Spectroscopy of Hadrons with b Quarks
R. Van Kooten
TL;DR
This paper reviews recent experimental findings on the spectroscopy of B hadrons, highlighting new heavy states observed at Tevatron and B factories, including excited mesons and baryons with b quarks.
Contribution
It provides the first comprehensive overview of the latest experimental measurements of heavy B hadron states, including orbitally excited and baryonic states.
Findings
Observation of new b-baryon states Sigma_b, Xi_b, and Omega_b.
Measurements of masses and properties of Bs* and B** states.
Confirmation of heavy hadron spectroscopy predictions.
Abstract
Recent experimental results on the spectroscopy of B hadrons are presented. The focus is primarily on the heavier states currently accessible only at the Tevatron and the B factories running at the Upsilon(5S) resonance, i.e., Bs*, the L = 1 orbitally excited states B** and $Bs**, and the new b-baryon states Sigma(*)_b, Xi_b, and Omega_b.
