Description

Topologically stable solitonic solutions to Skyrme's chiral-invariant Lagrangian have been obtained numerically. The single parameter in these solutions has been determined with the Goldberger-Treiman relation. The identification of these objects with baryons leads to sensible statements regarding the sizes and energies of baryons as well as the two- and three-body interactions between baryons at zero separation
