Baryon masses in chiral perturbation theory

Elizabeth Jenkins
- 06 Jan 1992 - 
- Vol. 368, Iss: 1, pp 190-203
TLDR
Chiral corrections to baryon mass relations are computed using a chiral lagrangian which includes the spin-3 2 baryons decuplet as mentioned in this paper, which is consistent with chira; perturbation theory up to order m s 2.

Chiral perturbation theory

TL;DR: In the low-energy frontier, the main goal is to perform precision tests of the standard theory and to make up for the smaller energies, high sensitivity is an indispensable requirement (factories).

Departures from chiral symmetry

TL;DR: In this article, the role of perturbation theory in the symmetry breaking process is discussed, with a special emphasis on the Nambu-Goldstone realizations of chiral SU(2) × SU (2) and SU(3) + SU (3) ×SU (3).
