Simple Classification of Light Baryons

TL;DR

The paper proposes a new fuzzy classification number for light baryons based on mass and quantum numbers, organizing known baryons into tables and predicting two new octets.

Contribution

It introduces a novel classification scheme using a fuzzy number $n$ and applies it to organize known baryons and predict new octets.

Findings

Organized known light baryons into a simple classification table.

Predicted two new possible octets of baryons.

Abstract

We introduce a classification number $n$ which describes the baryon mass information in a fuzzy manner. According to $n$ and $J^p$ of baryons, we put all known light baryons in a simple table in which some baryons with same ($n$, $J^p$) are classified as members of known octets or decuplets. Meanwhile, we predict two new possible octets.
