Systematics of. pi. N scattering in chiral soliton models

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. D; (United States)
We study the spin and isospin structure of pion-nucleon scattering amplitudes in the class of models, including the Skyrme model, in which the nucleon arises as a soliton built of pion fields. We derive general energy-independent linear relations among partial-wave amplitudes for the processes ..pi..N..--> pi..N and ..pi..N..--> pi delta.. and show that these relations are in reasonably good agreement with experiment.
