Perhaps a stable dihyperon. [Bag model]

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
In the quark bag model, the same gluon-exchange forces which make the proton lighter than the ..delta.. (1236) bind six quarks to form a stable, flavor-singlet (with strangeness of -2) J/sup P/=0/sup +/ dihyperon (H) at 2150 MeV. Another isosinglet dihyperon (H*) with J/sup P/=1/sup +/ at 2335 MeV should appear as a bump in ..lambda lambda.. invariant-mass plots. Production and decay systematics of the H are discussed. (AIP)
