Baryon Magnetic Moments in a Relativistic Quark Model Simon Capstick Supercomputer Computations Research Institute and Department of Physics, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 3306 B. D. Keister Department of Physics, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA 53 (November 9, 996) Abstract Magnetic moments of baryons in the ground-state octet and decuplet are calculated in a light-front framework. We investigate the eects of quark mass variation both in the current operator and in the wavefunctions. A simple t uses single oscillator wavefunctions for the baryons and allows the three avors of quark to have nonzero anomalous magnetic moments. We nd a good t to the data without allowing for strange quark contributions to the nucleon moments. A slightly better t is obtained by allowing for explicit SU(3) f breaking in the wavefunctions through a simple mechanism. The predictions for magnetic moments in our relativistic model are also much less sensitive to the values chosen for the constituent quark masses than those of nonrelativistic models. Relativistic eects can be of order 0% in general, and can alter familiar relationships between the moments based on SU(3) f and a nonrelativistic treatment of spin. Typeset using REVTEX

I. INTRODUCTION In the simple additive quark model without sea quark degrees of freedom, and in the nonrelativistic limit, the magnetic moments of the baryons considered here are given by p = 4 3 u 3 d; n = 4 3 d 3 u = s + = 4 3 u 0 = 4 3 s 3 s; 0! = p3 0 ( u d ); = 4 3 d 3 u; = 4 3 s 3 s 3 d () ++ =3 u ; += u + d ; 0= d + u ; =3 d += u + s ; 0= u + d + s ; = d + s 0= s + u ; = s + d =3 s : These equations are generalized by Karl [] to include possible contributions of a polarized strange quark sea to the magnetic moments of the nucleons. Since his model is based on the assumption of SU(3) f symmetry among the ground state baryons, the presence of this polarized strange quark sea implies additional contributions to the moments of other baryons. These generalized Sehgal equations [] reduce to Eqs. () by using the nonrelativistic quark model values of u = 4 3, d =, and s =0,where the q are the contributions of the 3 quarks (and of antiquarks of the same avor, in general) of a given avor to the axial-vector current of the proton for which g A =u d=5=3. The 0! 0 moment is a transition magnetic moment which is extracted from measurements of the amplitudes for the decay 0! 0 (see Ref. [3] and Appendix A). Note that the physical 0 and 0 states are not pure avor eigenstates but are mixed by isospin-breaking interactions, and we consider the eects of this mixing on both the 0 moment and this transition moment. Of the decuplet moments only those of the ++ and are known; the ++ moment is extracted (with some uncertainty) from + p bremsstrahlung data [4].

A constituent quark model represents a signicant truncation of a Lagrangian eld theory like QCD, but it captures many important degrees of freedom and permits a systematic analysis of a large body of data. The parameters of the model should be interpreted as those of the original current quarks, but substantially dressed by nonperturbative eects of QCD. Thus, one would expect that the quark masses and other properties such as their magnetic moments would be substantially renormalized. Eqs. () allow the inclusion of anomalous magnetic moments for the quarks, if the three quark moments u, d, and s are considered as free parameters. Note that the eective additive magnetic moment of a strange quark is assumed to be the same, for example, in the 0 state (where the other quarks are light) and in the state (composed entirely of strange quarks). As pointed out by Karl, this assumption may not hold if the sizes of the baryons are dependent on their quark structure [which introduces explicit breaking of SU(3) f ]. It is also possible that relativistic eects, both kinematical and dynamical, can modify these relations. Our calculation allows us to explore these possibilities in a simple way. Previous relativistic work based on light-front dynamics [5{9] has shown that it is impossible to t simultaneously the proton and neutron magnetic moments without some sort of modication of the quark model parameters. These calculations were also carried out in the absence of a strange quark contribution to the proton electromagnetic currents. They employed a Gaussian wave function for the nucleons of the form exp[ M 0 = ], where M 0 is the non-interacting mass of the three-quark system and is a size parameter [0], which permits simple analytic calculations but which cannot easily be extended to a complete set of orthonormal wave functions which can be mixed via a realistic interaction. Aznauryan, et al., considered magnetic moments and weak decay constants in the baryon octet, varying the anomalous quark moments to achieve a t [5]. Tupper, et al. [6], Chung and Coester [8], and Cardarelli, et al. [9] examined the sensitivity of the ts to variations in the quark parameters (mass, anomalous moment, etc.). For some reasonable values of the baryon parameters, this meant adopting anomalous moments for the light quarks which are not proportional to their charges. Schlumpf calculated magnetic moments and weak decay constants in the 3

