Abstract

This paper is a continuation of previous work about the effects of a phenomenological flavour dependent force in a relativistically covariant constituent quark model based on the Salpeter equation on the structure of light-flavoured baryon resonances. Here the longitudinal and transverse helicity amplitudes as studied experimentally in the electro-excitation of nucleon- and Δ\Delta resonances are calculated. In particular the amplitudes for the excitation of three and four star resonances as calculated in a previous model A\mathcal A are compared to those of the novel model C\mathcal C as well as to existing and partially new experimental data such as e.g. determined by the CB-ELSA collaboration. A brief discussion of some improvements to model C\mathcal C is given after the introduction.
