A new QCD sum rule analysis on the spin-isospin averaged $\rho$, $\omega$ and $\phi$ meson-nucleon scattering lengths is presented. By introducing the constraint relation on the the low energy limit of the vector-current nucleon forward…
Based on an effective Lagrangian which combines chiral SU(3) dynamics with vector meson dominance, we have developed a model for the s-wave vector meson-nucleon scattering amplitudes. We use this as an input for the low energy part of the…
