We report on a systematic study of the ground-state octet baryon masses in the covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory with the extended-on-mass-shell renormalization scheme up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order, taking into…
The importance of resonances for the radiative hyperon decays is examined in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. Low lying baryon resonances are included into the effective theory and tree contributions to these decays are…
The purpose of my talk is to explain physical backgrounds of the chiral states, which are predicted to exist generally in the low mass regions of hadrons, containing light quarks, and to stimulate the experimental and phenomenological…
The development of chiral perturbation theory in hyperon phenomenology has been troubled due to power-counting subtleties and to a possible slow convergence. Furthermore, the presence of baryon-resonances, e.g. the lowest-lying decuplet,…
We present some piloting calculations of masses and short-range correlation coefficients for the ground states of light and heavy baryons in the framework of the simple approximation within the nonperturbative QCD approach.
The utility of chiral effective field theory, constructed in a manner in which loop contributions are suppressed as one moves outside the power-counting regime, is explored for baryon magnetic moments. Opportunities for the study of…
I discuss the problem of formulating the baryon chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT) in the presence of a light resonance, such as the $\Delta(1232)$, the lightest nucleon resonance. It is shown how to extend the power counting of $\chi$PT…
The paper deals with two issues. First, we explore the quantitiative importance of higher multiplets for properties of the $\Delta$ decuplet in chiral perturbation theory. In particular, it is found that the lowest order one--loop…
That chiral symmetry is a crucial feature of the strong force was realized before the discovery of Quantum Chromodynamics. However, the full power it exerts on the structure of the nucleon became apparent only afterwards. We present a…
Three-quark nucleon interpolating fields in QCD have well-defined SU_L(2) x SU_R(2) and U_A(1) chiral transformation properties. Mixing of the [(1,1/2) + (1/2,1)] chiral multiplet with one of [(1/2,0) + (0,1/2)] or [(0,1/2) + (1/2,0)]…

Chiral perturbation theory and its unitarized versions have played an important role in our understanding of the low-energy strong interaction. Yet, so far, such studies typically deal exclusively with perturbative or nonperturbative…
Exotic antidecuplet baryons are predicted to be not only surprisingly light but also very narrow. First we explain how small decay width arises in the quark soliton model. Next, we study possible mixing of exotic antidecuplet with Roper…
Starting from the multi-local Klein-Gordon equations with Lorentz-scalar squared-mass operator we give a covariant quark representation of the general composite mesons and baryons with definite Lorentz transformation property. The…
The hadronic sector of the standard model at low energies is described by a non--decoupling effective field theory, chiral perturbation theory. An introduction is given to the construction of effective chiral Lagrangians, both in the purely…

Global symmetries and symmetry breaking patterns of QCD with light quarks, in particular chiral symmetry, provide basic guidance not only for low-energy hadron physics but also for nuclear forces and the nuclear many-body problem. Recent…
An analysis is presented of the ground state baryon's (N and \Delta) masses and axial couplings in the combined 1/Nc and chiral expansions. Renormalization and alternative power counting schemes are discussed to one loop (NNLO). An…
