Abstract: (Springer)
We have fitted the masses and elastic widths of the S=0 baryons in the context of the QCD-improved quark shell model. All states in theN=0, 1, 2 and 3 harmonic oscillator bands have been included. Three models for the decay of these states have been studied, and it is concluded that the usual spectator model for the decays must be modified. Many resonances in theN=2 and 3 bands were found to decouple from the πN channel, supporting a previous solution to the missing resonance puzzle. No evidence has been found for the tensor force, while conflicting data exist for the 3-body spin orbit term. We also have found evidence that the contact force varies with band. The (56,1−) multiplet is lower than expected.
