ΛNNandΣNNsystems at threshold
2007
We calculate the hypertriton binding energy and the $\ensuremath{\Lambda}d$ and $\ensuremath{\Sigma}d$ scattering lengths using baryon-baryon interactions obtained from a chiral constituent quark model. We study consistently the $\ensuremath{\Lambda}\mathit{NN}$ and $\ensuremath{\Sigma}\mathit{NN}$ systems by analyzing the effect of the $\ensuremath{\Sigma}\ensuremath{\leftrightarrow}\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ conversion. Our interactions correctly predict the hypertriton binding energy. The $(I,J)=(0,3/2)$ $\ensuremath{\Lambda}\mathit{NN}$ channel is also attractive and it might have a bound state. From the condition of nonexistence of a (0,3/2) $\ensuremath{\Lambda}\mathit{NN}$ bound state, an…
NEUTRINO-INDUCED WEAK PION PRODUCTION OFF THE NUCLEON
2008
We study neutrino induced one-pion production off the nucleon in and around the Delta resonance region. Apart from the Delta-pole mechanism we include background terms required by chiral symmetry. These background terms give sizeable contributions in all channels. To better reproduce the ANL $q^2$-differential cross section data, we make a new fit of the $C_5^A(q^2)$ axial nucleon to Delta form factor. The new result $C_5^A(0)=0.867\pm 0.075$ is some 30% smaller than the commonly accepted value. This correction is compatible with most quark model estimates and a recent lattice calculation
Polarized parton distributions and light-front dynamics
1998
We present a consistent calculation of the structure functions within a light-front constituent quark model of the nucleon. Relativistic effects and the relevance of the covariance constraints are analyzed for both polarized and unpolarized parton distributions. Various models, which differ in their gluonic structure at the hadronic scale, are investigated. The results of the full covariant calculation are compared with those of a non-relativistic approximation to show the structure and magnitude of the differences.
Plausible explanation for theΔ5/2+(2000)puzzle
2011
From a Faddeev calculation for the $\ensuremath{\pi}$-$(\ensuremath{\Delta}\ensuremath{\rho}){}_{{N}_{5/{2}^{\ensuremath{-}}}(1675)}$ system we show the plausible existence of three dynamically generated $I({J}^{P})=3/2(5/{2}^{+})$ baryon states below 2.3 GeV, whereas only two resonances, ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{5/{2}^{+}}(1905)(****)$ and ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{5/{2}^{+}}(2000)(**),$ are cataloged in the Particle Data Book Review. Our results give theoretical support to data analyses extracting two distinctive resonances, ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{5/{2}^{+}}(~$1740) and ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{5/{2}^{+}}(~$2200), from which the mass of ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{5/{2}^{+}}(2000)(**)$ is estima…
S-waveKK*interactions in a finite volume and thef1(1285)
2015
Lattice QCD simulations provide a promising way to disentangle different interpretations of hadronic resonances, which might be of particular relevance to understand the nature of the so-called XY Z particles. Recent studies have shown that in addition to the well-established naive quark model picture, the axial-vector meson f1(1285) can also be understood as a dynamically generated state built upon the KK ∗ interaction. In this work, we calculate the energy levels of the KK ∗ system in the f1(1285) channel in finite volume using the chiral unitary approach. We propose to calculate the loop function in the dimensional regularization scheme, which is equivalent to the hybrid approach adopted…
J/ψ dissociation cross sections in a relativistic quark model
2003
We calculate the amplitudes and the cross sections of the charm dissociation processes J/\psi \pi => D \bar D, D* \bar D, D \bar D*, D* \bar D* within a relativistic constituent quark model. We consistently account for the contributions coming from both the box and triangle diagrams that contribute to the dissociation processes. The cross section is dominated by the D* \bar D and D* \bar D* channels. When summing up the four channels we find a maximum total cross section of about 2.3 mb at sqrt(s) \approx 4.1 GeV. We compare our results to the results of other model calculations.
THE PARTON DISTRIBUTIONS IN NUCLEONS: A QUARK MODEL ANALYSIS
1995
We use a laboratory frame description based on quark model wave functions to study the parton distributions in the nucleon. The present approach incorporates two major improvements, namely, it has the correct support and the renormalization group evolution is carried out to next-to-leading order. We obtain initially the parton distributions arising from the Isgur-Karl wave function. The failure of the latter to reproduce, even approximately, the data motivates us to analyze different scenarios, i.e. additional high momentum components and nonvanishing gluon distributions at the initial scale. We conclude that in order to understand data at various scales complex models simultaneously, it i…
Doubly charmed exotic mesons: A gift of nature?
2011
Article history: We study doubly charmed exotic states by solving the scattering problem of two D mesons. Our results point to the existence of a stable isoscalar doubly charmed meson with quantum numbers (I) J P = (0)1 + . We perform a thorough comparison to the results obtained within the hyperspherical harmonic formalism. Such exotic states could be measured at LHC and RHIC. Their experimental observation would,
Anomalous tensor magnetic moments and form factors of the proton in the self-consistent chiral quark-soliton model
2010
We investigate the form factors of the chiral-odd nucleon matrix element of the tensor current. In particular, we aim at the anomalous tensor magnetic form factors of the nucleon within the framework of the SU(3) and SU(2) chiral quark-soliton model. We consider $1/N_c$ rotational corrections and linear effects of SU(3) symmetry breaking with the symmetry-conserving quantization employed. We first obtain the results of the anomalous tensor magnetic moments for the up and down quarks: $\kappa_{T}^{u}=3.56$ and $\kappa_{T}^{d}=1.83$, respectively. The strange anomalous tensor magnetic moment is yielded to be $\kappa_{T}^{s}=0.2\sim -0.2$, that is compatible with zero. We also calculate the co…
Too many Xʼs, Yʼs and Zʼs?
2012
Abstract A large number of new states have been reported during the last few years in charmonium spectroscopy above the charmed meson production threshold. They have been called X ʼs, Y ʼs, and Z ʼs. We reflect on the influence of thresholds on heavy meson spectroscopy comparing different flavor sectors and quantum numbers. The validity of a quark-model picture above open-flavor thresholds would severely restrict the number of channels that may lodge meson–meson molecules.
