Heavy quark spectroscopy and prediction of bottom baryon masses
arXiv:0806.4951 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysbps.2009.01.004
Abstract
I discuss several recent highly accurate theoretical predictions for masses of baryons containing the b quark, as well as an effective supersymmetry between heavy quark baryons and mesons. I also suggest some possibilities for observing exotic hadrons containing heavy quarks.
