The baryon spectra are discussed in the context of the $1/N_c$ expansion approach, with emphasis on mixed symmetric states. The contributions of the spin dependent terms as a function of the excitation energy are shown explicitly. At large…
The lower excitation spectrum of the nucleon and $\Delta$ is calculated in a relativistic chiral quark model. Corrections to the baryon mass spectrum from the second order self-energy and exchange diagrams induced by pion and gluon fields…
We investigate the behavior of light baryon masses in three inequivalent large-$N_c$ limits: 't~Hooft, QCD$_{{\rm AS}}$ and Corrigan-Ramond. Our framework is a constituent quark model with relativistic-type kinetic energy, stringlike…
In the low-energy regime light and strange baryons should be considered as systems of constituent quarks with confining interaction and a chiral interaction that is mediated by Goldstone bosons as well as by vector and scalar mesons. The…
We perform the first Lattice calculation about the charmed hadron spin decomposition using overlap fermions on a 2+1 flavor RBC/UKQCD domain-wall gauge configurations at 0.083 fm with 300 MeV pion mass. It is found that the contributions of…
We study the operator description of the gluon spin contribution ($\Gamma$) to the nucleon's spin as it is measured in deep inelastic processes. $\Gamma$ can be related to the forward matrix element of a local gluon operator in $A^+=0$…
We argue directly from Witten's analysis of large $N_c$ baryons that the structure of the $s$-wave low-spin baryon states in QCD becomes spin-independent as $N_c\rightarrow\infty$. This property leads to $SU(6)$-like behavior of static…
The generalization of QCD to many colors is not unique; each distinct choice corresponds to a distinct 1/N_c expansion. The familiar 't Hooft N_c -> \infty limit places quarks in the fundamental representation of SU(N_c), while an…
Nonperturbative spin-dependent forces of quarks in a baryon are calculated directly from the QCD Lagrangian in the framework of the Field Correlator Method both for heavy and light quarks. Resulting forces contain terms of 5 different…
The leading chiral contributions to the quark and gluon components of the proton spin are calculated using heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory. Similar calculations are done for the moments of the generalized parton distributions…
We study the properties and couplings of hybrid baryons in the large-$N_c$ expansion. These are color-neutral baryon states which contain in addition to $N_c$ quarks also one constituent gluon. Hybrid baryons with both symmetric and mixed…
I discuss the structure of current-induced bottom baryon to charm baryon transitions, and the structure of pion and photon transitions between heavy charm or bottom baryons in the Heavy Quark Symmetry (HQS) limit as $m_Q\rightarrow\infty$.…
Using variational methods, we numerically investigate the matrix model for the two-color QCD coupled to a single quark (matrix-QCD$_{2,1}$) in the limit of ultra-strong Yang-Mills coupling ($g =\infty$). The spectrum of the model has…
A dynamical valence and sea quark mixing model is shown to fit the baryon ground state properties as well as the spin content of the nucleon. The relativistic correction and the $q^3{\leftrightarrow} q^3q\bar{q}$ transition terms induced by…
We investigate the relation between the topology of a nucleon and its spin composition. We approach this question in (1+1) dimensional single-flavor QCD with a large number of color. In this limit the theory can be shown to be dual to the…
Different mechanisms have been proposed to account for the spin-dependent interaction between quarks in ground-state hadrons. The first mechanism is the chromomagnetic interaction arising from one-gluon exchange, a second mechanism is an…

We calculate the quark spin contribution to the total angular momentum of flavor octet and flavor decuplet ground state baryons using a spin-flavor symmetry based parametrization method of quantum chromodynamics. We find that third order…
The properties of baryons containing one heavy quark are studied in the Skyrme model, where they are treated as bound states of a heavy meson with an $SU(2)$ chiral soliton. In the large $N_c$ limit, the baryon spectrum is an infinite tower…
The bound state of constituent quarks forming a $Qqq$ composite baryon is investigated in a QCD-inspired effective light-front model. The light-front Faddeev equations are derived and solved numerically. The masses of the spin 1/2 low-lying…
