Two Skyrmion Dynamics with Omega Mesons

Abstract

We present our first results of numerical simulations of two skyrmion dynamics using an $\omega$-meson stabilized effective Lagrangian. We consider skyrmion-skyrmion scattering with a fixed initial velocity of $\beta =0.5$, for various impact parameters and groomings. The physical picture that emerges is surprisingly rich, while consistent with previous results and general conservation laws. We find meson radiation, skyrmion scattering out of the scattering plane, orbiting and capture to bound states.
