It should actually look like this:

If you look at the full list of baryons on Wikipedia you'll see that it's one of many in this format: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_baryons This is a Xi.
The particle Xi_b^ comprises one “up”, one “strange” and one “bottom” quark (usb)*
So, it's an up strange bottom (usb) baryon.

#6I am still waiting for them to discover the Bozon, the carrier of the Bozo force.

Except that that isn't what it's called. That's the TeX way of describing it. Funny that their entire press release assumes you are looking through a TeX or LaTeX lens :-) It should actually look like this: http://equationater.com/84e00ccd9705dca5bc0917a33e162502.png If you look at the full list of baryons on Wikipedia you'll see that it's one of many in this format: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_baryons This…

how does that differ from \Xi_b^0, which also seems to be a usb baryon?
is there a standard way to pronounce those symbols (e.g. "xi star sub-b")?

#9Not really a new particle as much as a resonance mode. No big deal...

two questions-- how does that differ from \Xi_b^0, which also seems to be a usb baryon? is there a standard way to pronounce those symbols (e.g. "xi star sub-b")?
