    Quantitative corrections to mass sum rules involving baryons containing heavy quarks

    Quantitative corrections are estimated to three of Franklin's sum rules involving the masses of baryons containing at least one charmed quark and to three analogous sum rules for baryons containing at least one bottom quark. The corrections arise from three-body contributions to baryon interaction energies and are calculated from a semiempirical formula for the colormagnetic contributions to baryon masses.Comment: 4 pages, plainte

    Spin of ground state baryons

    We calculate the quark spin contribution to the total angular momentum of flavor octet and flavor decuplet ground state baryons using a spin-flavor symmetry based parametrization method of quantum chromodynamics. We find that third order SU(6) symmetry breaking three-quark operators are necessary to explain the experimental result Sigma_1=0.32(10). For spin 3/2 decuplet baryons we predict that the quark spin contribution is Sigma_3=3.93(22), i.e. considerably larger than their total angular momentum.Comment: 8 page

    The Case Work Notebook : An Analysis of Its Content

    Although the contemporary trend of the unionization of both professional and non-professional social service workers merits careful examination of both socio-structural and ideological dimensions, the following study is confined to a historical analysis of the professional, more specifically, casework interests of a group of professional social work unionists in the late 1930s, early 1940s. The method of content analysis is used to examine several major themes within a regular section, The Case Work Notebook, of the journal, Social Work Today, which was the major theoretical organ of the social work union movement
