QCD Sum Rules: Isospin Symmetry Breakings in Pion-Nucleon Couplings

Nuclear Theory 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

We use the method of QCD sum rules in the presence of an external pion field to investigate isospin symmetry breakings in pion-nucleon couplings. Possible manifestations of such isospin symmetry breaking are examined in the context of low-energy nucleon-nucleon (NNNN) scattering. We discuss numerical results in relation to both the existing data and other theoretical predictions.
