ABSTRACT SKYRMION PHYSICS Tran N. TRUONG 337 SKYRMION PHYSICS Tran N. TRUONG Centre de Physique Theorique de l'Ecole Polytechnique Plateau de Palaiseau - 91128 Palaiseau - Cedex - France AB STRACT Sum rules are given for evaluating the strength of the two derivative quartic terms in the pion chiral Lagrangian. The Skyrme term which stab ilises the soliton and the non-Skyrme term which destabilises the soliton are shown , respec­ tively, inversely proportional to m2 and m2 . The general approaches to Skyrmion physics are discussed. p (J 338 ( ) In 1960 , in a very original paper, Skyrme I proposed a unified field theory of mesons and baryons by considering baryons as soliton solutions of a chiral meson field theory. His main motivation is to give a proper treatment of an extended obj ect. Skyrme ' s idea is recently revised by a numb er of people <2 ,3) The real impetus in this direction is due to Witten who showed in the limit of the large number of color N , Quantum Chromodynamics becomes an effective theory of c (4) mesons , and baryons could emerge as soliton solutions of the effective theory . If this idea was correct, the static properties of the baryons could be determined by the low energy effective meson theory wh ose strength is not arbitrary but is determined by the low energy phenomenology . The purpose of this communication which is done in the collaboration with T.N. Pham is two fold. We show how to determine the strength of the low ener­ gy effective field theory and then clarify the prevailing confusing question of how to stab ilize the baryon solitons (Skyrmions) : we first show that the Skyrme term which is used in the litterature to stabilise the soliton is related to the field. (In the limit its mass tends to infinity, the strength of the Skyrme p term vanishes) . In addition to this term there exists another term which destabi­ lises the soliton; its strength is inversely proportional to the effective scalar meson a mass. Low energy pion pion scattering phenomenology shows that the con­ tributions of these two quartic terms are not sufficient to stabilise the solitons . It is then argued that , on the general ground , the contribution (and possibly w A ) which gives rise to a six power of the derivatives of the pion field in the 1 Lagrangian mus t be taken into account. We write down the effective Lagrangian for meson meson interaction as £ £ £ = + Q 0 with £ is the standard minimal term in the non linear a-model 0 2 11 + 2 2 £ f Tr ( a M a M ) I m f (2 - Tr M) ( I ) 0 8 'Jr \1 - 4 'Jr 'Jr where M exp ih �. 1i/f and f 1 35 Mev and 'Jr 'Jr (2) The first term on the RHS is identified as the Skyrme term the second is called non-Skyrme term. 339 2 To calculate e and we evaluate the contribution of £ to the y Q elastic pion pion scattering and identify its contribution with those evaluated from the forward dispersion relation to obtain two separate sum rules. The method (5) is discussed in details in our recent publication . We give the main results : o Tr+Tf ds s(s 4m ) o (s) �TI tot (3) I 2 3 2e (s-2m ) TI 2 0TI 0 ds /sr---::.(s-4m ) oTI (s) tot TI (4) .J_2 e Eqs . (3) and (4) clearly show that high energy contribution are strongly suppres­ 2 sed and that e 0 and O. In the sum rule (3) only isospin I= ! and I=2 > y > contribute and sum rule (4) only isospin I=O and I=2 contribute. It is an 1 experimental fact that at low energy the I=2 cross section is negligible and therefore can be neglected in these sum rules. Instead of using the experimental data in these sum rules to get a number , it is more transparent to parametrise experimental data such that the Weinberg low energy expansion is satisfied . After <5) some manipu. 1 ations. , we have : 2 f I TI 2e m2 p (5) 2 f :r..2 I TI e 32m 0 2 2 2 2 where m "" 30 m and m = 25 m which fits the low energy and more TI s p phase shiftsp (up to about0 900 Mev)TI; is the usual vector meson and is an p 0 effective isoscalar scalar meson. Hence I 30 and "" 0.35. 2""e y It can be shown, on general grounds, that the soliton energy is nega­ (5) tive for Numerical integration of the differential equation derived y > � from the chiral Lagrangian £ with the usual Skyrme ansatz and boundary condition ( restricts 0.10 6 • 7). Our value of given by Eq. (5) violates this inequa­ y � y lity, hence no soliton solution exists with £Q given by Eq. (2) . A large value of as given by Eq. (5) is unavoidable. It is related y to the discrepancies between current algebra predictions and experimental data on (S) S wave I=O pion pion scattering length, TITieV and 3TI rate . K + n + 340 Let us try to see whether it is possible to change this situation. One can argue that the effective Lagrangian given above is not sufficiently general. It essentially takes into account the indirect effect of the and field p a (in other words a chiral Lagrangian obtained after eliminating the heavy and p fields) . But this is not sufficient . To be consistent we have to take into a account of the effect of the field whose mass is almost degenerate with w p The addition of the - contribution in the general effective Lagrangian induces w a term which is 6th power of the derivative of the pion fields (6-point function) . Knowing the experimental width of 3rr , the strength of this term can be calcu­ w + lated. Numerical integration of the Euler equations obtained from Eqs. and (I) (2) together with the contribution yield a stable soliton solution with (6) w 0.27 , which is roughly consistent with Eq. (5) , allowing some uncertainties y < in the determination of m The baryon mass is however a factor of 2 too large. It remains to be seen whethera the A contribution can change the situation. 1 (9) Our approach differs from that of Adkins and Nappi who took into account of the contribution independently of the quartic terms . They have w carefully pointed out, to be consistent , the contribution must be taken into p account which, we show here, is the Skyrme term. In conclusion, I would like to point out two possible general approa­ ches to the Skyrmion problem. The first method consists in extending the non ( O) linear model to include , A contributions I ; the non-Skyrme term has a p, w 1 to be put in by hand . The second method is to write down the linear model with a , , A contributions . In either approach one should verify the contributions p w 1 of other heavy fields to the soliton calculation are small. (We have explicitly calculated the f contribution to the strength of the non Skyrme term Eq. ( 4) and found to be smal0 l, of the order of 10% of the contribution) . a REFERENCES ( I ) T.H.R.

