A problem with the standard Skyrme model is that Skyrmion binding energies are around $15\%$, being much larger than the order $1\%$ binding energies of the nuclei that they aim to describe. Here we consider theories that extend the…
We analyze the mechanism of condensation of orientational moduli (as introduced in [25]) on multi-Skyrmionic configurations of the four-dimensional Skyrme model. The present analysis reveals interesting novel features. First of all, the…
The Skyrme model is extended with the Maxwell action and a source term for the gauge field. We consider the specialized case of vanishing isospin states, such that only an electric potential is turned on and study the backreaction onto the…
Recently it has been found that the structure of Skyrmions has a close analogy to that of fullerene shells in carbon chemistry. In this letter we show that this analogy continues further, by presenting a Skyrme field that describes a…
An omega-meson extension of the Skyrme model - without the Skyrme term but including the pion mass - first considered by Adkins and Nappi is studied in detail for baryon numbers 1 to 8. The static problem is reformulated as a constrained…
We exhibit the dynamical scattering of multi-solitons in the Skyrme model for configurations with charge two, three and four. First, we construct maximally attractive configurations from a simple profile function and the product ansatz.…
Starting from solutions of the lightly-bound Skyrme model, we construct many new Skyrmion solutions of the standard Skyrme model with tetrahedral or octahedral symmetry. These solutions are closely related to weight diagrams of the group…
Following Marleau, we study an extended version of the Skyrme model to which a sixth order term has been added to the Lagrangian and we analyse some of its classical properties. We compute the multi-Skyrmion solutions numerically for up to…
Axially symmetric gravitating multi-skyrmion configurations are obtained using the harmonic map ansatz introduced in [1]. In particular, the effect of gravity on the energy and baryon densities of the SU(3) non-gravitating multi-skyrmion…
A work of Manton showed how skymions may be viewed as maps between riemannian manifolds minimising an energy functional, with topologically non-trivial global minimisers given precisely by isometries. We consider a generalisation of this…
The relatively small binding energy in nuclei suggests that they may be well represented by near-BPS Skyrmions since their mass is roughly proportional to the baryon number $A.$ For that purpose, we propose a generalization of the Skyrme…
An unified approximated solution for symmetric Skyrmions was proposed for the SU(2) Skyrme model for baryon numbers up to 8,which take the hybrid form of a kink-like solution and that given by the instanton method. The Skyrmion profiles are…
Static properties of multiskyrmions with baryon numbers up to 8 are calculated, including momenta of inertia and sigma-term. The calculations are based on the recently suggested SU(2) rational map ansaetze. Minimization with the help of…
We study the zero-temperature crystalline structure of baby Skyrmions by applying a full-field numerical minimization algorithm to baby Skyrmions placed inside different parallelogramic unit-cells and imposing periodic boundary conditions.…
It has been known that a B=2 skyrmion is axially symmetric. We consider the Skyrme model coupled to gravity and obtain static axially symmetric black hole solutions numerically. The black hole skyrmion no longer has integer baryonic charge…
The paper concerns the analysis of global minimizers of a Dirichlet-type energy functional in the class of $\mathbb{S}^2$-valued maps defined in cylindrical surfaces. The model naturally arises as a curved thin-film limit in the theories of…
The baryon-number-two (B=2) solution based on the SU(2) chiral quark soliton model ($\chi$QSM) is solved numerically, including fully the sea quark degrees of freedom. We confirm that the axially symmetric meson configurations yield the…
An extension of the Skyrme model is presented in which derivative terms are added that break chiral symmetry to isospin symmetry. The theory contains just one new parameter and it reduces to the standard Skyrme model when this symmetry…
In this review we present a pedagogical introduction to recent, more mathematical developments in the Skyrme model. Our aim is to render these advances accessible to mainstream nuclear and particle physicists. We start with the static…
In the Skyrme model with massless pions, the minimal energy multi-Skyrmions are shell-like, with the baryon density localized on the edges of a polyhedron that is approximately spherical and generically of the fullerene-type. In this paper…
