Determination of SU(6) Clebsch-Gordan Coefficients and Baryon Mass and Electromagnetic Moment Relations

Abstract

We compute and tabulate the Clesbsch--Gordan coefficients of the $SU(6)\supset SU(3)\times SU(2)$ product $\overline{56}\otimes 56$, which are relevant to the nonrelativistic spin-flavor symmetry of the lightest baryons. Under the assumption that the largest representation in this product, the $2695$, gives rise to operators in a chiral expansion that produce numerically small effects, we obtain a set of relations among the masses of the baryons, as well as among their magnetic dipole and higher multipole moments. We compare the mass relations to experiment, and find numerical predictions for the ${\Sigma }^0$-$\Lambda$ mass mixing parameter and eighteen of the twenty-seven magnetic moments in the $56$.
