Odd thing in that episode of Voyager: they could use their transporter on the Omega thing, which esentially just converts it to an energy pattern and back. And yet, they couldn't just stop it in the "energy pattern" form and convert it to something else or just dump the data, noooooooooo, they had to go through all the episode trying to get rid of it. Nonsensical, I tell you. -- Consumed Crustacean | Talk | 01:36, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
When you say the omega minus particle has a relatively long lifetime you are mistaken. Hyperons have very short lifetimes, ranging from 10-10 sec. to 10-8 sec. The omega minus has an average lifetime of 10-10 sec. So having one of the shortest lifetimes of hyperons, I would say that it has a relatively short lifetime. Better yet I would probably say it has one of the shortest lifetimes among hyperons. Please consider revising. I do not edit articles without approval of the author.NucPhy7 00:46, 5 April 2007 (UTC))
Omega_b observed
[edit]On Aug 30, 2008, the DZero collaboration announced the observation of the Omega_b (ssb state). I considered updating the page, but it is so beautifully laid-out that I thought it best to let the author do the update. The reference is http://arxiv.org/abs/0808.4142 for the paper, which has been submitted to Physics Review Letters.LeeSawyer (talk) 01:23, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Five new Omenga States
[edit]relevant news Mar 16, 2017: "LHCb unveiled today the discovery of a new system of five particles, with the observation of five new narrow Ωc0 excited states.
LHCb physicists reconstructed a highly pure sample of charmed baryons Ξc+, with quark content csu, decaying into a proton p, a kaon K- and a pion π+. The p K-π+ invariant mass spectrum is shown in the left image below. The red peaking distribution shows the Ξc+ contribution above the background indicated by the blue dashed line."
