List of baryons

A diagram of a proton, one of the most famous baryons, containing two up quarks and one down quark

Baryons are composite particles made of three quarks, as opposed to mesons, which are composite particles made of one quark and one antiquark. Baryons and mesons are both hadrons, which are particles composed solely of quarks or both quarks and antiquarks. The term baryon is derived from the Greek "βαρύς" (barys), meaning "heavy", because, at the time of their naming, it was believed that baryons were characterized by having greater masses than other particles that were classed as matter.

Until a few years ago, it was believed that some experiments showed the existence of pentaquarks – baryons made of four quarks and one antiquark.^[1]^[2] The particle physics community as a whole did not view their existence as likely by 2006^[3] and, by 2008, considered evidence to be overwhelmingly against the existence of the reported pentaquarks.^[4]

Since baryons are composed of quarks, they participate in the strong interaction. Leptons, on the other hand, are not composed of quarks and as such do not participate in the strong interaction. The most famous baryons are the protons and neutrons that make up most of the mass of the visible matter in the universe, whereas electrons, the other major component of atoms, are leptons. Each baryon has a corresponding antiparticle known as an antibaryon in which quarks are replaced by their corresponding antiquarks. For example, a proton is made of two up quarks and one down quark, while its corresponding antiparticle, the antiproton, is made of two up antiquarks and one down antiquark.

Lists of baryons

These lists detail all known and predicted baryons in total angular momentum J = ¹⁄₂ and J = ³⁄₂ configurations with positive parity.

Baryons composed of one type of quark (uuu, ddd, ...) can exist in J = ³⁄₂ configuration, but J = ¹⁄₂ is forbidden by the Pauli exclusion principle.
Baryons composed of two types of quarks (uud, uus, ...) can exist in both J = ¹⁄₂ and J = ³⁄₂ configurations
Baryons composed of three types of quarks (uds, udc, ...) can exist in both J = ¹⁄₂ and J = ³⁄₂ configurations. Two J = ¹⁄₂ configurations are possible for these baryons.

The symbols encountered in these lists are: I (isospin), J (total angular momentum), P (parity), u (up quark), d (down quark), s (strange quark), c (charm quark), b (bottom quark), Q (charge), B (baryon number), S (strangeness), C (charm), B′ (bottomness), as well as a wide array of subatomic particles (hover for name). (See the baryon article for a detailed explanation of these symbols.)

Antiparticles are not listed in the tables; however, they simply would have all quarks changed to antiquarks (and antiquarks changed to quarks), and Q, B, S, C, B′, would be of opposite signs. Particles with ^† next to their names have been predicted by the Standard Model but not yet observed. Values in red have not been firmly established by experiments, but are predicted by the quark model and are consistent with the measurements.^[5]^[6]

^†^ Particle has not yet been observed.
^[a] ^ The masses of the proton and neutron are known with much better precision in atomic mass units (u) than in MeV/c², due to the relatively poorly known value of the elementary charge. In atomic mass unit, the mass of the proton is 7000100727646681200♠1.007276466812(90) u whereas that of the neutron is 7000100866491600000♠1.00866491600(43) u.

Baryon resonance particles

This short table gives the name, the quantum numbers (where known), and the status of baryons as given by PDG.^[36] Baryon resonance particles are subatomic particles with short half life and high mass, given in brackets. The spin-parity J^P (when known) is given with each particle. For the strongly decaying particles, the J^P values are considered to be part of the names.

****	Existence is certain, and properties are at least fairly well explored.
***	Existence ranges from fairly certain to certain, but further confirmation is desirable and/or quantum numbers, branching fractions, etc. are not well determined.
**	Evidence of existence is only fair.
*	Evidence of existence is poor.
