The positive-parity nucleon spectrum is explored in $2 + 1$-flavour lattice QCD in a search for new low-lying energy eigenstates near the energy regime of the Roper resonance. In addition to conventional three-quark operators, we consider…
In many reactions leading to excitations of the nucleon the Roper resonance $N^*(1440)$ can be sensed only by complex partial-wave analyses. In nucleon-nucleon collisions the isoscalar single-pion production as well as specific two-pion…
Two-photon collisions at the e$^+$e$^-$ colliders allow to investigate the formation and the properties of resonant states in a very clean experimental environment. A remarkable number of new results have been recently obtained giving…
It is proposed that meson resonances are linear combinations of q-qbar and meson-meson (MM); baryon resonances are combinations of qqq and meson-baryon (MB). Mixing between these combinations arises via decays of confined states to…
We present the results of the first calculations involving the interaction of vector mesons with baryons, by means of which one generates a large amount of dynamically generated resonances, many of which can be associated to known…
We study the three-body decay of the newly observed bottom baryon $\Lambda_b^*(6072)$ by LHCb; $\Lambda_b^*(6072) \to \Lambda_b \pi \pi$. Its mass about 500 MeV above the ground state $\Lambda_b$ and a broad width imply that the state could…
The meson-baryon molecular components for the $N^{\ast}$ and $\Delta ^{\ast}$ resonances are investigated in terms of the compositeness, which is defined as the norm of the two-body wave function from the meson-baryon scattering amplitudes.…
We discuss baryon resonances which are dynamically generated in hadron dynamics based on chiral coupled channels approach. With the dynamical description of the baryon resonance, we discuss the origin of the resonance pole, finding that for…
Recently, the Weinberg compositeness condition of a bound state was generalized to account for resonant states and higher partial waves. We apply this extension to the case of the $\Lambda(1520)$ resonance and quantify the weight of the…
Light scalar mesons can be understood as dynamically generated resonances. They arise as 'companion poles' in the propagators of quark-antiquark seed states when accounting for hadronic loop contributions to the self-energies of the latter.…
Properties of the Roper resonance, the first scalar excitation of the nucleon, are determined. Pole positions and residues of the $P_{11}$ partial wave are studied in a combined analysis of pion- and photo-induced reactions. We find the…
Sixty years ago, the first excited state of a proton/neutron was ``born.'' During this time, we learned a lot about it, specifically - how unique this case is: a single resonance with two pole positions on different Riemann sheets. Let me…
In a previous investigation, a model of three-body motion was developed which included the effects of gravitational radiation reaction. The aim was to describe the motion of a relativistic binary pulsar that is perturbed by a third mass and…
We present a unified desciption of the low-lying $1P$- and $2S$-wave nucleon resonance within the framework of an extended Lee-Friedrichs scheme. By incorporating the coupled-channel dynamics between bare quark-model states and the $\pi N$,…
We discuss coexistence/mixing of different natures of hadronic composite (molecule) and elementary (quark-intrinsic) ones in hadron resonances. The discussions here are based on our previous publications on the origin of hadron resonances…
A pedagogical review of the past 50 years of study of resonances, leading to our understanding of the quark content of baryons and mesons. The level of this review is intended for undergraduates or first-year graduate students. Topics…
The study of the spectrum of excited states of the nucleon is vital to our understanding of how QCD is realized in the baryon spectrum. Using a simultaneous analysis of the pion nucleon scattering data up to 2 GeV as well as the results of…
We present results for the first positive parity excited state of the nucleon, namely, the Roper resonance ($N^{{{1/2}}^{+}}$=1440 MeV) from a variational analysis technique. The analysis is performed for pion masses as low as 224 MeV in…

The Roper resonance, the first excited state of the nucleon, Is one of the best-established baryon resonances. Yet, its properties have not been consistently explained by effective models of QCD, such as the non-relativistic quark model. In…
