We present a microscopic description of the strong $\pi NN$, $\pi N\Delta$ and $\pi\Delta\Delta$ vertices. Our starting point is a constituent-quark model supplemented by an additional $3q\pi$ non-valence component. In the spirit of chiral…
The main motivation is to investigate meson properties in the quark model to understand the model applicability and generate possible improvements. Certain modifications to the model are suggested which have been inspired by fundamental QCD…
We underline the general features of the constituent quark model and its success in the description of the spectrum and transitions of hadrons made up of light or heavy quarks, briefly compared to first principles of QCD. To show the…
We discuss recent results on heavy and light baryon spectroscopy
Compared with the charmed baryons, the bottom baryons are not very well known, either experimentally or theoretically. In this paper, we investigate the dipion strong decays of the P-wave and D-wave excited bottom baryons in the framework…
The constituent quark model based on a hypercentral approach takes into account three-body force effects and standard two-body potential contributions. The quark potential contains a hypercentral interaction, to which a hyperfine term is…
