Independent quark model; Dirac equation logarithmic potential; octet baryons; magnetic moments; axial vector coupling constant; proton charge radius

A simple independent-quark-model based on the Dirac equation with logarithmic potential is used to calculate several properties of octet baryons such as magnetic moment, the axial vector coupling constantg_A (n) for neutronβ-decay and the charge radius of the proton. In view of the simplicity of the model, the results obtained are quite good.