  • Effects of Scalar Mesons in a Skyrme Model with Hidden Local Symmetry
    Effects of scalar mesons in a Skyrme model with hidden local symmetry 1, 2, 1, Bing-Ran He, ∗ Yong-Liang Ma, † and Masayasu Harada ‡ 1Department of Physics, Nagoya University, Nagoya, 464-8602, Japan 2Center of Theoretical Physics and College of Physics, Jilin University, Changchun, 130012, China (Dated: March 5, 2018) We study the effects of light scalar mesons on the skyrmion properties by constructing and ex- amining a mesonic model including pion, rho meson, and omega meson fields as well as two-quark and four-quark scalar meson fields. In our model, the physical scalar mesons are defined as mixing states of the two- and four-quark fields. We first omit the four-quark scalar meson field from the model and find that when there is no direct coupling between the two-quark scalar meson and the vector mesons, the soliton mass is smaller and the soliton size is larger for lighter scalar mesons; when direct coupling is switched on, as the coupling strength increases, the soliton becomes heavy, and the radius of the baryon number density becomes large, as the repulsive force arising from the ω meson becomes strong. We then include the four-quark scalar meson field in the model and find that mixing between the two-quark and four-quark components of the scalar meson fields also affects the properties of the soliton. When the two-quark component of the lighter scalar meson is increased, the soliton mass decreases and the soliton size increases. PACS numbers: 11.30.Rd, 12.39.Dc, 12.39.Fe, 14.40.Be I.

  • 1– N and ∆ RESONANCES Revised May 2015 by V. Burkert
    – 1– N AND ∆ RESONANCES Revised May 2015 by V. Burkert (Jefferson Lab), E. Klempt (University of Bonn), M.R. Pennington (Jefferson Lab), L. Tiator (University of Mainz), and R.L. Workman (George Washington University). I. Introduction The excited states of the nucleon have been studied in a large number of formation and production experiments. The Breit-Wigner masses and widths, the pole positions, and the elasticities of the N and ∆ resonances in the Baryon Summary Table come largely from partial-wave analyses of πN total, elastic, and charge-exchange scattering data. The most com- prehensive analyses were carried out by the Karlsruhe-Helsinki (KH80) [1], Carnegie Mellon-Berkeley (CMB80) [2], and George Washington U (GWU) [3] groups. Partial-wave anal- yses have also been performed on much smaller πN reaction data sets to get ηN, KΛ, and KΣ branching fractions (see the Listings for references). Other branching fractions come from analyses of πN ππN data. → In recent years, a large amount of data on photoproduction of many final states has been accumulated, and these data are beginning to tell us much about the properties of baryon resonances. A survey of data on photoproduction can be found in the proceedings of recent conferences [4] and workshops [5], and in recent reviews [6,7]. II. Naming scheme for baryon resonances In the past, when nearly all resonance information came from elastic πN scattering, it was common to label reso- nances with the incoming partial wave L2I,2J , as in ∆(1232)P33 and N(1680)F15. However, most recent information has come from γN experiments.

