Baryon masses are calculated in chiral perturbation theory at the one--loop-${\cal O}(p^3)$ level in the chiral expansion and to leading order in the heavy baryon expansion. Ultraviolet divergences occur requiring the introduction of…
We consider flavor breaking in the the octet and decuplet baryon masses at second order in large-$N$ chiral perturbation theory, where $N$ is the number of QCD colors. We assume that $1/N \sim 1/N_F \sim m_s / \Lambda \gg m_{u,d}/\Lambda,…
The corrections to the Gell-Mann-Okubo relations of baryon-masses are presented in the SU(3) Skyrme model. These corrections are calculated up to the second order in flavor breaking at the skyrmion quantum mechanics. The results are…
We extend an earlier study of the baryon magnetic moments in chiral perturbation theory by the explicit inclusion of the spin-3/2 decuplet resonances. We find that the corrections induced by these heavier degrees of freedom are relatively…

Nonanalytic $m_q^{1/2}$ and $m_q\ln m_q$ chiral corrections to the baryon magnetic moments are computed. The calculation includes contributions from both intermediate octet and decuplet baryon states. Unlike the one-loop contributions to…

The masses of the charmed baryons in the ${\bf 6}$ representation of $SU(3)$ obey an equal spacing rule at lowest order in $SU(3)$ breaking, ${\cal O}(m_s)$. We compute the corrections to this relation at order ${\cal O}(m_s^{3/2})$ arising…
