Weak Nonleptonic Omega Decay in Chiral Perturbation Theory

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We calculate the weak nonleptonic decay of the Omega^- baryon to octet final states in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory (HBChPT). We include the one-loop leading logarithmic effects and show that this improves the universality of the HBChPT constants.
