We study the structure of local baryon fields using the method of QCD sum
rule. We only consider the single baryon fields and calculate their operator
product expansions. We find that the octet baryon fields belonging to the
chiral representations [(3,3*)+(3*,3)] and [(8,1)+(1,8)] and the decuplet
baryon fields belonging to the chiral representations [(3,6)+(6,3)] lead to the
baryon masses which are consistent with the experimental data of ground baryon
masses. We also calculate their decay constants, check our normalizations for
baryon fields in PRD81:054002(2010) and find that they are well-defined.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figure, 1 table, accepted by EPJ
