Electric quadrupole moments of the decuplet baryons in the Skyrme model

The electric quadrupole moments of the decuplet baryons are calculated in the bound state approach of the Skyrme model. In this approach, all the quadrupole moments of the decuplets are found to be proportional to the third component of the baryon isospin. Contrary to the SU(3) collective model, the kaonic contribution is as important as the pionic one. The transitional quadrupole moments of the hyperons are also predicted.
