Particular attention is paid to the finite-volume corrections and the finite lattice spacing effects on the baryon masses. A reasonable description of all the publicly available $n_f=2+1$ lattice QCD data is achieved.Utilyzing the Feynman-Hellmann theorem, we determine the nucleon sigma terms as $\\sigma_{\\pi N}=55(1)(4)$ MeV and $\\sigma_{sN}=27(27)(4)$ MeV.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-05-20T08:28:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12.39.Fe", "12.38.Gc", "14.20.Gk" ], "keywords": [ "covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory", "octet baryon masses", "sigma terms", "lattice qcd data", "virtual decuplet contributions" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1142/9789814618229_0033" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1297231, "adsabs": "2015cshn.conv..181R" } } }
