Isospin Breaking Effects in the 2-Flavor Schwinger Model
Abstract
The automatic fine-tuning of isospin breaking effects by conformal coalescence found by Georgi in the 2-flavor Schwinger model is studied. The analytical results obtained for the bosonic correlators are elaborated and the mass splitting parameter in leading order determined. Numerical investigation of meson mass splitting confirms the exponential suppression of symmetry breaking effects even for mass differences δ m near the fermion mass mf.
