Light Nuclei as Quantized Skyrmions
Olga V. Manko, Nicholas S. Manton, Stephen W. Wood
We consider the rigid body quantization of Skyrmions with topological charges 1 to 8, as approximated by the rational map ansatz. Novel, general expressions for the elements of the…

On the Spin of the B=7 Skyrmion
Olga V. Manko, Nicholas S. Manton
We investigate the collective coordinate quantization of the icosahedrally symmetric B=7 Skyrmion, which is known to have a ground state with spin 7/2 and isospin 1/2. We find a pa…