baryon octet [7] and decuplet [], and varied the size parameter separately for the two subclusters in the three-quark system, i.e., a quark-diquark picture. Our approach is similar to several of the earlier works cited above, except that we provide further generality to the calculations. In particular, we study the eects of unequal quark masses, not just in the quark magnetic moments, but in the wave functions and current matrix elements. The spatial wavefunctions are oscillator ground states characterized at rst by a single momentum parameter, but then are given two momentum parameters which depend kinematically upon the quark masses. We calculate magnetic moments in a light-front framework for the entire ground state baryon octet and decuplet. We also discuss our results in light of some recent direct calculations of quark anomalous magnetic moments via meson loops. II. OUTLINE OF CALCULATION The elements of the calculation of baryon light-front current matrix elements are described in detail in Ref. []. We present here a brief summary of the important features of the calculation of matrix elements and the extraction of magnetic moments. Free-particle state vectors j~pi are labeled by the light-front vector ~p = (p + ; p? ) and are normalized as follows: h~p 0 0 j~pi =() 3 0 (~p 0 ~p): () A calculation of the matrix elements hmj; ~ P 0 0 ji + (0)jMj; ~ Pi!h ~ P 0 0 ji + (0)j ~ Pi (3) is sucient to determine all Lorentz-invariant form factors for a baryon of mass M and spin j. The current operator is taken to be the sum of single-quark operators with light-front spinor matrix elements given by h~p 0 0 ji + (0)j~pi = F q (Q ) 0 Q i( y ) 0 m F q(q ); (4) 4

where Q ' p q q. The momentum wavefunctions are expressed as follows: h~p ~p ~p 3 3 j Pi= ~ @(~p ; ~p ; ~p 3 ) @( P; ~ k ; k ) () 3 (~p + ~p + ~p 3 ~ P) h js ihs 3 js s ihl l jl L ihl L s s jji Y l (^k )Y l ( ^K )(k ;K ) [R cf (k )]D ( )y [R cf (k )]D ( )y 3 3 [R cf (k 3 )]; (5) D ( )y where the i are light-front quark spin projections, ~p i the light-front quark momenta, (k ;K ) is the orbital momentum wavefunction, and R cf (k 3 ) is a Melosh rotation: R cf (k) = (p+ +m) i^np? : (6) [p + (p 0 + m)] The quantum numbers of the state vectors correspond to irreducible representations of the permutation group. The spins (s ;s) can have the values (0; ), (; ) and (; 3 ), corresponding to quark-spin wavefunctions with mixed symmetry ( and ) and total symmetry ( S ), respectively. The momenta k p (k k ) K p 6 (k + k k 3 ) (7) preserve the appropriate symmetries under various exchanges of k, k and k 3, the quark three-momenta in the baryon rest frame. The set of state vectors formed using Eq. (5) and Gaussian functions of the momentum variables dened in Eq. (7) is complete and orthonormal. Since they are eigenfunctions of the overall spin, they satisfy the relevant rotational covariance properties. For this work, the spatial wavefunctions are taken to be oscillator ground states of the form (k ;K )= 3 3 3 e k + K ; (8) where and are for the moment set equal to a single parameter for all of the states considered. Later we consider the eects of allowing and to vary by means of a simple 5

