Description

We perform a semiclassical quantization of weak skyrmions, classically stable solutions present in effective models of the weak interactions. In particular, we discuss the collective quantization of the zero modes associated with spatial and weak ''vector'' isospin rotations. We determine the collective rotational and vibrational excitation energies of weak skyrmions. (orig.)
