Spectroscopy of Light Baryons: $\Delta$ Resonances

Abstract

The spectroscopy of light, strange baryons have been an important aspect with still unknown resonances and intrinsic baryonic properties. The present document is focused on the $\Delta$ baryons unlike earlier work, here all the four isospin states have been separately obtained treating u and d quarks with different constituent masses. The theoretical framework for calculating the resonance masses is hypercentral Constituent Quark Model (hCQM). The confining potential is taken as of linear form alongwith the addition of spin-dependent as well as first order correction term. The results obtained have been compared with many varied approaches as well as experimental available states. In addition to mass spectra, Regge trajectories for (n,$M^{2}$) and (J,$M^{2}$) have been plotted. The magnetic moment as well as transition magnetic moment have been calculated using effective quark mass. The radiative decay width has been studied for $\Delta^{+}$ and $\Delta^{0}$ channels.
