A recent lattice QCD (LQCD) calculation of $\Sigma$-$\Lambda$ mixing by the QCDSF-UKQCD Collaboration [Phys. Rev. D 91, 074512 (2015)] finds a mixing angle about half of that found from the Dalitz-von Hippel (DvH) flavor SU(3) mass formula…
We calculate the on-shell $\Sigma^0$-$\Lambda$ mixing parameter $\theta$ with the method of QCD sum rule. Our result is $\theta (m^2_{\Sigma^0}) =(-)(0.5\pm 0.1)$MeV. The electromagnetic interaction is not included.
The $\Sigma$--$\Lambda$ mixing angle is calculated in framework of the QCD sum rules. We find that our prediction for the mixing angle is $(1.00\pm 0.15)^0$ which is in good agreement with the quark model prediction, and approximately two…
In this Reply, we respond to the above Comment. Our computation [Phys. Rev. D 91 (2015) 074512] only took into account pure QCD effects, arising from quark mass differences, so it is not surprising that there are discrepancies in isospin…
Isospin breaking effects in baryon octet (and decuplet) masses are due to a combination of up and down quark mass differences and electromagnetic effects and lead to small mass splittings. Between the Sigma and Lambda this mass splitting is…
We analyze the mixing between $\Sigma^0$ and $\Lambda^0$ based on the baryon masses. We distinguish the contributions from QCD and QED in the baryon mass splittings. We find that the mixing angle between $\Sigma^0$ and $\Lambda^0$ is…

Isospin is an almost exact symmetry of strong interactions and the corrections to the isosymmetric limit are, in general, at the percent level. For several hadronic quantities relevant for flavour physics phenomenology, such as pseudoscalar…

As a direct source of information on chiral symmetry breaking within QCD, the sigma commutator is of considerable importance. With recent advances in the calculation of hadron masses within full QCD it is of interest to see whether the…

Accounting for isospin-breaking corrections is critical for achieving subpercent precision in lattice computations of hadronic observables. A way to include QED and strong-isospin-breaking corrections in lattice QCD calculations is to…
