We calculate the baryon magnetic moments using covariant Chiral Perturbation Theory ($\chi$PT) within the Extended-on-mass-shell (EOMS) renormalization scheme. By fitting the two available low-energy constants (LECs), we improve the…

From the pion production rates n_{pi} / A_{part} and the pion charge ratios R_{pi} = n_{pi^-} / n_{pi^+} and S_{pi} = n_{pi^0} / (n_{pi^-} + n_{pi^+}), measured in p + A and A + A reactions, it is concluded that the mass of the Delta(1232)…
We perform a complete and systematic calculation of the octet-baryon form factors within the fully covariant approach of SU(3) chiral perturbation theory at O(p^3). We use the extended on-mass shell renormalization scheme, and include…

We stress, on theoretical and phenomenological grounds, the importance of the $\Delta(1232)$-resonance in a chiral effective field theory approach applied to the study of $\pi N$ scattering. We show how its inclusion as a dynamical degree…

We revisit the chiral properties of nucleon interpolating currents, and show that of the two leading order currents $j_1$ and $j_2$, only two linear combinations $j_1\pm j_2$ transform covariantly under the anomalous $U(1)_A$ symmetry. As a…
We calculate the width of the delta resonance at leading two-loop order in baryon chiral perturbation theory. This gives a correlation between the leading pion-nucleon-delta and pion-delta couplings, which is relevant for the analysis of…

We show how the unitarized description of pion nucleon scattering within Heavy Baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory can be considerably improved, by a suitable reordering of the expansion over the nucleon mass. Within this framework, the…
In this work we systematically study both the mass spectra and strong decays of the nucleon and $\Delta$ resonances up to the $N=2$ shell within a unified quark model framework with chiral dynamics. In this framework we achieve a good…
We investigate the electromagnetic mass differences of SU(3) baryons, using an "model-independent approach" within a chiral soliton model. The electromagnetic self-energy corrections to the masses of the baryon are expressed as the baryonic…
There is an important connection between the low energy theorems of QCD and the energy dependence of the Delta resonance in pi-N scattering, as well as the closely related gamma^{*} N -> pi N reaction. The resonance shape is due not only to…
