Abstract

We consider various hadron models with a string carrying n=3n=3 massive points (quarks): Y configuration, linear baryon model qq-qq-qq and the closed string. For these models classical rotational states (planar uniform rotations) are tested for stability with respect to small disturbances. It is shown that rotations of all mentioned models are unstable, but nature of this instability is different. For the model Y the instability results from existence of multiple real frequencies in the spectrum of small disturbances, but for the linear model and the closed string the similar spectra contain complex frequencies, corresponding to exponentially growing modes of disturbances. This classical rotational instability is important for describing excited hadrons, in particular, for the linear model and the closed string it results in additional contribution in width of hadron states.
