Baryons as relativistic three-quark bound states

G Eichmann, H Sanchis-Alepuz, R Williams… - Progress in Particle and …, 2016 - Elsevier
We review the spectrum and electromagnetic properties of baryons described as relativistic
three-quark bound states within QCD. The composite nature of baryons results in a rich …

The pion: an enigma within the Standard Model

T Horn, CD Roberts - Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Quantum chromodynamics (QCDs) is the strongly interacting part of the Standard Model. It is
supposed to describe all of nuclear physics; and yet, almost 50 years after the discovery of …

Colloquium: Roper resonance: Toward a solution to the fifty year puzzle

VD Burkert, CD Roberts - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2019 - APS
Discovered in 1963, the Roper resonance appears to be an exact copy of the proton except
that its mass is 50% greater and it is unstable. These features of the Roper have been very …

Completing the picture of the Roper resonance

J Segovia, B El-Bennich, E Rojas, IC Cloët… - Physical Review Letters, 2015 - APS
We employ a continuum approach to the three valence-quark bound-state problem in
relativistic quantum field theory to predict a range of properties of the proton's radial …

Natural constraints on the gluon-quark vertex

D Binosi, L Chang, J Papavassiliou, SX Qin… - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
In principle, the strong-interaction sector of the standard model is characterized by a unique
renormalization-group-invariant (RGI) running interaction and a unique form for the dressed …

Symmetry preserving truncations of the gap and Bethe-Salpeter equations

D Binosi, L Chang, J Papavassiliou, SX Qin… - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
Ward-Green-Takahashi (WGT) identities play a crucial role in hadron physics, eg imposing
stringent relationships between the kernels of the one-and two-body problems, which must …

Structure of the nucleon's low-lying excitations

C Chen, B El-Bennich, CD Roberts, SM Schmidt… - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
A continuum approach to the three valence-quark bound-state problem in quantum field
theory is used to perform a comparative study of the four lightest (I= 1/2, JP= 1/2±) baryon …

Gravitational form factors of pseudoscalar mesons in a contact interaction

MA Sultan, Z **ng, K Raya, A Bashir, L Chang - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
Given the unique role played by the gravitational form factors (GFFs) in unraveling the
internal mechanics of hadrons, we examine the GFFs of ground state pseudoscalar mesons …

Heavy flavor-asymmetric pseudoscalar mesons on the light front

C Shi, P Liu, YL Du, W Jia - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We extract the leading Fock-state light front wave functions of heavy flavor-asymmetric
pseudoscalar mesons D, B, and B c from their Bethe-Salpeter wave functions, based on the …

Kaon and pion parton distribution amplitudes to twist three

C Shi, C Chen, L Chang, CD Roberts, SM Schmidt… - Physical Review D, 2015 - APS
We compute all kaon and pion parton distribution amplitudes (PDAs) to twist three and find
that only the pseudotensor PDA can reasonably be approximated by its conformal limit …
