In this work, we systematically study the mass spectra and strong decays of $1P$ and $2S$ charmed and charmed-strange baryons in the framework of nonrelativistic constituent quark models. With the light quark cluster-heavy quark picture,…

The mass spectrum of the positive parity [56,2^+] baryons is studied in the 1/Nc expansion up to and including O(1/Nc) effects with SU(3) symmetry breaking implemented to first order. A total of eighteen mass relations result, several of…
We study the chiral expansion of the baryon octet and decuplet masses in the isospin limit. It is illustrated that a chiral expansion of the one-loop contributions is rapidly converging up to quark masses that generously encompasses the…
The perturbative QCD calculation of heavy quark fragmentation into a heavy meson is extended to predict fragmentation into heavy flavor baryons. This is accomplished by implementing the quark-diquark model of the baryons. Several diquark…
We study the mass spectra of excited baryons with the use of the lattice QCD simulations. We focus our attention on the problem of the level ordering between the positive-parity excited state N'(1440) (the Roper resonance) and the…
The $1/N_c$ expansion method for studying the mass spectrum of excited baryons is shortly reviewed together with applications to mixed symmetric states. The $[{\bf 70, \ell^+}]$ multiplet, belonging to the $N$ = 2 band, is reanalyzed, with…
We present lattice-QCD results on the nucleon isovector axial, scalar and tensor charges, the isovector electromagnetic Dirac and Pauli form factors, and the connected parts of the isoscalar charges. The calculations have been done using…
The 1/N_c expansion of QCD with N_c=3 has been successful in explaining a wide variety of QCD phenomenology. Here I focus on the contracted spin-flavor symmetry of baryons in the large-N_c limit and deviations from spin-flavor symmetry due…
An analytic resolution of the covariant oscillator quark model for a three-body system is presented. Our harmonic potential is a general quadratic potential which can simulate both a $\delta$-shape configuration or a simplified…
This talk reviews recent developments in the use of large $N_c$ QCD in the description of baryonic resonances. The emphasis is on the model-independent nature of the approach. Key issues discussed include the spin-flavor symmetry which…
This work continues our program of lattice-QCD baryon physics using staggered fermions for both the sea and valence quarks. We present a proof-of-concept study that demonstrates, for the first time, how to calculate baryon matrix elements…
We briefly describe our relativistic quark-diquark model, developed within the framework of point form dynamics, which is the relativistic extension of the interacting quark-diquark model. In order to do that we have to show the main…
The 1/Nc expansion is formulated for the baryon wave function in terms of a specially constructed generating functional. The leading order of this 1/Nc expansion is universal for all low-lying baryons [including the O(1/Nc) and O(Nc^0)…
We compute the hadronic matrix elements of the four-quark operators relevant for $K^0-{\bar K^0}$ mixing beyond the Standard Model. Our results are from lattice QCD simulations with $n_f=2+1$ flavours of domain-wall fermion, which exhibit…
We investigate baryon-baryon interactions with strangeness $S=-2$ and isospin I=0 system from Lattice QCD. In order to solve this system, we prepare three types of baryon-baryon operators ($\Lambda\Lambda$, $N\Xi$ and $\Sigma\Sigma$) for…
Energies for excited light baryons are computed in quenched QCD with a pion mass of 490 MeV. Operators used in the simulations include local operators and the simplest nonlocal operators that have nontrivial orbital structures. All…
In this work, we enumerated the mass spectra of the experimentally unobserved $1F$-wave states with the the orbital angular momentum $L$ = 3 for the singly heavy $\Sigma_{Q}$, $\Xi^{\prime}_{Q}$, and $\Omega_{Q}$ $(Q=c, b)$ baryons in the…
A potential model for the interaction between a charmed baryon ($\Lambda_c$, $\Sigma_c$, and $\Sigma_c^*$) and the nucleon ($N$) is constructed. The model contains a long-range meson ($\pi$ and $\sigma$) exchange part and a short-distance…
Corrections to the masses of baryons from baryon-meson loops can induce splittings between baryons which are comparable to those arising from the residual interactions between the quarks. These corrections are calculated using a…
