Derives baryon masses from fundamental inputs, suggesting a theoretical framework for understanding quark dynamics.
The mass of any light baryon (uu, dd, ss quarks) is derived without fitting parameters from five fundamental inputs: QCD scale ΛQCD=200ΛQCD=200 independently via asymptotic freedom in deep inelastic scattering (high-Q2Q2 regime where hadrons do not yet form). Geometric factor π/2=1.5708π/2=1.5708Arising from equilateral triangle topology of three-body confinement (90° projection angle for ground state). Quark momentum pc=ΛQCD⋅π/2=314.16=ΛQCD⋅π/2=314.16 consequence of (1) and (2) — no fitting. Current quark massesmu=2.16=2.16, md=4.67=4.67, ms=93.0=93.0 exclusively on light meson spectra (π±π±, K±K±), never on baryons.
