Higher meson resonances in the SU(6) symmetry

Abstract

The mass values of positive parity meson resonances are compared in 189 and 405 with predictions of simple SU(6) mass formulae. It turns out that the 2 + mesons alone can be assigned to both 189 and 405. Nevertheless 405 seems to be more promising, for it allows to include all well established positive parity mesons.
