Description

We investigate nucleon mass splitting at finite isospin chemical potential in the frame of the two-flavour Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. It is analytically proven that in the phase with explicit isospin symmetry breaking, the proton mass decreases and the neutron mass increases linearly in the isospin chemical potential. (authors)