(nonrelativistic harmonic oscillator) formula in terms of the masses of the quarks involved. We will show in what follows that the dependence of our results for magnetic moments on the form of the spatial wavefunctions (through the oscillator parameters) is weak, which partially justies our use of these simple wavefunctions. The set of state vectors formed using Eq. (5) and Gaussian functions of the momentum variables dened in Eq. (7) is complete and orthonormal. Since they are eigenfunctions of the overall spin, they satisfy the relevant rotational covariance properties. While the matrix elements of I + (0) are sucient to determine all form factors, they are in fact not independent of each other. Parity considerations imply that h ~ P 0 0 ji + (0)j ~ P i =( ) 0 h ~ P 0 0 ji + (0)j ~ Pi (9) This cuts the number of independent matrix elements in half. For elastic scattering, timereversal symmetry provides another constraint: h ~ P 0 ji + (0)j ~ P 0 i =( ) 0 h ~ P 0 0 ji + (0)j ~ Pi (0) In addition, there can be constraints which come from the requirement of rotational covariance of the current operator. These can be expressed in terms of relations among the matrix elements of I + (0) [3]: where X 0 D jy 0 0(R0 ch)h ~ P 0 0 ji + (0)j ~ PiD j (R ch )=0; j 0 j; () R ch = R cf ( P;M)R ~ y ( ); R0 ch = R cf ( P ~ 0 ;M)R y ( ): () For J = + baryons, there are four matrix elements of I + (0), of which only two are independent due to parity symmetry. Because j =, there is no nontrivial constraint due to rotational covariance. The baryon form factors F and F are determined directly via h ~ P 0 0 ji + (0)j ~ Pi = F (Q ) 0 Q i( y ) 0 M F (Q ): (3) 6

For J = 3 + baryons, there are 6 matrix elements of I + (0), of which eight are independent due to parity symmetry. Time-reversal symmetry eliminates two more matrix elements. Thus, there are six independent matrix elements of I +, which can be chosen without loss of generality to be h+ 3 ji+ (0)j 3i, h+ 3jI + (0)j i and h+ ji + (0)j i. There are three constraints due to rotational covariance, but one of these is redundant due to time-reversal symmetry. Thus, only four of the above six matrix elements should be truly independent under rotational symmetry. For the results reported here, we choose the matrix elements h+ ji + (0)j i, h+ 3jI + (0)j+ i and h+ 3jI + (0)j+ 3 i, since they correspond to the lowest light-front spin transfer values. Full rotational symmetry is a dynamical constraint on light-front calculations, and can only be fully satised by introducing two-body current matrix elements. However, the constraint due to rotational covariance is proportional to Q as Q! 0. This means that it has no eect on calculations of magnetic moments. Nevertheless, there can still be relativistic eects of O(Q), i.e., to arbitrary order in =m. Extraction of the magnetic moment of J P = 3 + states proceeds by calculation of the relativistic canonical-spin matrix elements of the operator is X q, where S X is the spin of the baryon X f; g. The Sachs form factors of the X state are dened in terms of canonical spins by the relation [4] chxp 0 s 0 ji(0)jxpsi c = e M X h y X;s "G X 0 E0 + G X E S [] q [] q []i [0] P h S [3] X q [] q []i!

RESULTS As a direct measure of the size of relativistic eects in the calculation of the baryon magnetic moments, we show intable I a comparison between magnetic moments calculated using the nonrelativistic formulae of Eqs. () and our relativistic approach. We have restricted this calculation to baryons for which moment data exist, using the quark masses m u;d = 330 MeV and m s = 550 MeV [chosen roughly to t the moments using the nonrelativistic formulae in Eqs. ()] and = = 0:4 GeV in our relativistic calculation, and have found the corresponding nonrelativistic moments using Eqs. (). This value of harmonic oscillator parameter has been shown roughly to t the nucleon form factors when calculated in a relativistic model with single-oscillator wavefunctions in Ref. []. Note that the relativistic calculation uses the physical mass for the baryon, rather than the sum of the quark masses, when calculating kinematical quantities. Interactions between the quarks which distinguish between the u and d quarks can cause an isospin-violating mixing between the 0 and 0. As the two-state mixing angle is about +0.035 radians [7], the physical states 0 and 0 can to a good approximation be written in terms of the SU(3) f avor eigenstates 0 and 0 as 0 = 0 0 0 = 0 + 0 : (8) This mixing aects the 0 moment as well as the 0! 0 transition moment (and in principle also the unmeasured 0 moment) by 8

