We compute the mass radius, scalar radius, tensor radius, baryon number radius and mechanical radius of nuclei with baryon number $B=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,32,108$ in the Skyrme model. The relations between these radii and the nuclear…
We develop a formalism for studying vector meson ($V$) photo-production at the proton ($p$) with polarized photons, $\vec\gamma p \to V p $, through an analysis of the decay distribution in the channel $V\to\pi^0\gamma$. We show that this…
The baryon form factor of charged pions arises since isospin symmetry is broken with unequal up and down quark masses, $m_d>m_u$, as well as electromagnetic effects. We obtain estimates for this basic property in two phenomenological ways:…
