Abstract: | A short review is presented of the spontaneous violation of chiral symmetry in QCD vacuum. It is demonstrated that this phenomenon
is the origin of baryon masses in QCD. The value of nucleon mass is calculated, as well as the masses of hyperons and some
baryonic resonances, and expressed mainly through the values of quark condensates— , q = u, d, s,—the vacuum expectation values (v.e.v.) of quark field. The concept of v.e.v. induced by external fields is introduced. It
is demonstrated that such v.e.v. induced by static electromagnetic field results in quark condensate magnetic susceptibility,
which plays the main role in determination of baryon magnetic moments. The magnetic moments of proton, neutron, and hyperons
are calculated. The results of calculation of baryon octet β-decay constants are also presented.
