Mass Levels of Baryons and Mesons

Abstract
In this paper we investigate the relation between the observed mass levels of baryons and mesons as well as the resonance levels in pion-nucleon and kaon-nucleon reactions and the various configurations of particle states derived from Ikeda-Ogawa-Ohnuki's symmetry theory which is based on Sakata's composite particle model. It is found that there is a close correspondence between the theoretical levels and the experimental evidence.
