Abstract
The nucleon and its negative-parity excited states are examined in a maximum entropy method analysis of QCD sum rules. We derive the parity projected nucleon sum rules with all known first order αs cor- rections to the Wilson coefficients of the operator product expansion (OPE). As these corrections have turned out to be large, we suppress them by using a phase-rotated Gaussian kernel. This phase rotation strongly sup- presses the continuum contribution and improves the convergence of the OPE. The resulting sum rule has the interesting feature that it is dominated by the term containing the chiral condensate of dimension 3. Analyzing this sum rule by the maximum entropy method, we are able to extract information of both the positive and negative parity states.
