Abstract

We investigate static properties of constituent quark solitons in an affective SU(Nc×Nf)L×SU(Nc×Nf)R chiral Lagrangian previously conjectured to describe the dynamics of QCD inside the confinement scale. The constituent mass arises from the energy of the static soliton, and from quantum effects described semiclassicallyby rotation around the classical solution. The quantum effects tend to be large, but can be controlled by exploring the Lagrangian's parameter space so as to maximize the inertia tensor. We comment on the acceptable parameter space and discuss the model's further predictive power.
