Triangle singularity enhancing isospin violation in ${\bar{{\rm{B}}}}_{{\rm{s}}}^{0}\to {\rm{J}}/{\rm{\psi }}{\pi }^{0}{{\rm{f}}}_{0}(980)$
2018
We perform calculations for the and reactions, showing that the first is isospin-suppressed while the second is isospin-allowed. The reaction proceeds via a triangle mechanism, with , followed by the decay K* → Kπ and a further fusion of into the or a0(980). We show that the mechanism develops a singularity around the π0 f0(980) or π0 a0(980) invariant mass of 1420 MeV, where the π0 f0 and π0 a0 decay modes are magnified and also the ratio of π0 f0 to π0 a0 production. Using experimental information for the decay, we are able to obtain absolute values for the reactions studied which fall into the experimentally accessible range. The reactions proposed and the observables evaluated, when con…
Theoretical study of the NN → NNππ reaction
1998
Abstract We have developed a model for the NN → NNππ reaction and evaluated cross sections for the different charged channels. The low energy part of those channels where the pions can be in an isospin zero state is dominated by N ∗ excitation, driven by an isoscalar source recently found experimentally, followed by the decay N ∗ → N(ππ) S-wave T=0 . At higher energies, and in channels where the pions are not in T = 0, Δ excitation mechanisms become relevant. A rough agreement with the experimental data is obtained in most channels. Repercussions of the present findings for the ABC effect and the pp → ppπ0 reaction close to threshold are also suggested.
Search for forbidden?-decays of the drip line nucleus12Be
1994
Beta-coincidentγ-rays have been measured from implanted pure samples of12Be separated at the LISE3 spectrometer at GANIL. An intensity of 0.040(26) % can be estimated for the branching ratio of the isospin forbidden pure-Fermi transition to the 0+ excited state of12B and of 0.008(6)% of the transition to the 1−1 excited state. Both are taken to represent upper limits. The half-life has been re-measured to be 26.1(2.4) ms.
Linear response theory in asymmetric nuclear matter for Skyrme functionals including spin-orbit and tensor terms
2014
The formalism of linear response theory for a Skyrme functional including spin-orbit and tensor terms is generalized to the case of infinite nuclear matter with arbitrary isospin asymmetry. Response functions are obtained by solving an algebraic system of equations, which is explicitly given. Spin-isospin strength functions are analyzed varying the conditions of density, momentum transfer, asymmetry, and temperature. The presence of instabilities, including the spinodal one, is studied by means of the static susceptibility.
A SIMULTANEOUS ANALYSIS FOR THE ΔI = 1/2 RULE, DIRECT CP VIOLATION, $K^0 -\bar K^0$ AND $B^0 -\bar B^0$ MIXINGS
1992
To have a consistent picture, a simultaneous analysis for the K → ππ isospin amplitudes A0 and A2, the ΔI = 1/2 rule, CP-violating ε′/ε, and [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] mixings within the standard model is made by employing the recent reanalyzed values of the parameters and relating the penguin matrix elements involved in the K → ππ decays to the known matrix elements of the ΔI = 1/2 operator (Q2 − Q1) and ΔI = 3/2 operator (Q2 + 2Q1). The allowed values for all the relevant quantities are calculated in detail. A general bound for top quark mass mt, CP phase δ and ε′/ε is found: for δ in the second quadrant, 84 GeV ≤ mt ≤ 250 GeV , δ ≤ 173° and 1 × 10−4 < ε′/ε ≤ 1 × 10−2…
Competing T = 0 and T = 1 structures in the N = Z nucleus $^{62}_{31}$Ga
1998
Abstract The low-lying levels in the odd-odd N = Z nucleus 62 Ga have been identified for the first time. These data reveal a cascade of stretched-E2 transitions based on a T =0, 1 + bandhead which decays directly to the T =1, 0 + ground state. The observed levels are interpreted in the context of theshell model, using as a basis, the pf 5/2 g 9/2 orbits with a 56 Ni core.
Response of asymmetric nuclear matter to isospin-flip probes
1999
Abstract We investigate the RPA response of asymmetric nuclear matter to external fields which induce charge exchange between nucleons, both at zero and finite temperature. Closed expressions are obtained for the RPA response in each spin channel when the nucleon–nucleon interaction is of the Skyrme type. Exchange terms are fully taken into account. We consider the transferred momentum, asymmetry and temperature as the relevant parameters of our study. Special emphasis is given to the role of neutron excess in relation to the collective states at low momentum.
Invarianzgruppen von Bewegungsgleichungen mit Kommutatorring
1967
An attempt to describe particles by hermitian operators obeying commutator relations leads to a ring of sixteen elements to be represented by matrices of infinite rank. Equations of motion containing elements of the ring are shown to be invariant under charge-conjugation, time-reversal and inhomogeneous Lorentz transformations. Analogs to Pauli- and Gursey-transformations can also be defined and may be used to introduce isospin and helicity.
Schematic and realistic model calculations of the isovector spin monopole excitations in 116In
2012
The excitation of Gamow-Teller (GT) and isovector spin monopole (IVSM) Jπ=1+ modes in 116In by (p,n) and (n,p) charge-exchange reactions on 116Cd and on 116Sn, respectively, is studied within the framework of the quasiparticle random-phase approximation. The calculations have been performed both for schematic and realistic model situations. It appears that the calculated admixture of the IVSM and Gamow-Teller (GT) Jπ=1+ excitations is negligible and that the contribution to the strength above 20 MeV of excitation energy, in 116In, is due to the IVSM (σr2t ±) mode. This result is compared with the recent experimental work that reported a large amount of both (p,n) and (n,p) strength beyond 1…
