More than 99% of the mass of the visible universe is made up of protons and neutrons. Both particles are much heavier than their quark and gluon constituents, and the Standard Model of particle physics should explain this difference. We present a full ab initio calculation of the masses of protons, neutrons, and other light hadrons, using lattice quantum chromodynamics. Pion masses down to 190 mega–electron volts are used to extrapolate to the physical point, with lattice sizes of approximately four times the inverse pion mass. Three lattice spacings are used for a continuum extrapolation. Our results completely agree with experimental observations and represent a quantitative confirmation of this aspect of the Standard Model with fully controlled
uncertainties.
Latest in LATTICE QCD
All baryonic states listed in PDG can be made of 3 quarks only* classified as octets, decuplets and singlets of flavour SU(3)* Strangeness range from S=0 to S=-3
A baryonic state with S=+1 is explicitely EXOTIC
• Cannot be made of 3 quarks•Minimal quark content should be , hence pentaquark•Must belong to higher SU(3) multiplets, e.g anti-decuplet
qqqqs
Searches for such states started in 1966, with negativeresults till autumn 2002 [16 years after 1986 report of PDG !]
observation of a S=+1 baryon implies a new large multiplet of baryons (pentaquark is always ocompanied by its large family!)

Searches were for heavy and wide states
PENTA ?
Motivation for new measurements below = 20 GeVs
Practically no high or medium Pt data between Einc = 24 and 200 GeV
Mysterious transition around 80-90 GeV: convex versus concave spectra
Energy threshold for Jet-quenching?
Emergence of Cronin-effect in pA interactions is completely unknown

CBM Perspectives
Special requirements for Y-> e+e- and high pT
Extremely high intensity - Pile-up
Segmented multi-target - Relaxed vertex precision
Straight tracks - High momentum tracks
