Abstract

Phenomenological Lagrangians that exhibit (broken) chiral symmetry as well as isospin violation suggest short-range charge symmetry breaking (CSB) nucleon-nucleon potentials with a $\mbox{\boldmath $σ$}_1 \!\cdot\!\mbox{\boldmath $σ$}_2$ structure. This structure could be realized by the mixing of axial-vector () mesons in a single-meson exchange picture. The Coleman-Glashow scheme for charge symmetry breaking applied to meson and baryon mass splittings suggests a universal scale. This scale can be extended to nonstrange CSB transitions of size GeV. The resulting nucleon-nucleon axial-vector meson exchange CSB potential then predicts effects which are small.
