The spectrum and dominant strong decay properties of the doubly heavy baryons are revisited by using a chiral effective model with chiral partner structure. By regarding the doubly heavy baryons in the ground states and light angular…
The dense baryonic matter and hadron properties in medium were simulated by using a Skyrme model including the ground state vector mesons introduced from the hidden local symmetry approach up to the next to leading order. We found that both…
Beyond the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking scale light and strange baryons should be considered as systems of three constituent quarks with an effective confining interaction and a flavor-spin chiral interaction that is mediated by the…
Broken chiral symmetry has become the basis for a unified treatment of hadronic interactions at low energies. After reviewing mechanisms for spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking, I outline the construction of the low--energy effective field…
An extension of the Skyrme model is presented in which derivative terms are added that break chiral symmetry to isospin symmetry. The theory contains just one new parameter and it reduces to the standard Skyrme model when this symmetry…
We consider various forms of the mass term that can be used in the Skyrme model and their implications on the properties of baryonic states. We show that, with an appropriate choice for the mass term, without changing the asymptotic…
The characteristic predictions of chiral soliton models - the Skyrme model and its extentions - are discussed. The chiral soliton models prediction of dibaryon states with masses below NN-pion threshold is in qualitative agreement with…
The baby Skyrme model is a (2+1)-dimensional analogue of the Skyrme model, in which baryons are described by topological solitons. In this paper we introduce a version of the baby Skyrme model in which the global O(3) symmetry is broken to…
We briefly outline the so-called extended on-mass-shell renormalization scheme for manifestly Lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation theory which provides a simple and consistent power counting for renormalized diagrams. We comment on…
This lecture provides a pedagogical instruction to the basic concepts of the Skyrme model and its some applications. As the preliminary for understanding the Skyrme model, we first briefly explain the large $N_c$ expansion, chiral symmetry…
The properties of baryons containing one heavy quark are studied in the Skyrme model, where they are treated as bound states of a heavy meson with an $SU(2)$ chiral soliton. In the large $N_c$ limit, the baryon spectrum is an infinite tower…
In a recent paper Yang and Kim discuss the lowest baryon mass formulas using a chiral soliton model. However, contrary to their assertion, their result is not equivalent to a generalized Gell Mann-Okubo mass formula derived (G.Morpurgo…
We present a qualitative analysis of the gross features of baryon spectroscopy (masses and form factors) in terms of various exactly solvable models. It is shown that a collective model, in which baryon resonances are interpreted as…
We provide an introduction to the power-counting issue in baryon chiral perturbation theory and discuss some recent developments in the manifestly Lorentz-invariant formulation of the one-nucleon sector. As explicit applications we consider…
I report on recent progress in the study of mass generation in non-abelian gauge theories, and concentrate on the origin of constituent masses in QCD. I argue that a consistent formalism has been developed to describe chiral symmetry…
We calculate the baryon octet masses to fourth order in chiral perturbation theory employing dimensional and cut-off regularization. We analyze the pion and kaon mass dependences of the baryon masses based on the MILC data. We show that…
The proton mass arises from spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry and the formation of constituent quarks. Their dynamics cannot be tested by proton tomography but only by studying excited baryons. However, the number of excited baryons…
Chiral symmetry aspects for baryon properties are studied. After a brief discussion on general framework, we introduce two distinctive chiral group representations for baryons: the naive and mirror assignments. Using linear sigma models,…
The masses of hadrons in the vacuum, where the chiral symmetry is restored, and in the medium are in general different even when the changes in the order parameters of chiral symmetry are the same. Here, we first discuss the relation…
Spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking, mesons and baryons are illustrated in the language of the Dirac theory. Various forces acting between quarks inside baryons are discussed. I explain why the naive quark models typically overestimate…
