The S_3 symmetry corresponding to permuting the positions of the quarks within a baryon allows us to study the 70-plet of L=1 baryons without an explicit choice for the spatial part of the quark wave functions: given a set of operators with…
$\Omega^{-}$ baryon with sss quarks has been scarcely observed in the experiments so far and has been exploited through many theoretical studies only. Here, an attempt has been made to explore properties of $\Omega$ with hypercentral…

Evidence has been accumulating for the existence of significant intrinsic non-perturbative five-quark components in various baryons. The inclusion of the five-quark components gives a natural explanation of the excess of $\bar d$ over $\bar…

In the present work, the interacting potential form between quarks inside a baryon is taken to be proportional to the digamma-function. Using the Jacobi-coordinates the three body wave equation is solved to calculate the different states of…
We show how one may define baryon constituent quarks in a rigorous manner, given physical assumptions that hold in the large-N_c limit of QCD. This constituent picture gives rise to an operator expansion that has been used to study…
The structure of the reported excitation spectra of the light unflavored baryons is described in terms of multi-spin valued Lorentz group representations of the so called Rarita-Schwinger (RS) type (K/2, K/2)* [(1/ 2,0)+ (0,1/2)] with…
In the present report, a set of theoretical results obtained in the period from 1991 to 2005 are reviewed. The physical systems under study include quark models of hadrons, inert atom clusters, atomic traps, and electrons and excitons…
We study the relations between low-energy constants (LECs) in the chiral Lagrangians with $\Delta(1232)$ and those in the quark-level description model up to the third chiral order. Ten structure correspondences are involved in getting the…
Making use of numerous resonances discovered by the Crystal Barrel Collaboration we discuss some possible relations between the baryon and meson spectra of resonances composed of the light non-strange quarks. Our goal is to indicate new…
