Incorporating Chiral Symmetry and Heavy Quark Theory in Extrapolations of Octet Baryon Charge Radii

E. J. Hackett-Jones, D. B. Leinweber, A. W. Thomas

We extrapolate lattice calculations of electric charge radii of the spin-1/2 baryon octet to the physical regime. The extrapolation procedure incorporates chiral perturbation theor…
