Support for the Jaffe-Wilczek Diquark Model of Pentaquarks

Abstract

I examine the diquark model of pentaquarks that was suggested by Jaffe and Wilczek. Based upon this model, I predict the states Theta(1530), N(1710), Sigma(1880) and Xi(1770) to be members of the same anti-decuplet. Moreover I predict the states N(1440), Lambda(1600), Sigma(1660) and Xi(1950) to be members of the corresponding octet.
