or

If Theta pentaquark doesn’t exist,then these (and many other theorists)should be congratulated on their creativity

Pentaquark

Somethings are deceptively simple

m(Bc) = 6276.5 (4.0) (2.7)


m(Bc) = 6276.5 (4.0) (2.7)

m(c)+m(b) ~ ½[m(psi) + m(upsilon)] = 6278.6

Heavy mass scale of c and b make agreements look artificially good

better than 1 per mille !

S=0 cannot decay to S=0 + S=0 “spin singlet selection rule”

Factorisation and S=1 creationis powerful result if generally true.
