Weak radiative decays of beauty baryons into strange baryons, induced by the electroweak penguin, are estimated by using a quark model approach. Relations between formfactors in the semileptonic and in the weak radiative decays are derived…

The constituent quark model can explain the strong selectivity of the $N\eta$ decay branching ratios of the nucleon resonances if the fine structure interaction between the constituent quarks is described in terms of Goldstone boson…

The strong and radiative decays of the low-lying $\lambda$-mode $D$-wave $\Lambda_{c(b)}$, $\Sigma_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}'$, and $\Omega_{c(b)}$ baryons are studied in a constituent quark model. Our calculation shows the…
We study the phase diagram of a generalized chiral SU(3)-flavor model in mean-field approximation. In particular, the influence of the baryon resonances, and their couplings to the scalar and vector fields, on the characteristics of the…
It is shown that the number of independent weak form factors collapses if the heavy diquark exists inside the baryons containing a single heavy quark. The relations between the weak form factors are quite different in the case of light…
The properties of baryon resonances are extracted from a complicated process of fitting sophisticated, empirical models to data. The reliability of this process comes from the quality of data and the robustness of the models employed. With…
We study the masses of radial and orbital excited states of nonstrange singly charmed baryons in the framework of hypercentral Constituent Quark Model (hCQM). To obtain the mass spectra, the Coulomb plus screened potential is employed with…
We calculate mass spectra of charmed baryons within a relativistically covariant quark model based on the Bethe-Salpeter-equation in instantaneous approximation. Interactions are given by a linearly rising three-body confinement potential…

Excited baryons may be analyzed in the 1/N_c expansion as true resonances in scattering amplitudes. The key idea making this program possible is a generalization of methods originally applied to chiral soliton models in the 1980's. One…
