Vibrational Sum Frequency Generation Spectroscopy of the Water Liquid–Vapor Interface from Density Functional Theory-Based Molecular Dynamics Simulat…
2013
International audience; The vibrational sum frequency generation (VSFG) spectrum of the water liquid-vapor (LV) interface is calculated using density functional theory-based molecular dynamics simulations. The real and imaginary parts of the spectrum are in good agreement with the experimental data, and we provide an assignment of the SFG bands according to the dipole orientation of the interfacial water molecules. We use an instantaneous definition of the surface, which is more adapted to the study of interfacial phenomena than the Gibbs dividing surface. By calculating the vibrational (infrared, Raman) properties for interfaces of varying thickness, we show that the bulk spectra signature…
A critical analysis on deeply bound kaonic states in nuclei
2005
We make a critical analysis on the theoretical calculations that lead to predictions of deeply bound kaonic states in nuclei. The model set-up, after dropping several important processes and channels, leads unavoidably to an unrealistic deep potential with a very small imaginary part. We review also the experimental results taken as reference for the claim of deeply bound kaons. We suggest that the peaks of the proton spectra come from $K^-$ absorption on a pair of nucleons, leaving the rest of the nucleons as spectators. Based on this conjecture we predict what would happen in other nuclei.
Accessing the real part of the forwardJ/ψ−pscattering amplitude fromJ/ψphotoproduction on protons around threshold
2016
We provide an updated analysis of the forward $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$-p scattering amplitude, relating its imaginary part to $\ensuremath{\gamma}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}J/\ensuremath{\psi}p$ and $\ensuremath{\gamma}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}c\overline{c}X$ cross section data, and calculating its real part through a once-subtracted dispersion relation. From a global fit to both differential and total cross section data, we extract a value for the spin-averaged $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$-p s-wave scattering length ${a}_{\ensuremath{\psi}p}=0.046\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.005\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{fm}$, which can be translated into a $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ binding energy in nuclear matter of ${B}_…
Pion-induced η production on nuclei
1990
Abstract Low-energy η production on nuclei is investigated in a DWIA framework, using a Green function method. The η potential is constructed by folding medium-modified η N → S 11 → η N scattering amplitudes with nuclear wave functions. A phenomenological spreading potential is introduced for the intermediate S 11 resonance. Calculated ( π + , p ) η cross sections on 12 C and 16 O with the spreading potential having an imaginary part of the order of −50 ∼ −100 MeV compare favorably with recent experimental data. It is also shown that the energy dependence of the ( π + , η ) inclusive spectra is nicely reproduced, though the magnitude is somewhat underestimated.
