Classifying Reported and "Missing" Resonances According to Their P and C Properties
The Hilbert space ℋ3q of the three quarks with one excited quark is decomposed into Lorentz group representations. It is shown that the quantum numbers of the reported and "missing" resonances fall apart and populate distinct representations that differ by their parity or/and charge conjugation properties. In this way, reported and "missing" resonances become distinguishable. For example, resonances from the full listing reported by the Particle Data Group are accommodated by Rarita–Schwinger (RS) type representations [Formula: see text] with k=1, 3, and 5, the highest spin states being J=3/2-, 7/2+, and 11/2+, respectively. In contrast to this, most of the "missing" resonances fall into t…
Lorentz Multiplet Structure of Baryon Spectra and Relativistic Description
The pole positions of the various baryon resonances are known to reveal well-pronounced clustering, so-called Hoehler clusters. For nonstrange baryons the Hoehler clusters are shown to be identical to Lorentz multiplets of the type (j,j)*[(1/2,0)+(0,1/2)] with j being a half-integer. For the Lambda hyperons below 1800 MeV these clusters are shown to be of the type [(1,0)+ (0,1)]*[(1/2,0)+(0,1/2)] while above 1800 MeV they are parity duplicated (J,0)+(0,J) (Weinberg-Ahluwalia) states. Therefore, for Lambda hyperons the restoration of chiral symmetry takes place above 1800 MeV. Finally, it is demonstrated that the description of spin-3/2 particles in terms of a 2nd rank antisymmetric Lorentz …
Pion electroproduction in the 3He(e,é π+)3H reaction at intermediate energies
Abstract The differential coincident pion electroproduction cross section in the 3 He(e,e π + ) 3 H reaction has been measured with high resolution with the three-spectrometer set-up at the Mainz Microtron (MAMI) electron accelerator. Measurements were performed at the four incident energies E 0 = 855, 675, 600, and 555 MeV at fixed four-momentum transfer Q 2 = 0.045 GeV 2 , with the pions detected in parallel kinematics. This enables a separation of the measured cross section into the transverse and longitudinal structure functions by means of the Rosenbluth method. The experimental data are compared to model calculations, in which the elementary pion production amplitude includes the stan…
Proton Spin in Chiral Quark Models
The spin and flavor fractions of constituent quarks in the proton are obtained from their chiral fluctuations involving Goldstone bosons. SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking suggested by the mass difference between the strange and up, down quarks is included, and this improves the agreement with the data markedly.
