Abstract
We compute pion-nucleon scattering at tree-level within a gauged linear sigma model which contains the nucleon and its chiral partner. Such an investigation in principle allows to make definite predictions as to whether the main contribution to the nucleon mass comes from the chiral condensate or from the mixing with its chiral partner. We find that there seems to be no set of model parameters that allows for a simultaneous description of all experimentally measured scattering lengths and range parameters. This indicates the need to improve the dynamical ingredients of the model.
