Recent Developments in one and two Pion Production in Elementary Reactions and Few-Body Systems
1995
In this talk we cover several issues concerning pion production. The first one is the pp → ppπ 0 reaction where an alternative explanation based on the off shell extrapolation of the πN amplitude is offered. A recent model for the γN → ππN reaction is presented and a new kind of exchange current is constructed from it which allows one to address problems like double ∆ photoproduction from the deuteron. Finally the (γ, ππ) reaction in nuclei is studied and shown to be highly sensitive to the renormalization of the pions in nuclei.
Double Pion Production Reactions
1999
We report on reactions producing two pions induced by real and virtual photons or nucleons. The role of different resonances in these reactions is emphasized. Novel results on coherent 2π photoproduction in nuclei are also reported.
Inclusive production ofp-resonaces in πN-interactions
1991
A theoretical analysis of the inclusive production ofp-mesons in πN-collisions is carried out. It is shown that the reggeized pion exchange mechanism describes well a large set of the experimental data in the region of the Feynman variablex>0.6. The combination with the model of quark-gluon strings leads to a good agreement with the experiment for allx. The inclusive production of high spin resonances is discussed.
Theories relating baryon asymmetry and dark matter
2014
The nature of dark matter and the origin of the baryon asymmetry are two of the deepest mysteries of modern particle physics. In the absence of hints regarding a possible solution to these mysteries, many approaches have been developed to tackle them simultaneously leading to very diverse and rich models. We give a short review where we describe the general features of some of these models and an overview on the general problem. We also propose a diagrammatic notation to label the different models.
Phase Transitions in Polymeric Systems
1995
The study of collective phenomena in polymeric systems is a particular challenge,because there occurs structure simultaneously on many length scales. Restricting attention to neutral flexible linear macromolecules, we disregard here interesting problems like polyelectrolytes, stiff chains or chains with stiff parts, branched chains and polymer networks, and all combinations thereof including e.g. liquid crystalline polymers, and treat only the simplest case. But already then there occurs structure from the scale of a covalent bond along the backbone of a chain (~ 1 A) over the scale of the persistence length (~ 10 A) to the coil gyration radius R g (~ 102 A), in the description of a single …
Elastic properties, structures and phase transitions in model colloids
2004
The nature of the melting transition for a system of hard discs with translational degrees of freedom in two spatial dimensions has been analysed by a combination of computer simulation methods and a finite size scaling technique. The behaviour of the system is consistent with the predictions of the Kosterlitz–Thouless–Halperin–Nelson–Young (KTHNY) theory. The structural and elastic properties of binary colloidal mixtures in two and three spatial dimensions are discussed as well as those of colloidal systems with quenched point impurities. Hard and soft discs in external periodic (light-) fields show rich phase diagrams including freezing and melting transitions when the density of the syst…
Thermal disorder driven magnetic phases in van der Waals magnet CrI3
2020
Abstract Magnetic phase transitions often occur spontaneously at specific critical temperatures and are instrumental to understand the origin of long-range spin order in condensed matter systems. The presence of more than one critical temperature (Tc) has been observed in several compounds where the coexistence of competing magnetic orders highlights the importance of phase separation driven by different factors such as pressure, temperature and chemical composition. However, it is unknown whether recently discovered two-dimensional (2D) van der Walls (vdW) magnetic materials show such intriguing phenomena that can result in rich phase diagrams with novel magnetic features to be explored. H…
Phase Transitions in Multicomponent Widom-Rowlinson Models
1995
We use Monte Carlo techniques to study the phase diagram of multicomponent Widom-Rowlinson models on a square lattice: there are M species all with the same fugacity z and a nearest neighbor hard core exclusion between unlike particles. For M between two and six there is a direct transition from the gas phase at z z d (M). For M ≥ 7 there is an intermediate ordered phase in which the even (or odd) sublattice is occupied preferentially by particles chosen at random from any of the species. The existence of such an intermediate phase was proven earlier for M ≥ M 0, M 0 very large. Exact calculations on the Bethe lattice give M0 = 4.
Realization of a two-dimensional Ising system: Deuterium physisorbed on krypton-preplated graphite
2004
Volumetric adsorption isotherm, calorimetric, and neutron diffraction measurements were used to characterize the quantum system ${\mathrm{D}}_{2}$ coadsorbed on graphite preplated by a monolayer of Kr. From the results obtained by these methods a detailed phase diagram of the complete submonolayer coverage range up to the initial stages of bilayer formation could be constructed. The dominant feature of the phase diagram is a commensurate $(1\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}1)[\frac{1}{2}]$ structure, which was determined by neutron diffraction. Three phase transitions of this phase were studied: The order-disorder transition at the critical point which, according to the influence of the co…
Monte Carlo studies of adsorbed monolayers: Lattice-gas models with translational degrees of freedom
1998
Standard lattice-gas models for the description of the phase behavior of adsorbed monolayers are generalized to ``elastic lattice gases'' which allow for translational degrees of freedom of the adsorbate atoms but have the substrate lattice structure built into the adsorbate-adsorbate interaction. For such models, we derive a simple and efficient grand-canonical Monte Carlo algorithm, which treats the occupied and empty sites in precisely the same way. Using this method, we calculate the phase diagram of a simple model for the adsorption of hydrogen on palladium (100); this model includes only pairwise interactions and exhibits an ordered $c(2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}2)$ structure.…
