N*(1440) Intrinsic excitation of Nucleon at energy around 500 Mev
N, Nucleon(939)
N*(1440), Roper Resonance
Simple Model for N*(1440)
N*(1440) is three-quark with the first radial excitation
N*(1440) too low mass to be radial excitation
problems of the models
Various quarks models
Met difficulties to explain its mass and electromagnetic couplings

Conclusions
is treated as a hybrid baryon, , in nonrelativistic regime
The method developed is very general, it could be applied to evaluate other decay process like
)1440(*N Gq3
)1440(*N
Next Step
Determine the parameters
Work out the decay width of in other channel
