Abstract

A canonical quantization of the skyrmion with ω-mesons is presented using Dirac theory of quantization under constraints. After removing the spurious spin-isospin zero modes from the meson spectrum, an explicit meson-nucleon hamiltonian is constructed. In the strong ω-coupling limit the semi-classical results are recovered. The relevance of this approach to low-energy meson-nucleon physics is stressed.
