Theory introduction to baryon spectroscopy

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2022-07-13 v1

Abstract

In these introductory notes I give a brief overview on some theoretical aspects of light baryon spectroscopy. The first part contains a discussion of the symmetries of the baryon spectrum, the construction of flavor wave functions and some basic features of quark models. The second part examines the need for relativistic quantum field theory and focusses on spectrum calculations with functional methods.
