Possible Long-Lived Hyperstrange Multiquark Droplets

This Letter proposes, on the basis of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology bag model of hadrons, that extended, massive, multiquark states possessing great strangeness may be metastable. Such novel states of matter would have strangeness to baryon-number ratio $\frac{\mathrm{}\left|S\right|\mathrm{}}{A}\simeq 2$ with $A\gtrsim 10$ and estimated lifetime ≳ ${10}^{-4\mathrm{}}$ sec.