In this approach, single baryon, baryonic matter and medium-modified hadron properties are treated on the same footing. Intrinsic density dependence (IDD) reflecting the change of vacuum by compressed baryonic matter figures naturally in the approach. In this article, we review the recent progress on accessing dense nuclear matter by putting baryons treated as solitons, namely, skyrmions, on crystal lattice with accents on the implications in compact stars.

  • Analysis of Pseudoscalar and Scalar $D$ Mesons and Charmonium

R. Ambedkar National Institute of Technology Jalandhar, Jalandhar 144011 Punjab, India (Received 27 August 2019; revised manuscript received 19 November 2019; published 8 January 2020) In this paper, we calculate the mass shift and decay constant of isospin-averaged pseudoscalar (D+, D0 ) +, 0 and scalar (D0 D0 ) mesons by the magnetic-field-induced quark and gluon condensates at finite density and temperature of asymmetric nuclear matter. We have calculated the in-medium chiral condensates from the chiral SU(3) mean-field model and subsequently used these condensates in QCD sum rules to calculate the effective mass and decay constant of D mesons. Consideration of external magnetic-field effects in hot and dense nuclear matter lead to appreciable modification in the masses and decay constants of D mesons. Furthermore, we also ψ ,ψ ,χ ,χ studied the effective decay width of higher charmonium states [ (3686) (3770) c0(3414) c2(3556)] as a 3 by-product by using the P0 model, which can have an important impact on the yield of J/ψ mesons. The results of the present work will be helpful to understand the experimental observables of heavy-ion colliders which aim to produce matter at finite density and moderate temperature.

  • Mass Generation Via the Higgs Boson and the Quark Condensate of the QCD Vacuum

Physikalisches Institut der Universität Göttingen, Friedrich-Hund-Platz 1, D-37077 Göttingen, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Published online 24 August 2016 Abstract. The Higgs boson, recently discovered with a mass of 125.7 GeV is known to mediate the masses of elementary particles, but only 2% of the mass of the nucleon. Extending a previous investigation (Schumacher, Ann. Phys. (Berlin) 526, 215 (2014)) and including the strange-quark sector, hadron masses are derived from the quark condensate of the QCD vacuum and from the effects of the Higgs boson. These calculations include the π meson, the nucleon and the scalar mesons σ(600), κ(800), a0(980), f0(980) and f0(1370). The predicted second σ meson, σ (1344) =|ss¯, is investigated and identified with the f0(1370) meson. An outlook is given on the hyperons , 0,± and 0,−. Keywords.

  • Scalar Mesons and the Fragmented Glueball
    Scalar mesons and the fragmented glueball Eberhard Klempta aHelmholtz{Institut f¨urStrahlen{ und Kernphysik, Universit¨atNußallee 14-16, Bonn, Germany Abstract The center-of-gravity rule is tested for heavy and light-quark mesons. In the heavy-meson sector, the rule is excellently satisfied. In the light-quark sector, the rule suggests that the a0(980) could be the spin-partner of a2(1320), a1(1260), 0 and b1(1235); f0(500) the spin-partner of f2(1270), f1(1285), and h1(1170); and f0(980) the spin-partner of f2(1525), f1(1420), and h1(1415). From the decay and the production of light scalar mesons we find a consistent mixing angle s ◦ θ = (14 ± 4) . We conclude that f0(980) is likely \octet-like" in SU(3) with a slightly larger ss¯ content and f0(500) ∗ is SU(3) \singlet-like" with a larger nn¯ component. The a0(1450), K0 (1430), f0(1500) and f0(1370) are suggested as nonet of radial excitations. The scalar glueball is discussed as part of the wave function of scalar isoscalar mesons and not as additional \intruder". It seems not to cause supernumerosity. 1.

After summarising all light scalar candidates in the Review of Particle Physics since 1963, a selection of differ- ent theoretical and phenomenological descriptions is presented, including pure meson-meson models, a tetraquark construction, unitarised quark- meson models, unitarised effective chiral approaches, and a very recent lattice-QCD simulation. ⋆ The light scalar-meson nonet f0(500) (alias σ), f0(980), K0 (700) (alias κ), and a0(980) [1] has been vexing experimentalists as well as theorists for more than fifty years by now. Especially the isoscalar σ and isodoublet κ in S-wave ππ and Kπ scattering, respectively, have for many years been considered doubtful as genuine resonances. Only very recently [1] the κ meson was included in the PDG Meson Summary Table of the Review of Particle Physics (RPP). But also the isoscalar f0(980) and isovector a0(980) have for several years been questioned. In Table 1 we list all light scalars arXiv:1806.00364v2 [hep-ph] 7 Jun 2018 that have appeared in the PDG tables since the earliest RPP days, including states with uncertain J P C or even initially identified as having J ≥ 1.
