Corrections to the masses of baryons from baryon-meson loops can induce splittings between baryons which are comparable to those arising from the residual interactions between the quarks. These corrections are calculated using a…
We present a model of baryonic matter which contains free constituent quarks in addition to bound constituent quarks in nucleons. In addition to the common linear sigma-model we include the exchange of vector-mesons. The percentage of free…
We construct $ {\rm SU(3)}_{\rm L} \otimes {\rm SU(3)}_{\rm R}$ invariant parity doublet models within the linear realization of the chiral symmetry. Describing baryons as the superposition of linear representations should be useful…
We use a variational procedure to study finite density QCD in an approximation in which the interaction between quarks is modelled by that induced by instantons. We find that uniform states with conventional chiral symmetry breaking have…

Modifications of baryon properties due to the restoration of the chiral symmetry in an external hot and dense baryon medium are investigated in an effective chiral quark-meson theory. The nucleon arises as a soliton of the Gell-Mann -…

We study s-wave meson-baryon scattering using the chiral unitary model. We consider $1/2^{-}$ baryon resonances as quasibound states of the low lying mesons ($\pi,K,\eta$) and baryons ($N,\Lambda,\Sigma,\Xi$). In previous works, the…
We have previously calculated the pion-nucleon $\Sigma_{\pi N}$ term in the chiral mixing approach with $u,d$ flavors only, and found the lower bound $\Sigma_{\pi N} \geq \left(1 + \frac{16}{3} \sin^2 \theta \right){3 \over 2}…
We develope the holographic mean field theory approach in a bottom-up holographic QCD model including baryons and scalar mesons in addition to vector mesons and pions. We study the effect of parity doubling structure of baryons at non-zero…
A dynamical investigation of the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction by using the resonating group method (RGM) in a chiral SU(3) quark model has been revisited. The considered quark-quark interaction includes, besides the one-gluon exchange…

The phenomena of confinement and dynamical chiral symmetry breaking are basic to understanding hadron observables. They can be explored using Dyson-Schwinger equations. The existence of a systematic, nonperturbative and symmetry preserving…
Low energy \bar{K}N interactions are studied within Unitary Chiral Perturbation Theory at next-to-leading order with ten coupled channels. We pay special attention to the recent precise determination of the strong shift and width of the…
We investigate the structure of the SU(3) octet and decuplet baryons employing a constituent quark model designed for the study of the baryon-baryon interaction and successfully applied to the meson spectra. The model considers through the…
We calculate the low-lying spectra for the positive-parity $\Delta$ and $N$ at two pion masses of 358 and 278 MeV using an isotropic clover action with two degenerate light-quaark and one strange-quark flavors through the application of the…
We consider the possibility that color deconfinement and chiral symmetry restoration do not coincide in dense baryonic matter at low temperature. As a consequence, a state of massive "constituent" quarks would exist as an intermediate phase…

We calculate the complete $T$ matrices of the elastic nucleon-nucleon scattering up to third order in SU(3) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. The phase shifts with orbital angular momentum $L\geq 2$ and the mixing angles with $J\geq…
The chiral version of the QMC model, in which the effect of gluon and pion exchanges is included self-consistently, is applied to the hyperons in a nuclear medium. The hyperfine interaction due to the gluon exchange plays an important role…
