We derive covariant equations describing the three-quark bound state in terms of quark and diquark degrees of freedom. The equations are exact in the approximation where three-body forces are neglected. A feature of these equations is that…
Three-body $AAB$ model for the $NN{\bar K}(s_{NN}=0)$ kaonic cluster is considered based on the configuration space Faddeev equations. Within a single-channel approach, the difference between masses of nucleons and kaons and the charge…
We present a method for treatment of three charged particles. The proposed method has universal character and is applicable both for bound and continuum states. A finite rank approximation is used for Coulomb potential in three-body system…
These lectures contain a theoretical introduction to the few-body problem with short-range resonant binary interactions. In the first part we discuss the effective range expansion for the two-body scattering amplitude emphasizing the role…
Recently it has been argued that a three-body colour confinement interaction can affect the stability condition of a three-quark system and the spectrum of a tetraquark described by any constituent quark model. Here we discuss the role of a…
We calculate higher order corrections for the three-nucleon system up to next-to-next-to-leading within an effective field theory with contact interactions alone. We employ a subtraction formalism previously developed and for which it has…
The electroweak properties of nucleons and hyperons are calculated in a relativistic constituent quark model. The baryons are treated as three quark bound states, and the diagrams of perturbation theory are considered on the light front.…
A Poincar\'e-covariant quark+diquark Faddeev equation is used to develop insights into the structure of the four lightest $(I,J^P=\tfrac{3}{2},\tfrac{3}{2}^\pm)$ baryon multiplets. Whilst these systems can contain isovector-axialvector and…
The $1S$, $2S$, $1P$ and $2P$ states of light baryons are investigated within the chiral quark model, paying particular attention to the well-known order reverse problem of $1P$ and $2S$ states. Besides a nonperturbative linear-screened…
We show that in realistic constituent quark models based on a two-body confinement interaction color states appear in the middle of the experimentally known spectrum. To avoid this situation we implement a three-body confinement…
Based on Lippmann-Schwinger equation approach, we discuss a three-particle system in finite volume. A set of equations which relate the discrete finite-volume energies to the scattering amplitudes are derived under the approximation of the…
Using a generalized Bohr model and the hyper-spherical formalism for a three-body system, we derive the Thomas theorem assuming a simple interaction depending on the range of the potential. We discuss the conditions for which an unbound…
A method has been developed to solve three-particle Faddeev equations in the configuration space making use of a series expansion in hyperspherical harmonics. The following parameters of the bound state of triton and helium-3 nuclei have…
The paper is devoted to the $\bar{K}NNN$ system, which is an exotic system consisting of an antikaon and three nucleons. Dynamically exact four-body Faddeev-type equations were solved and characteristics of the quasi-bound state in the…
A recently developed three-dimensional approach (without partial-wave decomposition) is considered to investigate solutions of Faddeev-Yakubovsky integral equations in momentum space for three- and four-body bound states, with the inclusion…
The comparison of magnetic moments of neutron and proton reveals three possible states of a nucleon each composed of quark plus diquark. In this scheme for the quark content uds there should be three baryons with a different structure:…
In this work we present a method to build in a systematic way a many-body quon basis state. In particular, we show a closed expression for a given number N of quons, restricted to the permutational symmetric subspace, which belongs to the…
We discuss effective field theory treatments of the problem of three particles interacting via short-range forces (range R >> a_2, with a_2 the two-body scattering length). We show that forming a once-subtracted scattering equation yields a…
Within the quark model and hyperspherical method, the bound states of four heavy quarks and antiquarks (tetraquarks) are investigated. In hyperradial approximation, the Schroedinger equation is reduced to a one-dimensional equation after…
Group theoretic method for the systematic study of multi-quark states is developed. The calculation of matrix elements of many body Hamiltonian is simplified by transforming the physical bases (quark cluster bases) to symmetry bases (group…
