Magnetic moments of heavy baryons in the Skyrme model

Abstract

We calculate the magnetic moments of heavy baryons in the Skyrme model in the limit of infinite heavy quark mass. We show that the Skyrme model yields the same limit as the nonrelativistic quark model when heavy vector mesons are treated properly. The essential role of the magnetic moment coupling terms in the electromagnetic interactions of heavy mesons is discussed.
