1960 A “new” application of Dalitz plots
Strong interaction resonances= discovery of Sigma*(1385)
Partner of Delta(1230)
Beginning of the Decuplet….
Soon followed byCsi*(1530)…..
And MGM Eightfold Way
![Page 6: How Quarks became Real. The first Dalitz Plot The first Dalitz Plot 1954 tau-theta analysis.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649d6a5503460f94a47ce2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
… and so Gell Mann invented the Eightfold Way
with octets and decuplets
and first spoke about it in 1961 at TIFR summer school in Bangalore
…. with Dick Dalitz in the audience
…. as recalled in 30 May email by G Rajasekran

During one of the lectures,
Dalitz questioned him about the triplets.
Why is he ignoring them?

During one of the lectures,
Dalitz questioned him about the triplets.
Why is he ignoring them?
Gell-Mann managed to evade it,inspite of Dalitz's repeated questioning.
If Gell-Mann had answered the question directly, quarks would have been born in Bangalore in 1961 instead of having to wait for another three years...."

1977 : L=3 levels identified
By 1974+ charm had established quarks as real even for scepticsBut there are some quirks of quarks prior to that “November revolution”that Dalitz stimulated. Were light constituent quarks “REAL”?

“The quark model is a convenient way for keeping track of the group theory labels”

Dalitz model: L=0 (Delta) L=1 L=2
What had they done?
Photoproduction of the L=1,2 N*: one of the two spin amplitudes vanishes for proton
No algebraic reason. CKO explain in quark model
Empirically three prominent resonances

1969 Lepton Photon Conf at Liverpool: Walker (Caltech) devotes review to CKO
This is the same conference which is dominated by DIS
But on return to Caltech, Walker impresses Feynman with the quark model resultsAnd it is this that Feynman takes up

1972: Electroproduction q^2 show it IS dynamic constituent quarks

Electroproduction Magnetic riseand then fall
Electric fall= dramatic q^2 effect
1972
Devenish and Lyth p. wave analysis confirmed the phenomenon;

The data at the time seemed to rule out the quark model!!
This was very worrying until clearer data on pi0 electroproduction and Devenish and Lyth’s analysis andconfirmed the predictions
The dramatic change in Helicity (poln asymmetry) as predicted by FEC + Gilman in constituent quark modelwas verified:
This confirmed that CKO and FKR analyses of photoproduction imply Constituent Quarks are real dynamical entities
(whatever constituent quarks actually are!)

1974 psi and charmoniumconfirmed quarks
RHD didn’t work on this
But Dalitz plots wereagain central in establishingcharmed D mesons in 1976

The discovery of the psi in November 74 changed everything….

Editing is so much easier nowadays: (examples of Dick’s preciselogic and insistence on perfection from Ron Horgan thesis)

I didn’t realise Dick had read my thesis until in 1981 he produced a paper himself out of the blue using itand insisted he include my name on it

and then turned to Spin+TOP quark with Gary Goldstein

THE NON RELATIVISTIC QUARK MODEL IS RIGHT (it describes so many data).
IT IS FOR THEORISTS TO EXPLAIN WHY
CONSTITUENT QUARKS ARE REAL;Its just that we don’t know what they are
Last word from Feynman (allegedly in response to MGM)
