The masses of the positive parity $[{\bf 70},0^+]$ and $[{\bf 70},2^+]$ non-strange baryons are calculated in large $N_c$ QCD by considering the most dominant operators in an $1/N_c$ expansion. The approach is based on the introduction of…

The properties of baryons can be computed in a systematic expansion in $1/N_c$, where $N_c$ is the number of colors. Recent results on the axial couplings and masses of baryons (for the case of three flavors) are presented. The results give…
