${{\mathit b}}$-baryon ADMIXTURE MEAN LIFE

INSPIRE   PDGID:
S061T
Each measurement of the ${{\mathit b}}$-baryon mean life is an average over an admixture of various ${{\mathit b}}~$baryons which decay weakly. Different techniques emphasize different admixtures of produced particles, which could result in a different ${{\mathit b}}$-baryon mean life. More ${{\mathit b}}$-baryon flavor specific channels are not included in the measurement.
