We analyze lattice data for octet baryon masses from the QCDSF collaboration employing manifestly covariant Baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory. It is shown that certain combinations of low-energy constants can be fixed more accurately than…

Lorentz violation in hadronic systems is related to Lorentz-violating operators of quarks and gluons. Due to the nonperturbative nature of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at low energies, establishing these relationships is complex. Chiral…
