We have studied the three quark systems in an Effective Hamiltonian approach in QCD. With only two parameters: the string tension sigma and the strong coupling constant alpha_s we obtain a good description of the ground state light and…
Besides the ordinary hadrons, QCD allows the existence of states in which excitations of the gluonic field can play the role of valence particles, either alone in a glueball, or coupled to quarks in a hybrid. So, hybrid baryons, made of…

Baryons are modeled as bound states of scalar or axialvector diquarks and a constituent quark which interact through quark exchange. This description results as an approximation to the relativistic Faddeev equation for three quarks. The…
In this thesis the covariant Bethe-Salpeter equation formalism is used to study some properties of ground-state baryons. This formalism relies on the knowledge of the interaction kernel among quarks and of the full quark propagator. For the…

We show that a remarkable compatibility exists between the results of a potential model with constituent quarks and the 1/Nc expansion mass formula for strange and nonstrange baryon resonances. Such compatibility brings support to the basic…
Lattice quantum chromodynamics is used to constrain the interactions of two octet baryons at the SU(3) flavor-symmetric point, with quark masses that are heavier than those in nature (equal to that of the physical strange quark mass and…
The excited baryon masses are analyzed in the framework of the $1/N_c$ expansion using the available physical masses and also the masses obtained in lattice QCD for different quark masses. The baryon states are organized into irreducible…
We use a symmetry-preserving truncation of meson and baryon bound-state equations in quantum field theory in order to develop a unified description of systems constituted from light- and heavy-quarks. In particular, we compute the spectrum…

I give an overview on experimental studies of the spectrum and the structure of the excited states of the nucleon and what we can learn about their internal structure. One focus is on the efforts to obtain a more complete picture of the…
We present a unified picture of mesons and baryons in the Dyson-Schwinger/Bethe-Salpeter approach, wherein the quark-gluon and quark-(anti)quark interaction follow from a systematic truncation of the QCD effective action and includes all…

This presentation opens with a brief review of lattice QCD calculations showing the $2s$ radial excitation of the nucleon sits at approximately 2 GeV, well above the Roper resonance position. We then proceed to reconcile this observation…
