It is plausible that several of the most profound aspects of low-energy QCD dynamics are connected to diquark correlations, including: paucity of exotics (which is the foundation of the quark model and of traditional nuclear physics), similarity of mesons and baryons, color superconductivity at high density, hyperfine splittings, $\Delta I = 1/2$ rule, and some striking features of structure and fragmentation functions. After a brief overview of these issues, I discuss how diquarks can be studied in isolation, both phenomenologically and numerically, and present approximate mass differences for diquarks with different quantum numbers. The mass-loaded generalization of the Chew-Frautschi formula provides an essential tool.

  1. Quark-diquark effective mass formalism for heavy baryon spectroscopy

    hep-ph 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A quark-diquark formalism extracts effective masses and couplings from known heavy baryon data to predict spectra across singly, doubly, and triply heavy sectors with two scenarios and a mass-dependent binding term.

  2. Mass spectrum, magnetic moments and Regge trajectories of $\Omega_{ccb}$ and $\Omega_{cbb}$ baryons in the nonrelativistic quark--diquark model

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    In a nonrelativistic quark-diquark model fitted to B_c meson data, the authors predict ground-state masses of ~8.0 GeV for Ω_ccb and ~11.0 GeV for Ω_cbb along with magnetic moments and Regge trajectories for different...
