Cy. Wen et Wyp. Hwang, RHO-NN AND OMEGA-NN COUPLINGS IN THE EXTERNAL-FIELD QCD SUM-RULE METHOD, Physical review. C. Nuclear physics, 56(6), 1997, pp. 3346-3352
We extend the method of QCD sum rules in external fields to determine
the rho NN and omega NN strong couplings, including both the vector an
d tensor couplings. Such information has been used for years in the co
nstruction of nuclear potentials, but our attempt represents the first
direct contact with QCD in terms of the basic parameters associated w
ith the nontrivial QCD vacuum.
