The s-wave interactions of the baryon decuplet with the octet of pseudoscalar mesons is studied in a unitarized coupled channel approach. We obtain a fair agreement for mass and width of several 3/2- resonances. In particular, the Xi(1820),…
The Lambda(1405) baryon resonance plays an outstanding role in various aspects in hadron and nuclear physics. It has been considered that the Lambda(1405) resonance is generated by the attractive interaction of the antikaon and the nucleon,…
In this talk I show recent results on how many excited baryon resonances appear as systems of one meson and one baryon, or two mesons and one baryon, with the mesons being either pseudoscalar or vectors. Connection with experiment is made…
Meson-baryon interactions are the fundamental building blocks to study the structures of baryon resonances and meson properties in few-body nuclear systems. We review the recent progress in the investigation of the meson-baryon interaction…
Light-baryon resonances with u,d, and s quarks only can be classified using the non-relativistic quark model. When we assign to baryon resonances with total angular momenta J intrinsic orbital angular momenta L and spin S we make the…
The spectrum of $\Lambda$ and $\Sigma$ excitations is reviewed taking into account (nearly) all hyperon resonances which were seen in early analyses or in one of the recent partial-wave analyses. The spectrum is compared with the old…
We analyze the electromagnetic form factors of the ground state baryon octet to fourth order in relativistic baryon chiral perturbation theory. Predictions for the \Sigma^- charge radius and the \Lambda-\Sigma^0 transition moment are found…
We examine the radiative decays of the Lambda (1405) to octet baryons, Lambda + gamma and Sigma + gamma. In the limit of SU(3) symmetry the decay rates for these two modes are related, and we compute the leading correction to the relation…
A possibility of the construction of a periodic table for the excited baryon spectrum is shown in the frame of a relativistic chiral quark model based on selection rules derived from the one-pion exchange mechanism. It is shown that all the…
We report on four $\Sigma$'s and three $\Lambda$'s, in the 1500 - 1800 MeV region, as two meson - one baryon S-wave $(1/2)^+$ resonances found by solving the Faddeev equations in the coupled channel approach, which can be associated to the…
A nearest-neighbor analysis of light flavor baryon mass spectra reveals striking degeneracy patterns- narrow mass bands populated by series of parity twins of steadily increasing spins. Each series terminates by an unpaired resonance of the…
We use a consistent SU(6) extension of the meson-baryon chiral Lagrangian within a coupled channel unitary approach in order to calculate the T-matrix for meson-baryon scattering in s-wave. The building blocks of the scheme are the pion and…
