Quark model description of hadrons
Abstract
In this contribution I will try to give an overview of what has been achieved in constituent quark models of mesons and baryons by a comparison of some selected results from various ansaetze with experimental data. In particular I will address the role of relativistic covariance, the nature of the effective quark forces, the status of results on electromagnetic and strong-decay observables beyond the mere mass spectra, as well as some unresolved issues in hadron spectroscopy.