0 = 0 + 0! 0 0! 0 = 0! 0 + ( 0 0) : (9) The results shown for 0 and 0!0 in Table I (and below intable II) are inclusive of the mixing correction to the avor eigenstate moments which we calculate in our model. The eect is to lower 0 by about -0.04 N, and raise 0! 0 by between 0.0 and 0.0 N. The second column in Table II shows the result of reducing the constituent quark masses to m u;d = 0 MeV and m s = 49 MeV, which are the values which t the meson and baryon spectra [8,9] and, more importantly, the mass splittings between the various charge states [0] in the relativized quark model. One clear advantage of our relativistic calculation is that the resulting magnetic moments are quite insensitive to the quark masses. For example, we see by comparing Table I with the second column in Table II that the proton magnetic moment changes from.4 N to.76 N (a 4% enhancement) when the inverse quark mass is raised by 50%. It is useful to discuss our results in light of the work of Chung and Coester [8], who t their relativistic calculation of the moments to a linear function of =m q, with m q the light quark mass, with the result (in units of nuclear magnetons): p (! ' M N m q 3 0:9 4 + m q 3 F u(0) (! n ' M N m q 3 0:5 + m q 4 3 F d(0)!) 3 F d(0) 0:097 mq!) 0:097 mq 3 F u(0) ; (0) where F q is the anomalous magnetic moment of the quark. Note that these formulae agree with the relations in Eqs. () in the limit =m q! 0 and when M N = 3m q if we take q = [e q + F q (0)]e=(m q ), where e u = +=3, e d = =3, etc. In these formulae the terms proportional to =m q are corrections from relativity to the contributions of the Dirac and Pauli moments of the quarks. Relativistic eects tend to reduce the baryon magnetic moments, the primary eect coming from Melosh rotations of the quarks. This fact has been known for some time [], and is reected in factors like ( k=m q ) in Eq. 0. Lowering the quark mass raises the 9

quark Dirac moment e q =m q but lowers this factor, with the result that the moment of the baryon is largely unaected, as seen in our calculated results. In Ref. [9] essentially the same procedure was adopted, but with more sophisticated conguration-mixed wavefunctions resulting from a global t to the spectrum [8]. These wavefunctions tend to have larger relativistic eects and so the nucleon anomalous moments, as we can see from Eq. (0), are reduced in magnitude, with the reduction in the neutron moment being larger than that in the proton moment. This is oset by adopting an anomalous magnetic moment for the down quark of F d (0) =: d = 0:53 and a smaller moment for the up quark of F u (0) =: u =0:085. Note that these are substantial anomalous moments, yielding quark moments of u =:3(+ 3 ) e m q and d =:46( 3 ) e m q. When we adopt baryon wavefunctions which all have the same spatial size the SU(6) symmetry represented by the relations from Eqs. () for the octet baryon magnetic moments is broken, but those relations partially apply to our relativistic decuplet baryon results. This is because the spin and spatial wavefunctions of the decuplet baryons have separate total permutational symmetry. One can think of each quark as providing an eective additive moment, as dened by Eqs. (). The eective additive moment of a quark depends on its environment, which in this case means the masses of the other quarks in the baryon. Fitting Eqs. () to our relativistic results in the second column of Table II yields the eective additive quark moments u = :8, d = 0:9 in the states, u = :77, d = 0:89, and s = 0:63 in the states, u =:75, d = 0:88, and s = 0:6 in the states, and s = 0:6 in the. Note that in all cases the eective additive moments of the light quarks are in the ratio of their charges. There is a slight dilution of the eective moments of the quarks when in the environment of heavier quarks. Our results appear to be consistent with those of McKellar et al. [6], who choose not to adopt anomalous moments for the quarks, but instead concentrate on examining the dependence of the moments on the masses of the light and strange quarks and the oscillator parameter. They conclude that there is no choice of and light-quark mass for which the nucleon moments are reproduced, and that a t to the octet data is not possible without 0

