RESEARCH I have studied some aspects of hadron spectroscopy and structure within the formalisms of two different models, the Unquenched Quark Model (UQM) [1–10] and the Interacting Quark-Diquark Model [11–13]. These models make it possible to study observables in hadron physics lying in the non perturbative regime of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the fundamental theory of strong interactions, because the equations of QCD cannot be solved in this regime. The UQM is an extension of the Quark Model (QM), in which the wave function of a hadron consists of a zeroth order configuration, corresponding to the qqq (q q̄) valence quarks, plus a sum over all possible higher Fock components qqq − q q̄ (q q̄ − q q̄), due to the creation of q q̄ pairs. I have used the formalism of the UQM for baryons [4–6] to get results on the strange quark contribution to electromagnetic observables of the proton [5, 6]. These calculations require the introduction of higher Fock components in baryon wave functions (i.e. qqq − q q̄ configurations) to take the contribution of ss̄ sea pairs into account, because the proton has zero strangeness in its valence component. In this way the strange sea quarks contribution to the proton magnetic moment (the strange magnetic moment) and charge radius (the strangeness radius) have been computed [5, 6]. In Ref. [7], I have extended the formalism of the UQM to the meson sector, to calculate the self energies of 1S, 2S and 1P bottomonium states due to the coupling to the meson-meson continuum. In Refs. [8, 9] I have calculated the cc̄ and bb̄ spectra with self energy corrections due to the coupling to the meson-meson continuum. The results are fitted to the experimental data, in such a way that the sum of the bare and self energies gives the values of the physical masses of the states of interest. The bare masses are computed within the relativized QM by Godfrey and Isgur [14]. These calculations make it possible to provide interesting predictions about the nature of still unobserved states, as well as on mesons whose nature is still not clear, like the X(3872) [8, 10] or the χb (3P ) system [9, 10]. The open-flavor decays and radiative transitions of cc̄ [8, 10] and bb̄ [9, 10] resonances have been computed too. The quark-diquark model is a particular kind of QM, where the number of effective degrees of freedom is smaller than in three QMs, since two quarks are strongly correlated to form a diquark. The diquark is thus treated as an effective bosonic degree of freedom [11]. I have developed a relativistic constituent quark-diquark model [12], which is the relativistic reformulation of the Interacting Quark-Diquark Model of Ref. [11], to get results on baryon spectroscopy [12] and on the electromagnetic elastic form factors of the nucleon [13]. [1] S. Ono and N. A. Törnqvist, Z. Phys. C 23, 59 (1984); K. Heikkila, S.
