Exclusive $\pi^+\pi^-p$ photo- and electroproduction data from CLAS have considerably extended the information on the spectrum and structure of nucleon resonances. The data from the $\pi^+\pi^-p$ and $N\pi$ channels have provided results on…
In this work the roles of the nucleon resonances in the $\Lambda$(1520) photoproduction off proton target are investigated within the effective Lagrangian method. Besides the Born terms,including contact term, $s$-, $u$- and $K$ exchanged…
A Poincar\'e-covariant quark+diquark Faddeev equation is used to compute nucleon elastic form factors on $0\leq Q^2\leq 18 \,m_N^2$ ($m_N$ is the nucleon mass) and elucidate their role as probes of emergent hadronic mass in the Standard…
A nucleon resonance with spin-parity $J^P=3/2^-$ and mass about 2.1 GeV is essential to reproduce the photoproduction cross sections for $\Lambda(1520)$ released by the LEPS and CLAS Collaborations. It can be explained as the third nucleon…
Precise knowledge of the nucleon's axial-current form factors is crucial for modeling GeV-scale neutrino-nucleus interactions. Unfortunately, the axial form factor remains insufficiently constrained to meet the precision requirements of…
We apply our method of complex scaling, valid for a general class of potentials, in a search for nucleon-nucleon S-matrix poles up to 2 GeV laboratory kinetic energy. We find that the realistic potentials JISP16, constructed from inverse…

After the initial discovery of the so-called "spin crisis in the parton model" in the 1980's, a large set of polarization data in deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering was collected at labs like SLAC, DESY and CERN. More recently, new…
The representation of the wave functions of the nucleon resonances within a relativistic framework is a complex task. In a nonrelativistic framework the orthogonality between states can be imposed naturally. In a relativistic…
