✦ Synopsis
The coupling to light mesons leads to large widths and shifts of the energy of the excited states in the baryon spectrum from the predictions of the constituent quark model with three valence quarks. This coupling may be modeled by admixtures of sea-quark qqq(q q) n configurations in the resonances. A schematic flavor-and spin-dependent interaction model, similar to the one which reproduces the low-lying part of the experimental baryon spectrum in the valence quark model, is shown to bring the lowest qqqq q states with L = 1 and positive parity below the states with L = 0. Because of the partial overlap with the corresponding qqq states this suggests that most of the lowlying states in the baryon-resonance spectrum have substantial qqqq q admixtures.
