Electromagnetic form factors of hyperons in a relativistic quark model

Nuclear Theory 2015-06-26 v1

Abstract

The relativistically covariant constituent quark model developed by the Bonn group is used to compute the EM form factors of strange baryons. We present form-factor results for the ground-state and some excited hyperons. The computed magnetic moments agree well with the experimental values and the magnetic form factors follow a dipole Q2Q^2 dependence.
