The covariant spectator formalism is used to model the nucleon and the $Delta$(1232) as a system of three constituent quarks with their own electromagnetic structure. The definition of the ``fixed-axis polarization states for the diquark emitted from the initial state vertex and absorbed into the final state vertex is discussed. The helicity sum over those states is evaluated and seen to be covariant. Using this approach, all four electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon, together with the {it magnetic} form factor, $G_M^*$, for the $gamma N to Delta$ transition, can be described using manifestly covariant nucleon and $Delta$ wave functions with {it zero} orbital angular momentum $L$, but a successful description of $G_M^*$ near $Q^2=0$ requires the addition of a pion cloud term not included in the class of valence quark models considered here. We also show that the pure $S$-wave model gives electric, $G_E^*$, and coulomb, $G^*_C$, transition form factors that are identically zero, showing that these form factors are sensitive to wave function components with $L>0$.
A possibility of the construction of a periodic table for the excited baryon spectrum is shown in the frame of a relativistic chiral quark model based on selection rules derived from the one-pion exchange mechanism. It is shown that all the $N^*$ and
The covariant parton model is generalized to describe quark correlators in a systematic way. Previous results are reproduced for the T-even leading-twist transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs), and for the first time all T
A convergence of the valence quark self-energies in the 1S, 2S, $1P_{1/2}$, $1P_{3/2}$ orbits induced by pion and gluon field configurations, is shown in the frame of a relativistic chiral quark model. It is shown that in order to reach a convergence
We present a calculation of the three-quark core contribution to the mass of the Delta-baryon in a Poincare-covariant Faddeev framework. A consistent setup for the dressed-quark propagator, the quark-quark and quark-diquark interactions is used, wher
We solve a nonlocal generalisation of the NJL model in the Hartree approximation. This model has a separable interaction, as suggested by instanton models of the QCD vacuum. The choice of form factor in this interaction is motivated by the confining
