Sn. Jena et al., Masses of low-lying baryons in the ground states in a power-law potential model with pseudoscalar meson, one-gluon and centre-of-mass corrections, J PHYS G-NU, 27(2), 2001, pp. 227-241
The masses of low-lying baryons in the ground states are calculated in a re
lativistic potential model of independent quarks taking into account pertur
batively the contribution of the quark-gluon coupling due to one-gluon exch
ange along with that of pseudoscalar meson exchange interaction and that of
centre-of-mass motion. The effective potential representing phenomenologic
ally the non-perturbative,gluon interactions, including the gluon self-coup
lings, is chosen with equally mixed scalar and vector parts in a non-Coulom
bic power-law form. The physical masses of the ground state baryons thus ob
tained with the strong coupling constant alpha (c) = 0.165 agree reasonably
well with the corresponding experimental values.
