One of the remaining challenges within the standard model is to gain a good understanding of QCD in the non-perturbative regime. One key step toward this aim is baryon spectroscopy, investigating the spectrum and the properties of baryon…
The ratios between different baryonic species masses are studied. The result is used to tentatively predict some missing baryonic masses, still not experimentally observed.
The coupling to light mesons leads to large widths and shifts of the energy of the excited states in the baryon spectrum from the predictions of the constituent quark model with three valence quarks. This coupling may be modelled by…
