Abstract
A Poincaré-covariant Faddeev equation is used to develop insights into the structure of the four lightest baryon multiplets. While these systems can contain isovector-axialvector and isovector-vector diquarks, one may neglect the latter and still arrive at a reliable description. The states are the simpler systems, with features that bear some resemblance to quark model pictures, e.g., their most prominent rest-frame orbital angular momentum component is -wave and the may reasonably be viewed as a radial excitation of the . The states are more complex: the expresses little of the character of a radial excitation of the ; and while the rest-frame wave function of the latter is predominantly -wave, the leading piece in the wave function is -wave, in conflict with quark model expectations. Experiments that can test these predictions, such as large momentum transfer resonance electroexcitation, may shed light on the nature of emergent hadron mass.
