Orbitally Excited Baryon Spectroscopy in the 1/nc Expansion
نویسنده
چکیده
The discussion of the 70-plet of negative parity baryons illustrates the large Nc QCD approach to orbitally excited baryons. In the case of the ` = 1 baryons the existing data allows to make numerous predictions to first order in the SU(3) symmetry breaking. New relations between splittings are found that follow from the spin-flavor symmetry breaking. The Λ(1405) is well described as a three-quark state and a spin-orbit partner of the Λ(1520). Singlet states with higher orbital angular momentum ` are briefly discussed.

EXCITED HEAVY BARYON MASSES FROM THE 1/Nc EXPANSION OF HQET
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/Nc expansion method in the framework of the heavy quark effective theory. The mixing effect between the baryons in the two representations is also considered. The general pattern of the spectrum is predicted which will be verified b...

The physics of the orbitally excited baryons simplifies drastically in the large Nc limit. The states are arranged into irreducible representations of the contracted SU(4)c symmetry, with mixing angles determined exactly. The ratios of the strong couplings N∗ → [Nπ ]S,D are predicted in this limit, with results in agreement with those following from the quark model (with the large Nc mixing ang...
متن کاملPole versus Breit-Wigner resonance description of the orbitally excited baryons
We consider the masses used in recent studies involving the nonstrange sector of the l = 1 baryons. The use of T -matrix and K-matrix poles versus the conventional Breit-Wigner masses is discussed within the context of a large-Nc fitting scheme. While the mass and charge of a particle are typically the easiest quantities to determine experimentally, the proper way to define and extract the mass...
متن کاملBARYON CHIRAL PERTURBATION THEORY IN THE 1/Nc EXPANSION
The chiral Lagrangian for baryons is formulated in an expansion in 1/Nc. The chiral Lagrangian implements the contracted spin-flavor symmetry of large-Nc baryons as well as nonet symmetry of the leading planar diagrams. Large-Nc consistency conditions ensure that chiral loop corrections are suppressed in 1/Nc through exact cancellation of chiral loop graphs to fixed orders in 1/Nc. Application ...
