Hyperon Axial Charges in Two-Flavor Chiral Perturbation Theory

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-05 v3 High Energy Physics - Lattice

Abstract

We use two-flavor heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory to investigate the isovector axial charges of the spin one-half hyperons. Expressions for these hyperon axial charges are derived at next-to-leading order in the chiral expansion. We utilize phenomenological and lattice QCD inputs to assess the convergence of the two-flavor theory, which appears to be best for cascades.