the inclusion of quark anomalous moments. In the third column of Table II we have shown the result of tting the nine precisely determined magnetic moments by allowing nonzero anomalous magnetic moments of the quarks (we did not allow the masses to vary from the values prescribed by Refs. [8{0], or vary the harmonic oscillator constant from the value.08 fm ). This three-parameter t reduces the root-mean-square deviation of the calculated moments from the nine precise data from 0.35 N to 0.076 N. The resulting quark anomalous moments are rather small: u = 0:0, d = 0:048, and s = 0:00 in units of quark magnetons [for each avor of quark q = F q (0), so that q is in units of q = e=m q, where e is the electron charge, see Eq. (4)]. Equivalently, if we dene a quark moment by q =[F q (0) + F q (0)] e m q, we have u =0:98(+ 3 ) e m u, d =:4( 3 ) e m d, and s =:06( 3 ) e m s. In the fourth column of Table II, we have shown the eects of adopting a simple nonrelativistic dependence of the harmonic oscillator size parameters on the masses of the quarks in the baryon, i.e. =(3Km) 4 ; =(3Km ) 4 ; () where m = m = m is the mass of the two equal mass quarks and m = 3mm 3 m + m 3 ; () where m 3 is the mass of the odd quark out. For strangeness-zero baryons we have used = =0:40 GeV when m = m 3 =0:0 GeV, so solving for 3K (K is the oscillator constant) we nd 3K =0:8 GeV 3. Note that this diers from the approach taken by Schlumpf [7,] who concentrated on calculating weak decay constants in terms of strongly asymmetric parameters, which imply signicant diquark clustering in the baryon wavefunctions. Such strong clustering in the wavefunctions does not arise in the relativized quark model of the spectrum of these states [8]. As can be seen from Table II, our results are largely insensitive to changes in the wavefunction, here made through the simple mechanism of changing the harmonic oscillator scale.

This can be easily understood, as this scale only enters in the relativistic corrections to the formulae (). Equivalently, details of the wavefunction can only aect the size of the change in the moments due to relativistic corrections illustrated in Table I. However, a slightly better t to the moments is obtained when using these wavefunctions, with the result that the r.m.s. deviation from the data for the nine precisely measured moments is reduced to 0.068 N. The quark anomalous moments that give this t are essentially unchanged at u = 0:006, d = 0:047 and s = 0:0. Aznauryan et al. [5] performed a t to the 984 data for the moments of the octet baryons using anomalous moments for the quarks, and make predictions for weak decay constants. They adopt quark masses of m u;d = 7 MeV and m s = 397 MeV, and allow the parameter in the Gaussian wavefunction exp[ M 0 = ]tovary linearly with the average mass of the three quarks. Note that this choice of wavefunction does not allow and to dier, as is required by the solution of the dynamical problem. Their t to the octet moments is of similar quality to ours, with the exception of the 0! 0 transition moment, which is too small. The quark anomalous moments they nd for their t are u = 0:0, d = 0:059, and s = 0:06, similar to those found here. Our results for the decuplet baryon moments dier from those of Schlumpf [] due to our adoption of dierent quark masses. Schlumpf uses m u = m d = 60 MeV in his relativistic ts, which is signicantly larger than our 0 MeV, and an m s of 380 MeV which issmaller than our value of 49 MeV. The same is true of the quark masses used by Aznauryan et al. Our quark masses are motivated by relativized ts to the meson and baryon spectra [8,9], and to isospin violations in ground state meson and baryon masses. A dierence between the light and strange quark masses of 0 MeV may not be large enough to be consistent with these other constraints. The use of quark anomalous magnetic moments is intended to account for the fact that constituent degrees of freedom are eective, and that such quarks receive substantial QCD dressing. From the point of view of chiral symmetry, one could express such quark dressing in terms of pion loops. Several groups have investigated this possibility [{4]. In general,

