We construct interactions of nucleons N with higher-spin resonances R invariant under point and gauge transformations of the Rarita-Schwinger field. It is found for arbitrarily high spin of a resonance that the requirement of point- and…

We address the issue of consistent interactions for off-shell fermion fields of arbitrary spin. These interactions play a crucial role in the quantum hadrodynamical description of high-spin baryon resonances in hadronic processes. The…

We present an effective field theory of the $\Delta$-resonance as an interacting Weinberg's $(3/2,0)\oplus (0,3/2)$ field in the multi-spinor formalism. We derive its interactions with nucleons $N$, pions $\pi$ and photons $\gamma$, and…

I discuss the problem of consistent interactions of higher-spin fields and its relevance to resonance physics.

Quantization of the free and interacting Rarita-Schwinger field is considered using the Hamiltonian path-integral formulation. The particular interaction we study in detail is the $\pi N \De$ coupling used in the phenomenology of the…

The Rarita-Schwinger equations are generalised for the delta baryon having spin 3/2 and isospin 3/2. The coupling of the nucleon and the delta fields is studied. A possible generalisation of the Walecka model is proposed.

We present a data-supported new interpretation of the Rarita-Schwinger fields which reveals a well-defined pattern in the masses, spins, and parities of the N-, Delta -, and Lambda -hyperon excitations and which allows to probe the scale of…

We investigate the effect of $\Delta$ baryons on the radial oscillations of neutron and hyperon stars, employing a density-dependent relativistic mean-field model. The spin-$3/2$ baryons are described by the Rarita-Schwinger Lagrangian…

We investigate the interactions and chiral properties of the four spin-$\thalf$-baryons : $N^-(D_{13})$, $N^+(P_{13})$, $\Delta^+(P_{33})$ and $\Delta^-(D_{33})$ together with the nucleon. We construct the $SU(2)_R \times SU(2)_L$ invariant…

The Rarita-Schwinger theory of free massive spin-3/2 field obeys the physical degrees of freedom counting, and one can distinguish ``consistent'' couplings which maintain this property and ``inconsistent'' couplings which destroy it. We…

We study the Q^2-evolution of the form factors (FFs) for the nucleon-to-N(1680) transition in the framework of an effective field theory. To this end, the intrinsic symmetries of the spin-5/2 Rarita-Schwinger (RS) fields are analyzed, and a…

We study the 5D Rarita-Schwinger fields to describe spin 3/2 baryons in AdS/QCD. We calculate the spectrum of spin 3/2 baryons (Delta resonances) and their form factors, together with meson-baryon couplings from AdS/QCD. The transition…

We develop a generalized version of heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory to describe pion-nucleon scattering in a kinematic domain that extends continuously from threshold to the delta-isobar peak. The $P$-wave phase shifts are used to…

Utilizing the Foldy-Wouthuysen representation, we use a bottom-up approach to construct heavy-baryon Lagrangian terms, without employing a relativistic Lagrangian as the starting point. The couplings obtained this way feature a…

Gravitational interactions of higher spin fields are generically plagued by inconsistencies. We present a simple framework that couples higher spins to a broad class of gravitational backgrounds (including Ricci flat and Einstein)…

Starting from a relativistic formulation of the pion-nucleon-delta system, the most general structure of 1/M corrections for a heavy baryon chiral lagrangian including spin 3/2 resonances is given. The heavy components of relativistic…

We have constructed a heavy baryon effective field theory with photon as an external field in accordance with the symmetry requirements similar to the heavy quark effective field theory. By treating the heavy baryon and anti-baryon equally…

Making use of the quasi-coherent state developed by Eriksson et al., we can find a nucleon solution accompanied by the pion field with trivial topology. We compare our approach with other related works, and examine a coherent state…

Radiative transitions gamma + Delta(1232) -> N^* are discussed in the nonrelativistic quark model with spin-orbit corrections for the 70-plet L^P=1^- nucleon resonances N^*. The reaction gamma + N -> gamma + Delta is considered as a tool to…

We propose a new, chiral description for massive higher-spin particles in four spacetime dimensions, which facilitates the introduction of consistent interactions. As proof of concept, we formulate three theories, in which higher-spin…
