Nathan Isgur
The study of N*'s can provide us with critical insights into the nature of QCD in the confinement domain. The keys to progress in this domain are the identification of its importan…

Critique of a Pion Exchange Model for Interquark Forces
Nathan Isgur
I describe four serious defects of a widely discussed pion exchange model for interquark forces: it doesn't solve the "spin-orbit problem" as advertised, it fails to describe the i…

Beyond the Adiabatic Approximation: the impact of thresholds on the hadronic spectrum
Nathan Isgur
In the adiabatic approximation, most of the effects of quark-antiquark loops on spectroscopy can be absorbed into a static interquark potential. I develop a formalism which can be…
