Electromagnetic properties of baryons in a relativistic quark model

Results on electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon and photon transition form factors of non-strange baryon resonances calculated in a relativistically covariant quark model based on the Bethe-Salpeter equation are presented. The relevance of the instanton-induced quark interaction on these properties is discussed.Received: 30 September 2002, Published online: 22 October 2003PACS: 11.10.St Bound and unstable states; Bethe-Salpeter equations - 12.39.Ki Relativistic quark model - 12.40.Yx Hadron mass models and calculations - 13.40.Gp Electromagnetic form factors
