Balmer-Like Series for Baryon Resonances

Abstract

The pole positions of various baryon resonances have been found to reveal a well pronounced clustering, the so-called H"ohler cluster. In a previous work, the H"ohler clusters have been shown to be identical to Lorentz multiplets of the type (1/2+l', 1/2+l')*[(1/2,0)+(0,1/2)] with l' integer. Here we show that the cluster positions are well described by means of a Balmer-series like recursive mass formula.
