The discussion of the 70-plet of negative parity baryons illustrates the large Nc QCD approach to orbitally excited baryons. In the case of the l=1 baryons the existing data allows to make numerous predictions to first order in the SU(3)…
SU(3) symmetry relations between the octet baryons are introduced in order to connect both the unpolarized and polarized quark distributions of the octet baryons with those of the nucleon. Two different parametrizations of the nucleon quark…
In this talk, we show our recent theoretical results for three-body systems in the charm sector which are made of three hadrons and contain one nucleon, one $D$ meson and in addition another meson, $\bar{D}$, $K$ or $\bar{K}$.
The magnetic moments of ground state single, double and triple heavy baryons containing charm or bottom quarks are calculated in a relativistic three-quark model, which, in the heavy quark limit, is consistent with Heavy Quark Effective…
We discuss the magnetic moments of the recently discovered exotic baryons Theta(+) and Xi(--) and their multiplet partners in the framework of a naive additive quark model. These baryons are set up as pentaquark states where four quarks and…
Quantum spin systems exhibit an enormous range of collective excitations, but their spin waves, gapped triplons, fractional spinons, or yet other modes are generally held to be mutually exclusive. Here we show by neutron spectroscopy on…
Treating baryons as quark + interacting-diquark bound states, a symmetry-preserving formulation of a vector$\,\times\,$vector contact interaction (SCI) is used to deliver an extensive, coherent set of predictions for $\Lambda, \Sigma^0$…
We calculate masses of light and heavy mesons as well as baryons of negative parity containing $u,d,s,c$ and $b$ quarks. It is an extension of our previous work where we had studied the positive parity baryons. We adopt a quark-diquark…
A new model for the substructure of quarks, leptons and weak gauge bosons is discussed. It is based on three fundamental and absolutely stable spin-1/2 preons. Its preon flavour SU(3) symmetry leads to a prediction of nine quarks, nine…
We report on recent results of the QCDSF/UKQCD Collaboration on investigations of baryon structure using configurations generated with N_f=2+1 dynamical flavours of O(a) improved Wilson fermions. With the strange quark mass as an additional…
The light-quark sector of the Lambda(1405) baryon is examined in the context of the recent discovery of a dominant antikaon-nucleon composition at low quark masses. Further evidence for this interpretation of the Lambda(1405) is presented,…
We review the status as regards the existence of three- and four-body bound states made of neutrons and $\Lambda$ hyperons. For interesting cases, the coupling to neutral baryonic systems made of charged particles of different strangeness…
We analyze what consequences has the observation of exotic pentaquark baryons on the location of the non-exotic baryons belonging to the antidecuplet. We suggest that there must be a new nucleon state at 1650-1690 MeV and a new Sigma baryon…
Mass differences between octet strange baryons, octet and decuplet strange baryons, and nonet vector mesons and octet baryons of equal strangeness coincide (within the small experimental uncertainties) with the levels of a recently proposed…
Light-baryon resonances (with u,d, and s quarks in the SU(3) classification) fall on Regge trajectories. When their squared masses are plotted against the intrinsic orbital angular momenta {\rm L}, $\Delta^*$'s with even and odd parity can…
We discuss the agreement in sign between the recently measured strange contribution to the proton magnetic moment and SU(3) based fits to baryon octet magnetic moments.
Magnetic moments of the octet baryons are computed using lattice QCD in background magnetic fields, including the first treatment of the magnetically coupled Sigma-Lambda system. Although the computations are performed for relatively large…
The flavor asymmetry of the nucleon sea, i.e., the excess of $d\bar{d}$ quark-antiquark pairs over $u\bar{u}$ ones in the proton can be explained by several different models; therefore, it is a challenge to discriminate these models from…
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…
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…
