Casimir corrections in the bound state soliton model
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the one-loop corrections to the SU(3) skyrmion mass within the bound state soliton approach. We show that the standard SU(3) renormalization scheme is not appropiate within this framework and propose to use an alternative one based on SU(2). For physical meson masses and decay constants the resulting Casimir correction turns out to be rather scale-independent and leads to an acceptable estimate of the nucleon mass.

Casimir Effects in Renormalizable Quantum Field Theories
We review the framework we and our collaborators have developed for the study of one– loop quantum corrections to extended field configurations in renormalizable quantum field theories. We work in the continuum, transforming the standard Casimir sum over modes into a sum over bound states and an integral over scattering states weighted by the density of states. We express the density of states ...
متن کاملLocal Casimir energy for solitons
A direct calculation of the one-loop contributions to the energy density of bosonic and supersymmetric φ4 kinks exhibits: (1) Local mode regularization. Regularization of the Casimir energy density maintains equality for the soliton and trivial vacua of not only the total number of field oscillation modes, but also the total mode density at each point in space. This yields the anomalous part of...
متن کاملSolitons Bound to Heavy Mesons
We improve the bound state approach of the Skyrme model applied to the heavy baryons by adopting a static heavy meson picture where the soliton moves around the fixed heavy meson. This allows to take into account the center of mass corrections in a more consistent way. The bound state masses so obtained are comparable to the experimentally observed Λc and Λ ∗ c masses. A loosely bound state of ...

متن کاملCasimir effects of nano objects in fluctuating scalar and electromagnetic fields: Thermodynamic investigating
Casimir entropy is an important aspect of casimir effect and at the nanoscale is visible. In this paper, we employ the path integral method to obtain a general relation for casimir entropy and internal energy of arbitrary shaped objects in the presence of two, three and four dimension scalar fields and the electromagnetic field. For this purpose, using Lagrangian and based on a perturb...
