An estimate of a lower bound on the masses of mirror baryons

We consider the most favorable conditions to indirectly observe the mixing of ordinary and mirror hadrons in non-leptonic and weak radiative decays of hyperons. This allows us to set a lower bound on the masses of mirror baryons. This bound turns out to be impressively high, of the order of 10 6 GeV...

Summary:We consider the most favorable conditions to indirectly observe the mixing of ordinary and mirror hadrons in non-leptonic and weak radiative decays of hyperons. This allows us to set a lower bound on the masses of mirror baryons. This bound turns out to be impressively high, of the order of 10 6 GeV.
