Hyperon Decays in Chiral Perturbation Theory Revisited
arXiv:hep-ph/9508324
Abstract
The discrepancies found between S-wave and P-wave fits for hyperon decays are reinvestigated using the heavy baryon chiral Lagrangian formalism. The agreement is found to improve through the inclusion of previously omitted diagrams. The S-waves are unaffected by this, but the P-wave predictions are modified. A correlated fit to the chiral parameters is performed and the results discussed.