the anomalous moments which result from pion loops are signicantly higher than those obtained in our phenomenological t. For example, recent results by Ito [4] give the ranges u = 0.0550{0.8 and d = -(0.083{0.438). His u has the opposite sign from our phenomenological t, and his d is several times our value. Using his values of u and d to compute baryon moments would give a worse t than one with no anomalous moments. On the other hand, Cohen and Weber nd large cancellations of pion loop contributions with other corrections to baryon magnetic moments []. The lesson from this is that a constituent quark model is not easily corrected by adding pion loops to describe QCD quark dressing. The physics of meson cloud eects in baryons was also studied from a general perspective of chiral symmetry by Cheng and Li [5,6]. They characterize eects of the quark sea in terms of parameters g 8 and g 0, corresponding to the contributions of SU(3) f pseudoscalar octet and singlet Goldstone bosons, respectively. They nd a reasonable t [5] to the measure of the quark contribution to the proton spin appearing in the Bjorken [7] and Ellis-Jae [8] sum rules, as well as to the magnetic moments of the baryon octet [6]. Such eects of the quark sea should also be considered in a relativistic quark model. Technically, the procedure will be much more dicult since, as we have seen, the quark moments do not enter in a simple additive fashion. Ma and Zhang nd substantial reductions of the proton spin matrix elements, related to the axial coupling g A, which enter the Bjorken [7] and Ellis-Jae [8] sum rules [9,30]. This property has also been noted by other authors [3]. Thus, the combined eects of relativity and the quark sea must be considered together. In that regard, it may be better to use a variation of the approach of Cheng and Li to parameterize the eect of the quark sea, rather than to compute specic meson loop contributions. 3

CONCLUSIONS We have seen that it is possible to achieve a quite satisfactory t to the measured ground state baryon magnetic moments with the inclusion of relativistic eects and allowing the constituent quarks to have nonzero anomalous moments. This seems reasonable given that the constituent quark is an eective degree of freedom, much like the nucleon when it is bound into a nucleus. A measure of the eectiveness of our model is to compare to a t using the simple additive model of Eqs. () and three arbitrary quark moments. The result of doing this is shown in Table II, with a root-mean-square deviation for the nine data of 0.00 N. Clearly our relativistic ts improve on this. The dierences are caused by the fact that, in a relativistic model, the moments of the quarks do not simply add to the moments of the baryons, as has been pointed out by many other authors [5{9,]. The anomalous moments obtained in our t can be thought of as quark sea eects which dress the eective degrees of freedom in such models. However, quark sea eects are not interchangeable with pion loop eects, as the actual numbers obtained in our t dier considerably from a direct calculation of baryon moment modications due to pion loops. Our results are comparable to the t to the moments achieved by Karl [] in the presence of a strange quark contribution to the magnetic moment of the nucleons. The root-meansquare deviation for his t to the eight octet moments is 0.084 N. We would conclude that it is possible to improve on a simple nonrelativistic t to the data without strange quark contributions to the magnetic moment of the nucleons. The results presented here can be expected to change with the adoption of mixed wavefunctions such as those of Ref. [8] used by Cardarelli et al., [9]. We have made some exploratory calculations of this type for the baryons for which data for their moments exist, and have found that it is impossible to achieve a t of the quality shown in Table II with the relativized model wavefunctions of Ref. [8]. On the other hand, the results of Ref. [9] also reveal that that these wavefunctions have large amplitudes at higher momentum, which may lead to an overprediction of relativistic eects. In Ref. [9], this behavior was oset by 4

giving the quarks quite soft momentum-dependent form factors. Another possibility is to consider quark wavefunctions which have smaller amplitudes at higher momentum. This question is presently under investigation. V.

VI. APPENDIX A: THE 0 TO 0 TRANSITION MOMENT In Ref. [3] the transition moment for 0 to 0 is dened to be " N = 8hM p M 3 (M M ) 3 ; (3) where is the lifetime of the 0 (which goes almost 00% through 0 ). In the Particle Data Group [6] the photon width of a resonance R decaying toanucleon is given by = k M N (J +)M R h ja j +ja3j i ; (4) where J is the spin of the decaying resonance and k is the photon c.m. decay momentum. Adapting this to the 0 to 0 decay, we have = k M ja M j ; (5) Replacing the lifetime in the rst equation by h, we have " N = M p k 3 ; (6) where k =(M M )=M is the c.m. frame decay momentum. 5

The result is that we can write the transition moment directly in terms of the helicity amplitude (calculated in the rest frame of the decaying 0 )as " N = M M p (M M) ja j : (7) 6
