The Body Center Cubic Quark Lattice Model

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

The Standard Model while successful in many ways is incomplete; many questions remain. The origin of quark masses and hadronization of quarks are awaiting an answer. From the Dirac sea concept, we infer that two kinds of elementary quarks (u(0) and d(0)) constitute a body center cubic (BCC) quark lattice with a lattice constant a < 101810^{-18}m in the vacuum. Using energy band theory and the BCC quark lattice, we can deduce the rest masses and the intrinsic quantum numbers (I, S, C, b and Q) of quarks. With the quark spectrum, we deduce a baryon spectrum. The theoretical spectrum is in agreement well with the experimental results. Not only will this paper provide a physical basis for the Quark Model, but also it will open a door to study the more fundamental nature at distance scales <101810^{-18}m. This paper predicts some new quarks ucu_{c}(6490) and db_{b}(9950), and new baryons Λc+\Lambda_{c}^{+}(6500), Λb0\Lambda_{b}^{0}(9960).
