Baryonic masses based on the NJL model

arXiv:nucl-th/0206071 · doi:10.1140/epja/i2002-10088-6

Abstract

We employ the Nambu Jona--Lasinio model to determine the vacuum pressure on the quarks in a baryon and hence their density inside. Then we estimate the baryonic masses by implementing the local density approximation for the mean field quark energies obtained in a uniform and isotropic system. We obtain a fair agreement with the experimental masses.
