Semiclassical quantization of SU(3) skyrmions

preprint1997arXivOpen access

Abstract

Semiclassical quantization of the SU(3)-skyrmions is performed by means of the collective coordinate method. The quantization condition known for the SU(2)-solitons quantized with SU(3) collective coordinates is generalized for the SU(3) skyrmions with strangeness content different from zero. Quantization of the dipole-type configuration with large strangeness content found recently is considered as an example, the spectrum and the mass splitting of the quantized states are estimated. The energy and baryon number density of SU(3) skyrmions are presented in the form emphasizing their symmetry in different SU(2) subgroups of SU(3), and the lower boundary for the static energy of SU(3) skyrmions is derived.
