Quark-diquark approximation of the three-quark structure of baryons in the quark confinement model

Abstract

Octet (1/2+) and decuplet (3/2+) baryons as relativistic three-quark states are investigated using the quark confinement model (QCM), the relativistic quark model, based on some assumptions about hadronization and quark confinement. The quark-diquark approximation of the three-quark, structure of baryons is proposed. In the framework of this approach, the main low-energy characteristics of baryons, such as magnetic moments, electromagnetic radii and form factors, the ratio of axial and vector constants in semileptonic baryon decays, strong form factors and decay widths, are described. The obtained results agree with experimental data.
