Ground state baryon magnetic moments and nucleon axial vector coupling

Ground-state baryon magnetic moments and nucleon axial vector coupling are calculated usingqcd inspired configuration mixing and relativistic corrections. Unlike earlier attempts, we incorporate a natural mass scale for quarks, taken as one third the nucleon mass for up and down quarks, and the strange quark mass suggested by the Lipkin’s sum rule. In the parameter-free non-relativistic limit, we find a fairly good fit, which improves upon including relativistic corrections.
