A family of simply solvable covariant quark models for the baryons is presented. With optimal parameter choices the models reproduce the empirical spectra of the baryons in all flavor sectors to an accuracy of a few percent. Complete…
We continue our attempts to systematize baryons, which are composed of light quarks ($q=u,d$), as quark--diquark systems. The notion of two diquarks is used: (i) $D^{1}_{1}$, with the spin $S_D=1$ and isospin $I_D=1$ and (ii) $D^{0}_{0}$,…
We present an analysis of the octet baryon masses and the $\pi N$ and $KN$ $\sigma$--terms in the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. At next-to-leading order, ${\cal O}(q^3)$, knowledge of the baryon masses and…
The properties of four quark cn - nbar cbar states are investigated as cn di-quark and nbar cbar di-antiquark system in U(12)-classification scheme of hadrons, recently proposed by us. We consider the negative-parity di-quark and…
We study the conjectured "Insensitivity to Chiral Symmetry Breaking" in the highly excited light baryon spectrum. While the experimental spectrum is being measured at JLab and CBELSA/TAPS, this insensitivity remains to be computed…
Physics of the low-lying and high-lying hadrons in the light flavors sector is reviewed. While the low-lying hadrons are strongly affected by both $U(1)_A$ and spontaneous $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R$ breakings, in the high-lying hadrons these…
The spectra of the nucleons, $\Delta$ resonances and the strange hyperons are well described by the constituent quark model if in addition to the harmonic confinement potential the quarks are assumed to interact by exchange of the $SU(3)_F$…
We have calculated the mass spectra of nucleon and delta hybrid baryons with both positive-parity and negative-parity by using the method of QCD sum rules. We predicte that the lowest-lying hybrid baryons are the negative-parity $N_{1/2^-}$…
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…
In the heavy quark limit, there are three independent strong axial coupling constants in chiral Lagrangians for ground-state heavy hadrons: g in the meson sector, and g_1, g_2 in the baryon sector. The coupling g_2 is extracted from recent…
We revisit the mass splittings of SU(3) baryons, taking into account the second-order effects of isospin and SU(3) flavor symmetry breakings within the framework of a chiral soliton model. The masses of the baryon decuplet turn out to be…
The level classification of quark-antiquark systems is generally made by the LS-coupling scheme, resorting to the non-relativistic quark model. However, it has been well known that the pi-meson with the (L,S)=(0,0) shows also the properties…
We extend the $D4$-$D8$ holographic construction to include three chiral and one heavy flavor, to describe heavy-light baryons with strangeness and their exotics. At strong coupling, the heavy meson always binds to the bulk instanton in the…
We study the possibility that four iso-singlet baryons $\Lambda_s(1405)$ $J^P=1/2^{-}$, $\Lambda_s(1520)$ $J^P=3/2^{-}$, $\Lambda_c(2593)$ $J^P=1/2^{-}$ and $\Lambda_c(2625)$ $J^P=3/2^{-}$ are hybrids: three quark one gluon states (udsg).…
Starting from the bi-local Klein-Gordon Equation with spin-independent squared-mass operator, we give a covariant quark representation of general composite meson systems with definite Lorentz transformation properties. For benefit of this…
The discovery of $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by the LHCb Collaboration triggers predictions of more doubly charmed baryons. By taking into account both the $P$-wave excitations between the two charm quarks and the scattering of light pseudoscalar…

We perform a preliminary study of the 1/2+ and 3/2+ ground-state baryons containing a heavy quark in the framework of the chiral SU(3) quark model. By using the calculus of variations, masses of Lambda_Q, Sigma_Q, Xi_Q, Omega_Q, Sigma_Q^*,…
We show that the average multiplet masses in the baryon octet and decuplet can be fitted with an average error of only $0.5\pm 0.3$ MeV in a meson loop expansion with chiral SU(6) couplings, with the hadrons treated as composite particles…
