Symmetry Breaking in a Generalized Skyrme Model

چکیده

We first outline the calculations of the neutron-proton mass difference and of the axial singlet matrix element (relevant to the “proton spin” puzzle) in a generalized Skyrme model of pseudoscalars and vectors. These two calculations are, perhaps surprisingly, linked to each other and furthermore are sensitive to some fine details of symmetry breaking in the effective meson Lagrangian. This provides a motivation for us to examine these symmetry breaking terms more closely. We find a qualitatively new feature in the symmetry breaking pattern of the vector meson system and discuss its significance.

Non - leptonic hyperon weak decays in the Skyrme model revisited

Non-leptonic hyperon weak decays are investigated in the SU(3) Skyrme model. We use a collective coordinate scheme, following the approach in which the symmetry breaking terms in the strong effective action are diagonalized exactly. To describe the weak interactions we use an octet dominated weak effective lagrangian that leads to a good description of the known 2π and 3π kaon decays. We show t...

Strangeness Dependence in Radiative Hyperon Decay Amplitudes

The radiative decays of the 3 2 + baryons are studied in the three flavor generalization of the Skyrme model. The kaon fields are treated in the slow rotator approach which properly accounts for the observed deviations from the U–spin relations for the hyperon magnetic moments. This makes possible a critical discussion of the U–spin selection rules for the radiative hyperon decays. The variatio...

We consider multisolitons with charges 1 ≤ B ≤ 5 in the baby Skyrme model for the one–parametric family of potentials U = µ 2 (1 − φ 3) s with 0 < s ≤ 4. This class of potentials is a generalization of the 'old' (s = 1) and 'holomorphic' (s = 4) baby Skyrme models. We find that for charge one, stable solutions exist for every value of s and they are rotationally-symmetric. For higher charges, s...

Loosely bound hyperons in the SU(3) Skyrme model.

Hyperon pairs bound in deuteronlike states are obtained within the SU(3) Skyrme model in agreement with general expectations from boson exchange models. The central binding from the Qavor-symmetry-breaking terms increases with the strangeness contents of the interacting baryons whereas the kinetic nonlinear o-model term 6xes the spin and isospin of the bound pair. We give a complete account of ...

The Hopf Skyrmion in QCD with Adjoint Quarks

We consider a modification of QCD in which conventional fundamental quarks are replaced by Weyl fermions in the adjoint representation of the color SU(N). In the case of two flavors the low-energy chiral Lagrangian is that of the Skyrme–Faddeev model. The latter supports topologically stable solitons with mass scaling as N. Topological stability is due to the existence of a nontrivial Hopf inva...
