- Baryon Masses in the $1/N_c$ Expansion
- collaboration
- abstract
- The masses of baryons and heavy quark baryons are studied analytically
in an expansion in $1/N_c$, $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry breaking, and heavy-quark
symmetry breaking. The measured baryon masses are in striking agreement with
the $1/N_c$ hierarchy.
