Hyperons in two-flavor chiral perturbation theory

Abstract: We use two-flavor chiral perturbation theory to describe hyperons. We focus on the strangeness conserving sector, and, as an example, calculate hyperon masses. Convergence of this two-flavor chiral expansion for observables is improved over the three-flavor theory. The cost, however, is a larger number of low-energy constants that must be ultimately determined from lattice QCD data. A formula for the mass of the omega baryon is derived to sixth order in this expansion, and will aid lattice practitioners in sca… Show more

“…The NREFTs are constructed as an expansion in derivatives acting on fields near their classical trajectory. As emphasized by Tiburzi [79] and others, this leads to modifications in calculated matrix elements because derivatives are approximated by finite differences in lattice calculations. For large momenta, this is a small effect because of the large density of states, but at low momenta, particularly near zero, this can be a non-negligible effect that must be accounted for.…”

“…Allowing to be slightly away from the physical pion mass we can perform an interpolation to the physical point as follows: Observing that our previous results using N f = 2 and N f = 2 + 1 + 1 ensembles showed no detectable cut-off and volume effects nor we have seen any unquenching effects due to the strange and charm quarks in the sea, we make use of the nucleon masses from 17 N f = 2 + 1 + 1 ensembles [36] in order to interpolate the nucleon mass of the physical ensemble. Namely, we perform a combined fit to the N f = 2 physical ensemble and the 17 N f = 2 + 1 + 1 ensembles using the SU(2) chiral perturbation theory (χPT) well-established O(p 3 ) expression [56,57] …”
