’t Hooft anomaly matching and massless baryons

In Lectures on Gauge Theory by David Tong there is statement (section 5.6.3 The Vafa-Witten-Weingarten Theorems), that: To invoke the full power of ’t Hooft anomaly matching, we needed to assume that ...

Nuclei violating B number

Within SM, it is know that baryon number is not preserved and changes as $$ \Delta B = 3·\Delta n_{CS}, \quad n_{CS} \in \mathbb{Z}\ ({\rm Chern-Simons\ index\ for\ vacuum}) \tag1$$ Then, its ...

B violation and electric charge

Within SM you can prove that despite we have baryon number conservation respect to Noether theorem, at quantum level baryon (and lepton) number is violated as $$ \Delta B = 3·\Delta n_{CS}, \quad n_{...
