Theoretical approaches to hadron physics
Limitations:
Perturbative QCD: only processes with large momentum transferChiral perturbation theory: only small momentaLattice: chiral physics so far inaccessible, processes in Minkowski space inaccessible
Holographic QCD
Chiral physics is critical to understand hadrons, as seen from the uncertainty principle:
When one attempts to measure a quark position to an accuracybetter than the pion Compton wave length of 1.4 fm, one producesa pion, i.e. a pair. Hence, viewing baryons as “made of threequarks” contradicts the uncertainty principle [Landau and Peierls (1931)]
The statement “nucleons are made of three quarks” is kindergarten physics, and we areimmediately punished if we attempt to take it seriously. For example,
1) “spin crisis”: only of the nucleon spin is carried by three valence quarks
2) “mass crisis”: only ¼ of the nucleon term is carried by three valence quarks:

In general, quarks at low momenta are governed by a Dirac Hamiltonian, with all 5 Fermi terms:
The scalar (S), pseudoscalar (P), vector (V), axial (A), and tensor (T) fields have, generally,non-local couplings to quarks, and are fluctuating quantum fields. However, in the limit they can be replaced by the non-fluctuating mean field. cN

Witten (1979): Nc quarks in a baryon can be considered in a mean field(like electrons in a large-Z atom or nucleons in a large-A nucleus).
The mean field is classical
Baryons are heavy objects, with mass .
One-particle excitations in the mean field have energy
Collective excitations of a baryon as a whole have energy

the answer:
splitting inside SU(3) multiplets is , numerically ~140 MeV
splitting between the centers of multiplets is , numerically ~ 230 MeV.
Hence, meaning that one can first put , obtain the degenerate SU(3)multiplets, and only at the final stage account for nonzero , leading to splittinginside multiplets, and mixing of SU(3) multiplets.

What is the symmetry of the mean field?
Variant I (maximal symmetry): the mean field is SU(3)-flavor- and SO(3)-rotation-symmetric,as in the old constituent quark model (Feynman, Isgur, Karl,…) In principle, nothing wrong about it, except that it contradicts the experiment, predicting too many excited states !!In addition, the pion field is strong , and at large Nc must be classical, but there isno way to write the classical pion field in an SU(3) symmetric way!
Variant II : the mean field for the ground state breaks spontaneously SU(3) x SO(3)symmetry down to SU(2) symmetry of simultaneous space and isospin rotations, like in the hedgehog Ansatz
breaks SU(3) and SO(3)separately but supportsSU(2) symmetry of simultaneous spin and isospin rotations !
There is no general rule but we know that most of the heavy nuclei (large A) are not spherically-symmetric. Having a dynamical theory one has to show which symmetryleads to lower ground-state energy.
Since SU(3) symmetry is broken, the mean fields for u,d quarks, and for s quark are completely different – like in large-A nuclei the mean field for Z protons is different from the mean field for A-Z neutrons.
Full symmetry is restored when one SU(3)xSO(3) rotates the ground and one-particle excitedstates there will be “rotational bands” of SU(3) multiplets with various spin and parity.

Ground-state baryon and lowest resonances
This is how the ground-state baryon N(940,1/2+) looks like.
SU(3) and SO(3) rotational excitations of this filling scheme form the lowest baryon multiplets: 1152(8, 1/2+) and 1382(10, 3/2+)
We assume confinement (e.g. ) meaning that the u,d and s spectra are discrete. Some of the components of the mean field (e.g. ) are C or G-odd, meaning that the twospectra are not symmetric with respect to E E
One has to fill in all negative-energy levels for u,d and separately for s quarks, and the lowest positive-energy level for u,d.
~S rV
The lowest resonances beyond the rotational band [Diakonov, JETP Lett. 90, 451 (2009)]
are (1405, ½-), N(1440, ½+) and N(1535, ½-). They are one-particle excitations:
(1405, ½-) and N(1535, ½-) are two differentways to excite an s quark level. N(1535, ½-) isin fact a pentaquark [B.-S. Zou (2008)]
N(1440, ½+) (uud) and (½+) ( ) are two different excitations of the same level of u,d quarks. is an analog of the Gamov-Teller excitation in nuclei! [when a proton is excitedto the neutron’s level or vice versa.]

Theory of rotational bands above one-quark excitations [Victor Petrov and D.D.]
SU(3)xSO(3) symmetry is broken spontaneously by the ground-state mean field, down to SU(2). The full symmetry is restored when one rotates the ground-state baryon and its one-particle excitations in flavor and ordinary spaces. [cf. Bohr and Mottelson…]
Consider a flavor rotation of the mean field by an SU(3) matrix R, and a space rotationby an SU(2) matrix S. If R,S are constant matrices all energy levels remain the same.If R,S are slowly depending on time, one obtains the rotation Lagrangian

2 excited levels for u,d quarks & 2 excited levels for s quarks
seem to be capable of explaining nicely all baryon multiplets < 2 GeV, and predict a couple of new ones, but not as many as the old quark model.
To summarize:
Important: exciting P = -1 levels for u,d quarks is prohibited by Fermi statistics!
Charmed baryons from the large-Nc perspective
If one of the Nc u,d quarks is replaced by c or b quark, the mean field is still the same, andall the levels are the same! Therefore, charmed baryons can be predicted from ordinary ones!

Conclusions
1. Hierarchy of scales: baryon mass ~ Nc one-quark excitations ~ 1 splitting between multiplets ~ 1/Nc mixing, and splitting inside multiplets ~ m_s Nc < 1/Nc
2. The key issue is the symmetry of the mean field : the number of states, degeneracies follow from it. I have argued that the mean field in baryons is not maximal but next-to-maximal symmetric, . Then the number of multiplets and their (non) degeneracy is approximately right.

4. An extension of the same idea, based on large Nc, to charmed (bottom) baryons leads to a prediction of anti-decapenta-plets of pentaquarks. The lightest and are exotic and stable under strong decays, and should be looked for!

If we scan nucleons with a resolution q ~ 600 MeV, only ~65% of nucleons are made of 3 quarks, ~25% are made of 5 quarks, and ~10% of more than 5 quarks.
Nevertheless, the fraction of momentum carried by antiquarks is very small:

Appendix
Additional conclusions
1. “Baryons are made of three quarks” contradicts the uncertainty principle. In fact, already at low resolution ~65% of nucleons are made of 3 quarks, ~25% of 5 quarks, and ~10% of more than 5.
2. The 5-quark component of baryons is rather well understood, and should be measured directly
3. Pentaquarks (whose lowest Fock component has 5 quarks) are not too “exotic” – just Gamov-Teller excitations. In addition to the narrow there is a new prediction of charmed (and bottom) pentaquarks which decay only weakly.
