For particles near their decay threshold we show that the application of a small external magnetic field changes the particle's energy in a non-analytic way. Conventional electromagnetic moments are only well-defined when the background field B satisfies |eB|/(2M_*|M_*-M-m|) where M_* is the mass of the resonance and M, m the masses of the decay products. An application of this situation is the chiral extrapolation of Delta(1232)-isobar electromagnetic properties. We discuss such an extrapolation of the Delta(1232)-isobar magnetic dipole, electric quadrupole and magnetic octupole moments by a covariant chiral effective field theory.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-04-19T20:47:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12.38.Gc", "11.30.Rd", "21.10.Ky", "11.10.Ef" ], "keywords": [ "electromagnetic moments", "quasi-stable baryons", "small external magnetic field changes", "chiral extrapolation", "covariant chiral effective field theory" ], "tags": [ "conference paper", "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1063/1.3647161" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 896870, "adsabs": "2011AIPC.1374..366L" } } }
