History: chadwick 1930’s: proton & neutron ..all we need??? 1950’s: ,,,,,… “Had I foreseen that, I would have gone into botany” – Fermi 1960’s: The 8-fold way “3 quarks for Mister Mark” 1970’s add charmed particles 1980’s & beauty 1990’s & (finally?) top Fermi Gell-Mann Richter Ting Lederman Peters Jones
Hadron “zoo” mesons baryons

Fabulously successful, but… • quarks are not seen • why only qqq and qq combinations? • What about spin-statistics?
W- s-1/3 s-1/3 s-1/3 2 of these s-quarks are in the same quantum state Das ist verboten!!
The strong interaction “charge” of each quark comes in 3 different varieties Y. Nambu O. Greenberg W- s-1/3 s-1/3 s-1/3 the 3 s-1/3 quarks in the W- have different color charges & evade Pauli
QCD: Gauge theory for color charges Nambu Gell-Mann & Fritzsch generalization of QED QED QCD er eb eg scalar charge: e isovector charge: QED gauge Xform QCD gauge Xform + ie A + i ali Gi 1 vector field (photon) 8 vector fields (gluons) eight 3x3 SU(3) matrices
Attractive configurations eijkeiejek i ≠ j ≠ k dijei ej same as the rules for combing colors to get white: 3 different primary colors color-complementary color eiejek color charges Hence the name: Quantum Chromodynamics
Difference between QED & QCD QED: photons have no charge QCD: gluons carry color charges gluons interact with each other
Vacuum polarization QED vs QCD 2nf 11CA in QCD: CA=3, & this dominates

Tests of QED and EW sectors Electro-Weak sector (tested @ ~0.01% level) QED (tested @ ppb) Example: (g-2)/2|electron Expt: 1,159,652,188.4(4.3)x10-12 Theory: 1,159,652,201.4(28)x10-12
Test QCD with 3-jet events(& deep inelastic scattering) as gluon rate for 3-jet events should decrease with Ecm
“running” as Why are these people smiling?
Probe QCD from other directions non-qq or non-qqq hadron spectroscopies: Pentaquarks: e.g. an S=+1 baryon (only anti-s quark has S=+1) Glueballs: gluon-gluon color singlet states Multi-quark mesons: qq-gluon hybrid mesons d u u d s d c d c c c
Pentaquarks “Seen” in many experiments but not seen in just as many others Belle BES BaBar CDF High interest: 1st pentaquark paper has ~500 citations
Experimental situation is messy(many contradictory results) NA49 pp @ Ecm=17 GeV (fixed tgt) (PRL92, 052301: 237+ citations!) COMPASS mp @ Em =160 GeV (fixed tgt) X(1862): qqssd 1862 ± 2 MeV FWHM = 17 MeV = 5.6 100sof X(1530)s but no hint of X(1862) hep-ex/0503033

no cc state fits well hc” hc’ cc1’ y2 hc2 y3 M too low and G too small angular dist’n rules out 1+- 3872 G(gJ/y) way too small G(gcc1) too small;M(p+p-) wrong pp hc should dominate G( gcc2 & DD) too small SLO hep-ex/0407033
