Observation of Meson-Exchange Effects in Deuteron Electrodisintegration
1976
Electrodisintegration of the deuteron has been measured for an incident energy of 300 MeV at 30\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} and 90\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} scattering angles. The maximum energy transfer was 116 MeV. Very good agreement with theory was achieved when the pionic-exchange currents were included. Near the threshold and for momentum transfer $\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\mathrm{q}}_{\mathrm{c}.\mathrm{m}.}^{}{}_{}{}^{2}=3.9$ ${\mathrm{fm}}^{\ensuremath{-}2}$, the meson-exchange currents contribute about 40% to the total cross section.
Effect of neutron halos on excited states of nuclei
2011
The differential cross sections of the inelastic scattering leading to the excitation of short-lived states in the stable ${}^{13}$C and ${}^{9}$Be nuclei as well as the radioactive ${}^{11}$Be nucleus have been analyzed. Signatures of neutron halos in the excited states located close to the neutron emission thresholds have been investigated by applying a recently developed modified diffraction model. The abnormally large rms radius was identified for the 3.089-MeV $1/{2}^{+}$ state of ${}^{13}$C. Significantly enlarged diffraction radii were found for the 1.68-MeV $1/{2}^{+}$ and the 3.05-MeV $5/{2}^{+}$ states of ${}^{9}$Be. The analysis of the diffraction radii of the weakly bound radioa…

Virtual Compton Scattering and Neutral Pion Electroproduction in the Resonance Region up to the Deep Inelastic Region at Backward Angles
2009
We have made the first measurements of the virtual Compton scattering (VCS) process via the H$(e,e'p)\gamma$ exclusive reaction in the nucleon resonance region, at backward angles. Results are presented for the $W$-dependence at fixed $Q^2=1$ GeV$^2$, and for the $Q^2$-dependence at fixed $W$ near 1.5 GeV. The VCS data show resonant structures in the first and second resonance regions. The observed $Q^2$-dependence is smooth. The measured ratio of H$(e,e'p)\gamma$ to H$(e,e'p)\pi^0$ cross sections emphasizes the different sensitivity of these two reactions to the various nucleon resonances. Finally, when compared to Real Compton Scattering (RCS) at high energy and large angles, our VCS data…
The influence of the nuclear medium on inclusive electron and neutrino scattering off nuclei
2007
We present a model for inclusive electron and neutrino scattering off nuclei paying special attention to the influence of in-medium effects on the quasi-elastic scattering and pion-production mechanisms. Our results for electron scattering off Oxygen are compared to experimental data at beam energies ranging from 0.7-1.5 GeV. The good description of electron scattering serves as a benchmark for neutrino scattering.
A low energy bound atomic electron Compton scattering model for Geant4
2014
Abstract A two-body fully relativistic three-dimensional scattering framework has been utilised to develop an alternative Compton scattering computational model to those adapted from Ribberfors’ work for Monte Carlo modelling of Compton scattering. Using a theoretical foundation that ensures the conservation of energy and momentum in the relativistic impulse approximation, this new model, the Monash University Compton scattering model, develops energy and directional algorithms for both the scattered photon and ejected Compton electron from first principles. The Monash University Compton scattering model was developed to address the limitation of the Compton electron directionality algorith…

Proton-Hydrogen Charge Exchange and Elastic Scattering in the Faddeev Approach
2000
Results of the application of Faddeev-type integral equations to proton-hydrogen collisions are reported. The approach, realized in the impact parameter representation, incorporates the exact two-particle off-shell Coulomb T-matrices in all ‘triangle’ contributions to the effective potentials. Calculatedtotal and differential electron-transfer as well as differential elastic scattering cross sections show very good agreement with experiment, over a wide range of incident energies.
Dark-matter detection by elastic and inelastic LSP scattering on 129Xe and 131Xe
2008
Abstract We calculate the nuclear matrix elements involved in the elastic and inelastic scattering of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) on the 129Xe and 131Xe dark-matter detector nuclei. This is the first time when both channels are addressed within the same unified microscopic nuclear framework, namely we perform large-scale shell-model calculations with a realistic two-body interaction to produce the participant nuclear wave functions. These wave functions successfully reproduce the spectroscopic data on the relevant magnetic moments and M1 decays. The tested wave functions are used to produce annual average detection rates for both the elastic and inelastic channels. It is foun…
Scattering Matrix and Observables in Scattering and Decays
2013
As an interlude in the analysis of canonical field quantization, this section describes important concepts of scattering theory for Lorentz covariant quantum field theories that will be needed for the calculation of observables such as scattering cross sections and decay probabilities.
