The Skyrme model is reconsidered from an effective theory point of view. Starting with the most general Lagrangian up to including terms of order $p^4$, $N_c$ and $\delta m^2$ ($\delta m\equiv m_s-m$), we obtain new interactions, which have…
We briefly review the generalized Skyrmion model for the baryon recently suggested by us. It takes into account the tower of vector and axial mesons as well as the chiral symmetry breaking. The generalized Skyrmion model provides the…
The Nambu - Jona-Lasinio model in its SU(2) and SU(3) versions with scalar and pseudoscalar coupling are applied to baryons. The parameters of the model are fixed in the meson sector. The baryons arise as a soliton of three valence quarks…
We present a summary of work done on dense hadronic matter, based on the Skyrme model, which provides a unified approach to high density, valid in the large $N_c$ limit. In our picture, dense hadronic matter is described by the {\em…
We examine the ordering of skyrmions interacting with a square substrate created from a modulation of anisotropy using atomistic simulations. We consider fillings of {\it f} = 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, and 3.5 skyrmions per potential minimum as a…
We introduce a family of models for magnetic skyrmions in the plane for which infinitely many solutions can be given explicitly. The energy defining the models is bounded below by a linear combination of degree and total vortex strength,…
We study the overdamped sedimentation of non-Brownian objects of irregular shape using fluctuating hydrodynamics. The anisotropic response of the objects to flow, caused by their tendency to align with gravity, directly suppresses…
We investigate higher baryon-number states in the Chiral Quark Soliton Model using the rational map ansatz for the background chiral fields. The soliton solutions are obtained self-consistently. We show that the baryon number density has…
The hedgehog Skyrme model on three-sphere admits very rich spectrum of solitonic solutions which can be encompassed by a strikingly simple scheme. The main result of this paper is the statement of the tripartite structure of solutions of…
Observational evidence implying the accelerated expansion of the universe has been the motivation to develop various classes of modified gravity theories. One of them uses the so-called "screening mechanism", which is successful in…
Magnetic skyrmions in chiral magnets typically arrange into hexagonal lattices, with their structural order influenced by factors such as temperature, external magnetic fields and geometric constraints. While translational defects in…
Skyrmions are chiral swirling magnetization structures with nanoscale size. These structures have attracted considerable attention due to their topological stability and promising applicability in nanodevices, since they can be displaced…
We present resolved HI observations of six dwarf galaxies drawn from a sample of baryon-dominated dwarf galaxy (BDDG) candidates previously identified using global HI spectra from ALFALFA and optical inclinations from SDSS, both of which…
Skyrmions in the FQHE at filling fractions above \nu=1/3 are studied within the anyon model and by exact diagonalization. Relations to the composite fermion theory are pointed out. We find that unpolarized quasiparticles above \nu=1/3 are…
We investigate the ground state crystalline structure of nuclear matter in the $\omega$-meson variant of the Skyrme model. After minimizing energy with respect to variations of both the Skyrme field and the period lattice, we find four…
Three-dimensional central symmetric bodies different from spheres that can float in all orientations are considered. For relative density rho=1/2 there are solutions, if holes in the body are allowed. For rho different from 1/2 the body is…
Chiral skyrmion states exist in non - centrosymmetric magnetic crystals as a consequence of the asymmetric exchange Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions that destroy the homogeneous magnetic state and generally lead to twisted incommensurate…
We investigate the static properties of the nucleon in the presence of strong magnetic fields and discuss the consequent changes of the nucleon structure, based on the Skyrme model. The results show that at large values of the magnetic…
Magnetic skyrmions emerge as promising quasi-particles for encoding information in nextgeneration spintronic devices. Their innate flexibility in shape is essential for the applications although they were often ideally treated as rigid…
We analyse the consequences of a disformal interaction between a massless scalar and matter particles in the context of atomic physics. We focus on the displacement of the atomic energy levels that it induces, and in particular the change…
