Recent Calculations of Electromagnetic and Strong Decays of N*

Abstract

We report on recent calculations of electromagnetic elastic form factors, helicity amplitudes and strong decay widths of N* resonances. The calculations are done in a collective constituent model for the nucleon, in which the resonances are interpreted as rotations and vibrations of an oblate top with a prescribed distribution of charges and magnetization.
