Murray gellmanns and yuval neemans su3 model sometimes called the eightfold way predicted this hyperons existence, mass and that it will only undergo weak decay processes. The discovery was a great triumph in the study of quark processes, since it was found only after its existence, mass, and decay products had been predicted in 1961 by the american physicist murray gellmann and, independently, by the israeli physicist yuval. However, to determine the isospin decomposition of the phototransition amplitudes to these channels, photoproduction measurements are necessary on both the proton and the neutron. The sigma baryons are a family of subatomic hadron particles which have two quarks from the first flavour generation up andor down quarks, and a third quark from higher flavour generations, in a combination where the wavefunction does not swap sign when any two quark flavours are swapped. Baryons and mesons are included in the overall class known as hadrons, the particles which interact by the strong force. We analyze the renormalization equation at the oneloop level.

So and i do hope im remembering this correctly, the lambda particle has a wavefunction that is flavorantisymmetric between the u and d quarks, whereas the sigma has a wavefunction that is flavorsymmetric between those two quarks.
