Baryons and nuclei as skyrmions

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The topological soliton model, including its various extensions, is reviewed. The model is very compact and involves only small number of Lagrangian parameters which in principle are calculable from QCD. It provides a nice tool for describing the structure of baryons.
