gell-Mann–Okubo mass formula and leading to an extra Gell-Mann–Okubo mass relation for the masses of the isoscalar states. This relation is shown to hold with an accuracy of up to ∼3% for all well-established nonets. It also suggests a new qq̄ assignment for the scalar meson nonet. Bitnet: [email protected]...
متن کاملSchwinger’s Nonet Mass Formula Revisited
We prove the validity of Schwinger’s quartic nonet mass formula for a general nonet structure with the isoscalar singlet mass being shifted from its “ideal” value. We apply this formula to the problem of the correct qq̄ assignment for the scalar meson nonet. The results favor scalar isoscalar singlet and isoscalar octet masses in the vicinity of 1 GeV and 1.45 GeV, respectively. We explain the f...
متن کاملNew Mass Relation for Meson 25-plet
By assuming the existence of (quasi)-linear Regge trajectories for 25-plet mesons in the low energy region, we derive a new, 14th power, meson mass relation. This relation may be reduced to a quadratic Gell-Mann–Okubo type formula by fitting the values of the Regge slopes of these (quasi)-linear trajectories. Such a formula holds with an accuracy of ∼ 2% for vector mesons, and E-mail: BURAKOV@P...
متن کاملOn the Miracle of the Coleman-glashow and Other Baryon Mass Formulas
Due to a new measurement of the Ξ 0 mass, the Coleman-Glashow formula for the baryon octet e.m. masses (derived using unbroken flavor SU 3) is satisfied to an extraordinary level of precision. The same unexpected precision exists for the Gell Mann-Okubo formula and for its octet-decuplet extension (G. Morpurgo, Phys. Rev. Lett. 68 (1992) 139). We show that the old question " why do they work so...
