Operator analysis of effective spin-flavor interactions for L=1 excited baryons
We match the nonrelativistic quark model, with both flavor-dependent and flavor-independent effective quark-quark interactions, to the spin-flavor operator basis of the 1/Nc expansion for the L=1 nonstrange baryons. We obtain analytic expressions for the coefficients of the 1/Nc operators in terms o...

| Sumario: | We match the nonrelativistic quark model, with both flavor-dependent and flavor-independent effective quark-quark interactions, to the spin-flavor operator basis of the 1/Nc expansion for the L=1 nonstrange baryons. We obtain analytic expressions for the coefficients of the 1/Nc operators in terms of radial integrals that depend on the shape and relative strength of the spin-spin, spin-orbit and tensor interactions of the model, which are left unspecified. We obtain several new, parameter-free relations between the seven masses and the two mixing angles that can discriminate between different spin-flavor structures of the effective quark-quark interaction. We discuss in detail how a general parametrization of the mass matrix depends on the mixing angles and is constrained by the assumptions on the effective quark-quark interaction. We find that, within the present experimental uncertainties, consistency with the best values of the mixing angles as determined by a recent global fit to masses and decays does not exclude any of the two most extreme possibilities of flavor-dependent (-independent) quark-quark interactions, as generated by meson (gluon) exchange interactions. © 2016 American Physical Society. |
