Energy levels of soliton-heavy-meson bound states.

Abstract

We investigate the bound states of heavy mesons with finite masses to a classical soliton solution in the Skyrme model. For a given model Lagrangian we solve the equations of motion exactly so that the heavy vector mesons are treated on the same footing as the heavy pseudoscalar mesons. All the energy levels of higher grand spin states as well as the ground state are given over a wide range of the heavy meson masses. We also examine the validity of the approximations used in the literatures. The recoil effect of finite mass soliton is naively estimated.
