We study meson loop corrections to the baryon magnetic moments starting from a QCD-based quark model derived earlier in a quenched approximation to QCD. The model reproduces the standard quark model with extra corrections for the binding of…
We compute the mass spectrum for strange/charmed baryons in the partially quenched approach using N_f=2 twisted mass QCD configurations. We investigate two main issues: the size of lattice artefacts using three values of the lattice spacing…

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…
The masses of octet baryons are calculated by the method of QCD sum rules. Using generalized interpolating fields, three independent sets of QCD sum rules are derived which allow the extraction of low-lying N* states with spin-parity 1/2+,…
We extend to quenched QCD an earlier investigation of the chiral structure of the masses of the nucleon and the delta in lattice simulations of full QCD. Even after including the meson-loop self-energies which give rise to the leading and…
From only two elementary quarks ($\epsilon_{u}(0) $ and $\epsilon_{d}(0)) $ and the symmetries of the regular rhombic dodecahedron, using phenomenological formulae, we deduced the rest masses and the intrinsic quantum numbers (I, S, C, b…
Sum rules relating the masses of ground-state baryons and mesons are obtained in a constituent quark model. The interaction is assumed to be independent of quark spins except for a spin-dependent part that can be treated as a perturbation.…
