Abstract

The electromagnetic mass differences of p, n and Δ⁺⁺, Δ⁺, Δ⁰, Δ^- are evaluated in the Skyrme model. In order to explain the observed proton-neutron mass difference, a new term which corresponds to the down-up quark mass difference has to be introduced. With M_p = M_n as an input which requires m_d-m_u = 2 MeV, we predict the mass differences M_Δ⁺⁺-M_Δ⁺, M_Δ⁺-M_Δ⁰ and M_Δ⁰-M_Δ^-.
