We study certain physical observables of isoscalar heavy baryons using potential models based on hadronic degrees of freedom. The goal is to compare these results with those from an effective theory obtained in a combined heavy quark and…
We treat baryons 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 which…
We find a correspondence between semiclassical QCD quantized on the light-front and a dual gravity model in anti--de Sitter (AdS) space, thus providing an initial approximation to QCD in its strongly coupled regime. This correspondence --…
A perturbative QCD calculation of heavy flavor quark fragmentation into heavy flavor baryons is developed along the lines of corresponding heavy meson models. The non-perturbative formation of the baryon is accomplished by implementing the…

Thanks to the remarkable achievements of LHC, a large database on baryons has been accumulated, so it is believed that the time for precisely studying baryons especially heavy baryons, has come. By analyzing the data, the quark-diquark…
The structure of light diquarks plays a crucial role in the formation of exotic hadrons beyond the conventional quark model, especially in their line shapes of bottomed hadron decays. We study the two-body hadronic weak decays of bottomed…
The structure of the reported excitation spectra of the light unflavored baryons is described in terms of multi-spin valued Lorentz group representations of the so called Rarita-Schwinger (RS) type (K/2, K/2)* [(1/ 2,0)+ (0,1/2)] with…
We classify the hadron light-cone wave-function amplitudes in terms of parton helicity, orbital angular momentum, and quark flavor and color symmetries. We show in detail how this is done for the pion, $\rho$ meson, nucleon, and delta…
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…
Light-Front Hamiltonian theory, derived from the quantization of the QCD Lagrangian at fixed light-front time \tau = t+z/c, provides a rigorous frame-independent framework for solving nonperturbative QCD. The eigenvalues of the light-front…
