Current measurements of isospin splittings in mesons and baryons are sufficiently precise that they allow estimates of the mass difference between constituent up and down quarks. Some previous results are updated in the light of these new…
The SELEX Collaboration has reported a very large isospin splitting of doubly charmed baryons. We show that this effect would imply that the doubly charmed baryons are very compact. One intriguing possibility is that such baryons have a…
Decay constants of $D$ and $B$ mesons are estimated within the framework of a heavy-quark approach using measured isospin mass splittings in the $D$, $D^*$, and $B$ states to isolate the electromagnetic hyperfine interaction between quarks.…
The isospin mass splittings of the pseudoscalar and vector D and B light-heavy quark system have been calculated using the method of QCD sum rules. Nonperturbative QCD effects are shown to be very small, so that mass splittings arise almost…
The mass splittings of the pseudoscalar and vector D and B light-heavy quark systems have been calculated using the method of QCD sum rules. Electromagnetic, quark mass, and nonperturbative QCD effects are all included. The results are in…
We calculate the $m_d-m_u$ contribution to the mass splittings in baryonic isospin multiplets using SU(3) chiral perturbation theory and lattice QCD. Fitting isospin-averaged perturbation theory functions to PACS-CS and QCDSF-UKQCD…
Lattice QCD simulations are now reaching a precision where isospin breaking effects become important. Previously, we have developed a program to systematically investigate the pattern of flavor symmetry beaking within QCD and successfully…
A recent general analysis of light-baryon isospin splittings is updated and extended to charmed baryons. The measured $\Sigma_c$ and $\Xi_c$ splittings stand out as being difficult to understand in terms of two-body forces alone. We also…
Recent experiments show that the isospin-violating mass splitting of the B mesons is very small, but the best fits with a QCD sum rule analysis give a splitting of at least 1.0 MeV. The isospin-violating mass splittings of the charmed…
In this paper, the electromagnetic mass differences of heavy hadrons are discussed, while ignoring the relevant hyperfine interactions. The effects of one-photon exchange interaction and up-down quark mass difference are parameterized. Two…
We calculate the mass splittings within the heavy baryon isospin multiplets \Sigma_{c(b)} and \Xi_{c(b)}' in chiral perturbation theory to leading one-loop order. The pattern of the mass splittings in the \Sigma_c iso-triplet, which is…
We present lattice results for the spectrum of mesons containing one heavy quark and of baryons containing one or two heavy quarks. The calculation is done in the quenched approximation using the NRQCD formalism for the heavy quark. We…
The large number of $B_c$ mesons observed by LHCb suggests a sizable cross section for producing doubly-heavy baryons in the same experiment. Motivated by this, we estimate masses of the doubly-heavy $J=1/2$ baryons $\Xi_{cc}$, $\Xi_{bb}$,…
Supposing quark--diquark structure of baryons, we look for systematics of baryons composed of light quarks ($q=u,d$). We systematize baryons using the notion of two diquarks: (i) axial--vector state, $D^{1}_{1}$, with the spin $S_D=1$ and…
We estimate the isospin breaking contributions to the baryon masses which we analyzed recently using a loop expansion in the heavy baryon approximation to chiral effective field theory. To one loop, the isospin breaking corrections come…
Masses and decay constants of mesons containing a single $c$ or $b$ quark are described within the framework of heavy-quark symmetry. The $B_s^* - B_s$ and $\bar B^{*0} - \bar B^0$ mass splittings are found equal to within a fraction of an…
The least well-known octet baryon mass is $M_{\Xi^0} = 1314.9 \pm 0.6$ MeV. The prospect of an improved measurement of its mass by the KTeV experimental program at Fermilab, and opportunities for improvements in charged and excited hyperon…
The masses of baryons containing a single heavy quark are studied in a combined expansion in $1/m_Q$, $1/N_c$ and $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry breaking. Heavy quark baryon mass splittings are related to mass splittings of the octet and decuplet…
In this work we propose a method for including strong isospin breaking in twisted mass lattice calculations, while preserving flavor identification. We utilize a partially quenched construction in which the sea quarks are given by the…
The masses of the yet undiscovered baryons containing single $c$ or $b$ quarks are estimated from the known masses using the following rules: equal distances in mass between the isomultiplets forming sextets, equal mass differences between…
