Drell-Hearn-Gerasimov Sum Rule for the Nucleon in the Large-N_c Limit

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We show that the Drell-Hearn-Gerasimov sum rule for the nucleon is entirely saturated by the \Delta resonance in the limit of a large number of colors, N_c \to \infty. Corrections are at relative order 1/N_c^2.
