Near-BPS Skyrmions: Non-shell configurations and Coulomb effects
Eric Bonenfant, Louis Harbour, Luc Marleau
The relatively small binding energy in nuclei suggests that they may be well represented by near-BPS Skyrmions since their mass is roughly proportional to the baryon number Fo…

Nuclei as near BPS-Skyrmions
Eric Bonenfant, Luc Marleau
We study a generalization of the Skyrme model with the inclusion of a sixth-order term and a generalized mass term. We first analyze the model in a regime where the nonlinear sigma…
