The mass spectra of the L=1 orbitally excited heavy baryons with light quarks in both the spin-flavor symmetric and the mixed representations are studied by the $1/N_c$ expansion method in the framework of the heavy quark effective theory.…
We formulate a consistent 1/N_c^2 expansion of the QCD evolution equations for the twist-three quark distributions g_2(x,Q^2), h_L(x,Q^2) and e(x,Q^2) based on the interpretation of the evolution as a three-particle quantum-mechanical…
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…
I discuss recent developments in the large N_c treatment of unstable baryon resonances and the scattering amplitudes in which they appear. These include pion photoproduction, extension to three-flavor processes, decoupling of large N_c…
We consider the perturbative description of saturation based on the nonlinear QCD evolution equation of Balitsky and Kovchegov (BK). Although the nonlinear corrections lead to saturation of the scattering amplitude locally in impact…
In the large Nc limit, the mass spectrum of the L=1 orbitally excited baryons N* has a very simple structure, with states degenerate in pairs of spins J=(1/2,3/2), (3/2,5/2), corresponding to irreducible representations (towers) of the…
The masses of baryons and heavy quark baryons are studied analytically in an expansion in 1/N, SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking and heavy-quark symmetry breaking. The measured baryon masses are in striking agreement with the 1/N hierarchy.
We study excited baryon decay widths in large N_c QCD. It was suggested previously that some spin-flavor mixed-symmetric baryon states have strong couplings of O(N_c^{-1/2}) to nucleons [implying narrow widths of O(1/N_c)], as opposed to…
This paper studies baryons and baryonic matter in the combined large N_c and heavy quark mass limits of QCD in 1+1 dimension. In this non-relativistic limit, baryons are composed of N_c quarks that interact, at leading order in N_c, through…
We investigate the consequences of a non-negligible baryon fraction for models of structure formation in Cold Dark Matter dominated cosmologies, emphasizing in particular the existence of oscillations in the present-day matter power…
The $I=0,1,2,3$ mass splittings of the spin-$1/2$ octet and spin-$3/2$ decuplet baryons are analyzed in the $1/\N$ expansion combined with perturbative flavor breaking. We show there is considerable experimental evidence that the baryon…
We analyze excited baryon properties via a 1/N_c expansion from two perspectives: as resonances in meson-nucleon scattering, and as single-quark excitations in the context of a simple quark model. For both types of analysis one can derive…

Much work has been devoted to the study of nonstrange baryons belonging to the $[\textbf{70},1^-]$ multiplet in the framework of the $1/N_c$ expansion. Using group theoretical arguments here we examine the relation between the exact wave…
We review the spectrum and electromagnetic properties of baryons described as relativistic three-quark bound states within QCD. The composite nature of baryons results in a rich excitation spectrum, whilst leading to highly non-trivial…
We derive a (1+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation (NLE) which may model the propagation of high-frequency perturbations in a relaxing medium. As a result, this equation may possess three typical solutions depending on a dissipative…
