Breaking SU3f Spontaneously Down to Isospin
Abstract
Description
The mechanism where flavour symmetry is broken spontaneously is demonstated for a model involving nonets of pseudoscalar and vector mesons. Degenerate bare nonets of vector and pseudoscalar mesons coupling sufficiently strongly to each others lead to unstable self-consistency equations, such that the SU3$_f$ symmetric spectrum breaks down into a stable isospin symmetric mass spectrum similar to the physical spectrum.
