Hyperon Radiative Decays in the 1/N_c Expansion

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

Using a recent calculation of transition magnetic moments in the 1/N_c expansion and a calculation showing the suppression of E2/M1 by powers of N_c, we compute the widths for the radiative decays Sigma^* --> Sigma gamma, Sigma^* --> Lambda gamma, and Xi^* --> Xi gamma.
