Light-diquark spin-isospin correlation

ID: light-diquark-spin-isospin-correlation

Two light quarks in a symmetric spatial state and the antisymmetric colour pair inside a three-quark colour singlet require symmetric spin-flavour symmetry. Their isospin singlet and spin singlet are both antisymmetric, while their respective triplets are symmetric. Thus the allowed pairs have or ; opposite exchange parities are excluded. Coupling an isospin-zero spin-one-half quark gives an baryon or baryons.
