Description

We perform a collective coordinate quantization of the classically stable baryon-number-two skyrmion in SU(3). We show that a relation between the number of colors and flavor triality of the dibaryons is generated by the Wess-Zumino term. The Skyrme model parameters are determined by using the baryon number one results. The dibaryon mass spectrum in the chiral limit is then obtained (in GeV): M=1.5+0.049 C1+0.009J(J+1), where C1 is the quadratic Casimir of flavor SU(3) and J is the spin. We compare our results with quark model expectations. (orig.)
