Oblate Skyrmions

Abstract: The spherically symmetric hedgehog ansatz used in the description of the skyrmion is believed to be inadequate for the rotational states such as the nucleon (I=J=1/2) and the Delta (I=J=3/2) due to centrifugal forces. We study here a simple alternative: an oblate spheroidal solution which leads to lower masses for these baryons. As one might expect, the shape of the solution is flatter as one increases I=J whether the size of the soliton is allowed to change or not.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures (unchanged), late… Show more

“…Notice that when these parameters preserve the spherical symmetry the old results of ANW are recovered. It should be noticed that this deformation occurs in the internal space of constraints and, therefore, can not be compared directly with the results of the "deformed skyrmions" proposed earlier where the deformation was encoded in the profile function of the hedgehodge solution [8,22,23] Our solution provides new free parameters related to the deformation which may be adjusted adequately to fit experimental results.…”

“…One of the current trends in modern fiber optics is associated with the use of micro-and nano-structured systems for the light flux control. In recent years, a whole section of nonlinear science has been formed, which is devoted to theoretical and experimental studies of wave processes in spatially periodic nonlinear media, in which main attention is focused on the following issues: supercontinuum generation [1,2], shortening of laser pulse duration [3][4][5][6][7][8][9], control of the wave field structure [10][11][12][13][14][15], formation of light bullets [16][17][18][19][20][21][22], soliton-like solutions [22,23], and generation of intense laser pulses in active fiber systems.…”
