Abstract In the past, the axion-nucleon coupling has been calculated in the framework of SU(2) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory up to third order in the chiral power counting. Here, we extend these earlier studies to the case of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory with SU(3) flavor symmetry and derive the axion coupling to the full SU(3) baryon octet, showing that the axion also significantly couples to hyperons. As studies on dense nuclear matter suggest the possible existence of hyperons in stellar objects such as neutron stars, our results should have phenomenological implications related to the so-called axion window.

Good Agreement

Numerical solutions of the nonlinear problem of the steady two-dimensional potential flow past a submerged line vortex are obtained using the finite-difference iterative technique previously presented by the authors. These solutions are compared in detail with third-order perturbation theory solutions. It is found that very good agreement is obtained for cases of positive circulation of the vortex with strength large enough to produce downstream waves whose steepness is within 15 percent of the maximum possible steepness of irrotational free waves. These computed waves are as steep as the steepest waves obtained in a certain experiment involving the flow past a two-dimensional hydrofoil. For negative circulation, there is substantial difference between the numerical results and third-order perturbation theory. The failure of the perturbation theory is discussed. Details of the far-downstream wave system obtained by the numerical method are compared with other numerical solutions and very high-order perturbation theory solutions of the free-wave problem. Very good agreement is obtained in most cases.
