Multibaryon states in the bag model

In the MIT bag model we calculate the masses of all colorless $N$-quark states, for $N=3, 6, 9, 12,15, \mathrm{and} 18$, with the quarks in $s_{\frac{1}{2}}$ states of the bag. For fixed $N$ these states belong to only one SU(6) irreducible representation. We give SU(6) mass formulas for these states. Several candidates for the lightest $N=6\mathrm{}$ states are already available. Especially in the $\Lambda N$ channel the lowest three predicted states seem to show up in the data.
