SIG II - 26-30 May 2014

Near BPS skyrmions

Lectures on skyrmions, their mathematical properties and applications to baryon physics and atomic nuclei.

The meeting is devoted on furhter investigation of BPS and near BPS Skyrme theories and their relevance for the description of the low energy regime of QCD. Planed topics are:
  • pressure in the Skyrme models
  • nuclear compressibility and compression modulus
  • two and three body forces: field theoretical approach and nuclear phenomenology
  • skyrmions on domain walls
