message: Should it be noted here that the Xi-0 Baryon has the longest mean lifetime of all non-Nucleon Baryons? If not, am I wrong about this? Thanks.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.169.1.50 (talk) 20:24, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Xi-0 Lifetime 

message: I added a Xi sub b 0*   (usb) to the baryon list, as it was discovered by CMS collab at CERN, and published results on 2012-04-27 (http://arxiv.org/pdf/1204.5955.pdf). List_of_baryons#jp_.3D_3.E2.81.842.2B_baryons. Could some one also add it here? --91.213.255.7 (talk) 01:49, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

message: There are numerous asterisks in the JP column. What do they signify?   Solo Owl   00:27, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I had the same question about the asterisks on the isospin column.  I don't see that the text explains this, but am guessing it has to do with varying isospin excitations.  Wild guess.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.139.254.117 (talk) 20:45, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

text: The prime indicates that it's the non-Lamba-like octet member. Baryon nomenclature is silly and idiosyncratic. I did my entire master's thesis on this and on designing a better one. See the figures at the end of  for a list.  Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 20:44, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  Hmm, I'm not sure what you mean by "non-Lamba-like octet member". Based on the chart you referenced, it seems to have to do with more than just what quarks it is composed of. Is there a Wikipedia article we could link to that explains this? I also changed the note above the table; hopefully that's correct now? -- Beland (talk) 23:08, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: If you take the uds octet, there are two baryons made of uds quarks. The Σ0 and the Λ0, both made of uds quarks. If you pick instead udb, you can make analogous baryons. Nomenclature rules (established by the PDG in 1986) make their basename Xi, since they are both isospin doublets that aren't made of three u and d quarks, with a b subscript to indicate the s quark has been changed to a b quark. But there are two such udb states, one is the counterpart of the Σ0, which takes a prime (Ξ′), the other the counterpart of the Λ0, which doesn't take the prime (Ξ).

text: FTR, Headbomb has replaced the *s with ()s for uncertain values, and updated the note so there's no longer any confusion. (Thanks!) -- Beland (talk) 01:20, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: FTR, there are no longer any underscores in the article. -- Beland (talk) 01:21, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  underscores or subscripts? 

message: Generally on English Wikipedia, hadrons are grouped into articles about their main symbol. An exception being strange B meson, but that has been very well studied to the point where there's enough material for a separate article from B meson. The Ξcc++ baryon has only been observed in one decay mode in one paper (so far). I think it's far from being noteworthy enough for a separate article. — dukwon (talk) (contribs) 10:00, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Really, these articles should all be split. It's how I organized them way back when for convenience, but it was a mistake I made when I thought these were related particles. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 10:22, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that organisation by main symbol is not ideal, but I don't think there should be separate articles for every individual state. It's getting a bit silly with the exotic mesons (X(3872), Zc(3900), Z(4430), Y(4140)). If they're going to be re-organised, I suggest mimicking the PDG: . — dukwon (talk) (contribs) 12:19, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Mesons in general, are a fucking mess. Even non-exotic ones. I should know, I did a thesis on [originally] hadron nomenclatures, and mesons states were way too complicated to address. I managed to come up with a [IMO] much simpler naming scheme for baryons, but mesons were sadly too muddy to streamline. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 12:25, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
