h. In some instances assignments within the q q meson model are only tentative; here
best guess assignments are made.
i. Many states appearing in the Meson Listings are not yet assigned within the q q
model. Here nq23 and nJ are assigned according to the states likely flavors and
spin; all such unassigned light isoscalar states are given the flavor code 22. Within
these groups nL = 0, 1, 2, . . . is used to distinguish states of increasing mass. These
states are flagged using n = 9. It is to be expected that these numbers will evolve
as the nature of the states are elucidated.
6. The numbering of baryons is again guided by the nonrelativistic quark model, see
Table 13.4.
a. The numbers specifying a baryons quark content are such that in general
nq 1 nq 2 nq 3 .
b. Two states exist for J = 1/2 baryons containing 3 different types of quarks. In the
lighter baryon (, , , . . .) the light quarks are in an antisymmetric (J = 0) state
while for the heavier baryon ( 0 , 0 , 0 , . . .) they are in a symmetric (J = 1) state.
In this situation nq2 and nq3 are reversed for the lighter state, so that the smaller
number corresponds to the lighter baryon.
c. At present most Monte Carlos do not include excited baryons and no systematic
scheme has been developed to denote them, though one is foreseen. In the
meantime, use of the PDG 96 [5] numbers for excited baryons is recommended.
7. The gluon, when considered as a gauge boson, has official number 21. In codes for
glueballs, however, 9 is used to allow a notation in close analogy with that of hadrons.
8. The pomeron and odderon trajectories and a generic reggeon trajectory of states in
QCD are assigned codes 990, 9990, and 110 respectively, where the final 0 indicates the
indeterminate nature of the spin, and the other digits reflect the expected valence
flavor content. We do not attempt a complete classification of all reggeon trajectories,
since there is currently no need to distinguish a specific such trajectory from its
lowest-lying member.
9. Two-digit numbers in the range 2130 are provided for the Standard Model gauge
bosons and Higgs.
10. Codes 81100 are reserved for generator-specific pseudoparticles and concepts.
11. The search for physics beyond the Standard Model is an active area, so these codes are
also standardized as far as possible.
a. A standard fourth generation of fermions is included by analogy with the first
three.
