In the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model baryons are either considered as quark-diquark-composites or the soliton configurations of the model are interpreted as baryons. As a first step towards constructing a hybrid model, which possesses a…
Using 805 pb^-1 of e+e- annihilation data taken with the CLEO-c detector at psi(3770), sqrt{s}=3770 MeV, we report the first measurements of the electromagnetic form factors of the Lambda0, Sigma0, Sigma+, Xi0, Xi-, and Omega- hyperons for…
A new analysis is performed in QCD sum rule for the lightest negative parity baryon Lambda (1405). Mixings of three-quark and five-quark Fock components are taken into account. Terms containing up to dimension 12 condensates are computed in…
We show that three-quark axial currents as required by broken SU(6) spin-flavor symmetry reduce the quark spin contribution to proton spin from $\Sigma_p = 1$ (one-quark axial current value) to $\Sigma_p = 0.41(12)$ consistent with the…
The $J/\Psi$ decay into a baryon pair and a pseudoscalar meson is computed, for some channels, in lowest order in perturbative QCD, modeling the baryon with a quark-diquark system. We use a set of parameters that has been proposed by some…
The structure of neutrons, protons, and other strongly interacting particles is now being calculated in full, unquenched lattice QCD with quark masses entering the chiral regime. This talk describes selected examples, including the nucleon…
This work is devoted to the study of diquark correlations inside the nucleon. We analyze some matrix elements which encode information about the non-perturbative forces, in different color anti-triplet diquark channels. We suggest a lattice…
It is demonstrated how an utilization of all existing experimental information on electric and magnetic nucleon form factors, to be described by the Unitary and Analytic (U\&A) nucleon electromagnetic structure model in space-like and…
Beyond the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking scale light and strange baryons should be considered as systems of three constituent quarks with an effective confining interaction and a flavor-spin chiral interaction that is mediated by the…
We develop an extension of the usual three flavor quark model to four flavors (u, d, s and c), and discuss the classification of pentaquark states with hidden charm. We fit our model to the known baryon spectrum and we predict the double…
Pentaquark baryons are a natural expectation of an extended picture of hadrons where quarks and diquarks are the fundamental units. The parity/mass pattern observed, when compared to that of exotic mesons, appears as the footprint of a…
We summarise recent results on the spectrum of ground-state and excited baryons and their form factors in the framework of functional methods. As an improvement upon similar approaches we explicitly take into account the underlying…
The magnetic moments of baryon decuplet are studied in vacuum as well as in the symmetric nuclear matter at finite temperature using a chiral SU(3) quark mean field model approach. The contributions coming from the valence quarks, quark sea…
Besides the ordinary hadrons, QCD allows the existence of states in which excitations of the gluonic field can play the role of valence particles, either alone in a glueball, or coupled to quarks in a hybrid. So, hybrid baryons, made of…
Magnetic moments of $S_{11}(1535)$ and $S_{11}(1650)$ baryons are studied in the framework of the relativistic three-quark Hamiltonian derived in the Field Correlation Method. The baryon magnetic moments are expressed via the average…
We propose that the recently discovered \Theta baryon is a bound state of four quarks and an antiquark, containing two highly correlated ud-pairs. If so, the \Theta baryon has positive parity, and it lies in an near-ideally mixed SU(3)_{f}…
Results for the reaction gamma p --> K+ Lambda, studied within a constituent quark model and a dynamical coupled-channel approach, are presented and compared with recent data. Issues related to the search for missing baryon resonances are…
We derive a $\Lambda \Lambda$ potential from a chiral constituent quark model that has been successful in describing one, two and three nonstrange baryon systems. The resulting interaction at low energy is attractive at all distances due to…
The chiral quark model with a broken U(3) symmetry gives a simple and unified account for the proton spin and flavor puzzles, as well as the octet baryon magnetic moments.
Properties of $\Lambda,~\Xi^0$ hypernuclei and neutron stars are investigated in quark mean field model with pion and gluon corrections. Firstly, $u, ~d$, and $s$ quarks are confined by relativistic harmonic oscillator potentials to…
