The width of the
exotic baryon in the chiral soliton model
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Center for Theoretical Physics, Laboratory for Nuclear Science and Department of Physics, 02139, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
In 1997 Diakonov, Petrov, and Polyakov, calculated the width of the exotic baryon that they called . The prediction,
MeV, has received considerable attention, especially in light of the narrowness of the experimentally reported
resonance. However, there is an arithmetic error in their work: when corrected, the width estimate quoted in that paper should have been
MeV.
