Quark model description of baryon properties

The goal of this project was a systematic calculation, consistent with the mass spectrum, of electroweak properties of baryons, as well as of the hadronic two-body decays of baryon resonances. The basis of the calculations was a relativistically covariant quark model for mesons and baryons, which allows for the calculation of (momentum dependent) hadronic form factors and coupling vertices in the relevant photon and hadron induced reactions and simultaneously describes the hadronic mass spectrum up to 3 GeV.
