We review the spectrum of all baryons with the mass less than approximately 2000-2200 MeV using methods based on the approximate flavor SU(3) symmetry of the strong interaction. The application of the Gell-Mann--Okubo mass formulas and…
Motivated by the recent surprising discovery of two new meson states with c s-bar quark content but unexpectedly low masses and narrow total decay widths, we work out, in a nonrelativistic potential-model approach developed already some two…
There are striking regularities in the masses and mass differences of known hadrons. Some of these regularities can be understood from known general properties of the interactions of quarks without a need to specify the explicit form of the…
The Feynman-Hellmann theorem and semiempirical mass formulas are used to predict the masses of baryons containing one or two heavy quarks. In particular, the mass of the $\Lambda_b$ is predicted to be $5620 \pm 40$ MeV, a value consistent…
A simple quark-diquark model for the baryons is constructed as a partial solution to the well known missing resonances problem. A complete classification of the baryonic states in the quark-diquark framework is given and the spectrum is…
The masses of the charmed baryons in the ${\bf 6}$ representation of $SU(3)$ obey an equal spacing rule at lowest order in $SU(3)$ breaking, ${\cal O}(m_s)$. We compute the corrections to this relation at order ${\cal O}(m_s^{3/2})$ arising…
By looking at the complex plane of the pion-mass squared we establish a dispersion relation which the static quantities, such as baryon masses, magnetic moments, polarizabilities, should obey. This dispersion relation yields insight into…
We present results on the masses of the low-lying baryons using ten ensembles of gauge configurations with $N_f =2+1+1$ dynamical twisted mass fermions, at three values of the lattice spacing, spanning a pion mass range from about 210 MeV…
Masses of singly and doubly charmed baryons are calculated in quenched lattice QCD using an improved action of the D234 type on an anisotropic lattice. The mass differences between spin 3/2 and spin 1/2 baryon states are calculated and…
We extend the chromomagnetic model by further considering the effect of color interaction. The effective mass parameters between quark pairs ($m_{qq}$ or $m_{q\bar{q}}$) are introduced to account both the effective quark masses and the…
Light-baryon resonances (with u,d, and s quarks in the SU(3) classification) fall on Regge trajectories. When their squared masses are plotted against the intrinsic orbital angular momenta {\rm L}, $\Delta^*$'s with even and odd parity can…
We use the Field Correlator Method in QCD to calculate the masses of $\Sigma_c$, $\Xi_c$ and recently observed $\Sigma_b$, $\Xi_b$ baryons and their orbital excitations.
Model independent sum rules for heavy baryon masses are tested for baryons containing charmed or bottom quarks. The sum rules depend only on the assumption that baryon mass differences are determined by spin-dependent two-body energies of…
The mass formulae for the supernarrow dibaryons and the exotic baryons with small masses are consructed. With this aim their self energies are calculated in one loop approximation using the dispersion relations with two subtractions. The…
New data of narrow low mass unflavoured mesonic structures are presented. A table of these exotic masses is obtained adding previously published data. The mass sequence shows a significant coupling of some of these clusters with stable…
Relations between bulk mass parameters for fermions propagating in higher dimensions are studied in analogy with the empirical mass relation for charged leptons. Masses of three generation of four-dimensional charged leptons are achieved…
The relativistic quantum string quark model, proposed earlier, is applied to all mesons, from pion to $\Upsilon$, lying on the leading Regge trajectories (i.e., to the lowest radial excitations in terms of the potential quark models). The…
The total decay widths of the charmed baryons are calculated by means of the $^3P_0$ model. Our calculations consider in the final states: the charmed baryon-(vector/pseudoscalar) meson pairs and the (octet/ decuplet)…
Predictions of unknown heavy baryon masses based on an expansion in $1/m_Q$, $1/N_c$ and $SU(3)$ breaking are updated to take into account a recent measurement of the $\Sigma_c^*$ mass. Values are given for the two remaining unknown charm…
Baryon mass splittings are analyzed in terms of a simple model with general pairwise interactions. At present, the $\Delta$ masses are poorly known from experiments. Improvement of these data would provide an opportunity to make a…
