Exotic baryons have been predicted in the context of the chiral soliton model. These states have been identified with strangeness +1 resonances reported in a number of experiments. In this talk it is pointed out that the technique used to…
Starting from an effective Hamiltonian modelling a baryon made of $N$ identical quarks in the large-$N$ approach of QCD, we obtain analytical formulas allowing to estimate the contributions of multiquark interactions to the baryon mass. The…
We argue that in the large N_c HQET, the masses of the s-wave low-spin heavy baryons equal to the heavy quark mass plus proton mass approximately. To the subleading order, the heavy baryon mass 1/N_c expansion not only has the same form,…
The hyperfine mass splittings of baryons in large $N$ QCD are proved to be proportional to ${\bf J}^2$. Hyperfine mass splittings are first allowed at order $1/N$ in the $1/N$ expansion.
The construction of baryonic operators for determining the N* excitation spectrum is discussed. The operators are designed with one eye towards maximizing overlaps with the low-lying states of interest, and the other eye towards minimizing…
We argue directly from Witten's analysis of large $N_c$ baryons that the structure of the $s$-wave low-spin baryon states in QCD becomes spin-independent as $N_c\rightarrow\infty$. This property leads to $SU(6)$-like behavior of static…
The mass spectra of the $[{\bf 56, 2^+}]$ and $[{\bf 70, \ell+}]$ multiplets, both belonging to the $N$ = 2 band, is reviewed in the $1/N_c$ expansion method. Previous studies, separately made for each multiplet, are presently updated to…
Phenomenological applications of an effective theory of low-lying excited states of charm and bottom isoscalar baryons are discussed at leading and next-to-leading order in the combined heavy quark and large $N_c$ expansion. The combined…
The mass spectrum of charmed and bottom baryons has been computed on anisotropic lattices using quenched lattice nonrelativistic QCD. Masses are extracted by using mass splittings which are more accurate than masses obtained directly by…
We extend the 1/N_c expansion meson-baryon scattering formalism to cases in which the final state contains more than two particles. We first show that the leading-order large N_c processes proceed through resonant intermediate states (e.g.,…
Within the framework of the $1/N_c$ expansion of four-fermion interaction models, we analyse the next to leading $1/N_c$ corrections to the well known large-$N_c$ result $M_S=2M_Q$ where $M_S$ is the mass of the scalar boson and $M_Q$ is…
The results of an exploratory lattice study of heavy baryon spectroscopy are presented. We have computed the full spectrum of the eight baryons containing a single heavy quark, on a $24^3\times 48$ lattice at $\beta=6.2$, using an…
The $1/N_c$ expansion method for studying the mass spectrum of excited baryons is shortly reviewed together with applications to mixed symmetric states. The $[{\bf 70, \ell^+}]$ multiplet, belonging to the $N$ = 2 band, is reanalyzed, with…
We investigate the baryon mass spectrum in quenched lattice QCD with exact chiral symmetry. For 100 gauge configurations generated with Wilson gauge action at $ \beta = 6.1 $ on the $ 20^3 \times 40 $ lattice, we compute (point-to-point)…
Progress in computing the spectrum of excited baryons and mesons in lattice QCD is described. Large sets of spatially-extended hadron operators are used. The need for multi-hadron operators in addition to single-hadron operators is…
The spectrum of the SU(2) flavor baryons is studied in the frame of a relativistic chiral quark potential model based on the one-pion and one-gluon exchange mechanisms. It is argued that the N* and Delta* resonances strongly coupled to the…
The chiral SU(3) Lagrangian with the baryon octet and decuplet fields is considered. The Q^2 counterterms involving the decuplet fields are constructed. We derive the correlation of the chiral parameters implied by the 1/N_c expansion at…
We consider the baryon octet and decuplet magnetic moments in a simultaneous expansion in $m_s$ and $1/N$ taking $N_F / N \sim 1$, where $N$ is the number of QCD colors and $N_F$ is the number of light quark flavors. At leading order in…
We analyze Regge trajectories in terms of the $1/N_c$ expansion of QCD. Neglecting spin-orbit contributions to the large $N_c$ baryon mass operator, we consider the evolution of the spin-flavor singlet component of the masses with respect…
