Results from a relativistically covariant constituent quark model

� Societa Italiana di Fisica / Springer-Verlag 2008 Abstract. The scope of a relativistically covariant constituent quark model of baryons based on the Bethe- Salpeter equation in instantaneous approximation is illustrated by a discussion of various baryon resonance observables such as static electromagnetic moments —including a novel calculational procedure— form factors and helicity amplitudes, semileptonic decays as well as the systematics of two-body strong decay widths.
