The spectra of leading and nonleading charmed baryons ($\Lambda_c$ and $\bar{\Lambda}_c$) as well as the asymmetries between these spectra measured in $\Sigma^-A$, $\pi^-A$ and pA collisions at $p_L= 600 GeV/c$ in the E781 experiment are…
We obtain the masses, the electromagnetic properties, and the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of $\Lambda$, $\Lambda_c$, and their isospin triplet baryons, i.e, $\Sigma^0$, $\Sigma^+$, $\Sigma^-$ and $\Sigma_c^0$, $\Sigma_c^+$,…
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 study $\Lambda$ baryons of spin-parity $\frac{1}{2}^{\pm}$ with either a strange or charm valence quark in full 2+1 flavor lattice QCD. Multiple $SU(3)$ singlet and octet operators are employed to generate the desired single baryon…
We introduce spin-1/2 baryons in the string+${}^3P_0$ model of hadronization, previously restricted to the production of pseudoscalar and vector mesons. Baryons are modeled as quark-diquark bound states and baryon production is described by…
Using recently derived results for one-loop hadronic splitting functions from a nonlocal implementation of chiral effective theory, we study the contributions from pseudoscalar meson loops to flavor asymmetries in the proton. Constraining…
An important goal of ongoing and future experiments is to explore spectra and transition form factors of baryons with non-zero strangeness. Of particular interest is the transition form factor$\gamma^{(*)} \Sigma^0 \rightarrow \Lambda$ in…
Lattice quantum chromodynamics is used to constrain the interactions of two octet baryons at the SU(3) flavor-symmetric point, with quark masses that are heavier than those in nature (equal to that of the physical strange quark mass and…
We study the measurement of the quark fragmentation functions for spin-1/2 baryon production ($\Lambda$ and $\bar \Lambda$, in particular) in unpolarized $e^+e^-$ annihilation. The spin-dependent fragmentation functions $\hat g_1(z)$ and…
We calculate the shape of the $\pi\Sigma$ and $\bar K N$ invariant mass distributions in the $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi\, \pi\Sigma$ and $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi \,\bar K N$ decays that are dominated by the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance. The weak…
In this work, we investigate the color-spin interaction of a quark, a diquark and a baryon with their surrounding baryons and/or quark matter. We extend our previous work by increasing the maximum number of surrounding baryons to 5 and…
The wave functions in the diquark-quark model for baryons are modified to take into account the effect of the different masses of the quarks in diquark formation. A spatial wave function is introduced multiplying each flavour-spin…
ChPT and the $1/N_c$ expansion provide systematic frameworks for the strong interactions at low energy. A combined framework of both expansions has been developed and applied for baryons with three light-quark-flavors. The small scale…
The scattering of a baryon consisting of three massive quarks is investigated in the high energy limit of perturbative QCD. A model of a relativistic proton-like wave function, dependent on valence quark longitudinal and transverse momenta…
The description of baryons as soliton solutions of effective meson theories for three flavor (up, down, strange) degrees of freedom is reviewed and the phenomenological implications are illuminated. In the collective approach the soliton…
The splittings between the spin 1/2 and spin 3/2 iso-singlet baryons Lambda_s(1405) and Lambda_s(1520), and their charmed counterparts Lambda_c(2593) and Lambda_c(2625), have been a theoretical conundrum. Here we investigate the possibility…
Within an extended chiral constituent quark formalism, we investigate contributions from all possible five-quark components in the octet baryons to the pion-baryon ($\sigma_{\pi B}$) and strangeness-baryon ($\sigma_{s B}$) sigma terms; $B…
Currently, there is much controversy surrounding the interpretation of the $\Xi(2030)$ and $\Xi(2012)$ as traditional hadrons containing double strange quarks. In particular, the ratios of the partial decay widths into $\Lambda\bar{K}$ and…
Using a simple quark-diquark model, we extract a set of unpolarized and polarized fragmentation functions for the $\Lambda$ based on the available unpolarized $\Lambda$ production data in $e^+ e ^- $ annihilation. It is found that there is…
We describe a calculation of the spectrum of strange and nonstrange hadrons that simultaneously correlates the dressed-quark-core masses of meson and baryon ground- and excited-states within a single framework. The foundation for this…
