Abstract:

The masses of s-wave bottom baryons are discussed in a semirelativistic quark model, on the basis of a quark-distance relation. We stress that the Σb is heavier than Ξb(b[su], b[sd]) containing the antisymmetric su(or sd) subsystem. We conclude that the two candidates for Λb with very different masses are different states; Basile et al.'s result 5425+175-75 MeV is Λb(b[du]), but Arenton et al.'s result ∼5750 MeV is Ξ′0b(b[su]).
