We construct the most general chiral effective Lagrangian for baryon-baryon contact interactions in flavor SU(3) up to order q^2 using a covariant power counting. A subset of these contact terms contributes to the baryon-baryon potential in…
We present an effective model, which is an extension of the usual linear sigma model, that contains a low energy multiplet for every hadronic particle type. These multiplets are a scalar nonet, a pseudoscalar nonet, a vector nonet, an…
Assuming the ${\bar D}^0, D^-, D^-_s$ and $B^+, B^0, B_s^0$ mesons belong to triplets of SU(3) flavor symmetry, we analyse the form factors in the semileptonic decays of these mesons. Both quark and meson mass differences are taken into…
We investigate the electromagnetic transition form factors of the baryon decuplet to the baryon octet, based on the self-consistent SU(3) chiral quark-soliton model, taking into account the effects of explicit breaking of flavor SU(3)…
Using the lowest order chiral Lagrangian we study s-wave interactions of the baryon decuplet with the octet of pseudoscalar mesons. We find two bound states in the flavour SU(3) limit corresponding to the octet and decuplet representations.…
A nonlinear chiral SU(3) approach including the spin 3/2 decuplet is developed to describe dense matter. The coupling constants of the baryon resonances to the scalar mesons are determined from the decuplet vacuum masses and SU(3) symmetry…
We employ the flavor SU(3) symmetry to analyze semileptonic decays of anti-triplet charmed baryons ($\Lambda^{+}_{c},\Xi_{c}^{+,0}$) and find that the experimental data on ${\cal B}(\Lambda_c\to\Lambda \ell^+\nu_{\ell})$ implies…
Using the approximate flavor SU(3) symmetry of strong interactions, we argue for the existence of a new Lambda baryon with J^P=3/2^-, the mass around 1850 MeV, the total width of about 130 MeV, significant branching into the Sigma \pi and…
The charge radii of the octet and decuplet baryons have been calculated in the framework of chiral constituent quark model ($\chi$CQM) using a general parameterization (GP) method. Our results are comparable with the latest experimental…
We find remarkable agreement with the observed excitations of hadrons with a simple three parameter mass relation of the SU(3) subgroup of the underlying U(15/30) graded Lie group. The baryons are the appropriate supersymmetric partners of…
We present a comprehensive study of anti-triplet charmed baryon decays into octet baryons and pseudoscalar mesons using the $SU(3)_F$ flavor symmetry framework. By decomposing the flavor structure, all decay amplitudes are parametrized with…
We explore the electromagnetic contribution to the charge symmetry breaking in the octet baryon masses using a subtracted dispersion relation based on the Cottingham formula. For the proton-neutron mass splitting we report a minor revision…
I review the recent proposal that there are new isotriplet heavy baryons with masses approximately 2380 MeV and 5760 MeV. This prediction follows from the application of heavy spin-flavor and light $SU(3)$ symmetries to the observed charmed…
We show that the average multiplet masses in the baryon octet and decuplet can be fitted with an average error of only $0.5\pm 0.3$ MeV in a meson loop expansion with chiral SU(6) couplings, with the hadrons treated as composite particles…
We investigate the magnetic moments of the SU(3) octet baryons in the framework of the $SU(3)$ semibosonized Nambu--Jona--Lasinio model. The rotational $1/N_c$ corrections and strange quark mass in linear order are taken into account. We…
The least well-known octet baryon mass is $M_{\Xi^0} = 1314.9 \pm 0.6$ MeV. The prospect of an improved measurement of its mass by the KTeV experimental program at Fermilab, and opportunities for improvements in charged and excited hyperon…
The strange form factors of baryon octet are evaluated, in the chiral models with the general chiral SU(3) group structure, to yield the theoretical predictions comparable to the recent experimental data of SAMPLE Collaboration and to study…
We describe a calculation of the spectrum of flavour-SU(3) octet and decuplet baryons, their parity partners, and the radial excitations of these systems, made using a symmetry-preserving treatment of a vector-vector contact interaction as…
We recalculate masses and widths of anti-decuplet baryons in the case of positive parity from chiral soliton models, provided that the member $\Xi_{3/2}$ of the anti-decuplet has a mass 1.86 GeV as reported recently. Calculations show that…
The masses of the flavor octet and singlet baryons with negative parity and spin 1/2 are calculated using the QCD sum rule. We find that the chiral symmetry breaking vacuum condensates cause the mass splitting of the positive and negative…
