Question: The particles X 0 (1193) and Y (1321) can be produced in the strong interaction processes K + p Ï 0 + X 0 and
The particles X0(1193) and Y(1321) can be produced in the strong interaction processes K+ p Ï0+ X0and K+ p K++ Yrespectively. Deduce the baryon number, strangeness, charm and bottom quantum numbers in each case and using these give their quark content. The Y(1321) decays by the reaction Y Î + Ï. Use the typical values of Table 3.5 to give a rough estimate of its lifetime.
Table 3.5 The combinations of charge and strangeness allowed for hadrons in the simple quark model for states with C = = 0. (b) Mesons (a) Baryons 1, 0 1, 0, 1 0, -1 2, 1, 0, 1 1, 0, 1 0, 1 1 -1 -2 -1 -3 -1
