A confining potential model for the light-quark baryons, preserving spontaneously broken chiral symmetry is investigated. In the model the baryon is treated as a three-quark core that is surrounded by a cloud of pions. The quarks are described by the Dirac equation with a linear confining potential. Pion cloud contributions are dealt with in a convergent perturbation formalism up to second order in the interaction. Values for the static properties of the nucleon such as g$\sb{\rm A}$, G$\sb{\pi\rm NN}$, charge radii and magnetic moments and the masses of the nucleon and delta are calculated. Reasonable agreement with the experimental values is obtained. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 49-03, Section: B, page: 0803. / Major Professor: Don Robson. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1987.
