Electric polarizability of nuclei from a longitudinal sum rule
1998
The nuclear electric polarizability is theoretically analyzed using a sum rule derived from the longitudinal part of the forward Compton amplitude. Beyond the leading dipole contribution, this approach leads to the presence of potential-dependent terms that do not show up in previous analyses. The significance of these new contributions is illustrated by performing an explicit calculation for a proton-neutron system interacting via a separable potential.
enhancement and the Glashow-Schnitzer-Weinberg sum rule
2000
Abstract In 1967 Glashow, Schnitzer and Weinberg derived a sum rule in the soft-pion and soft kaon limit relating the ΔI= 1 2 non-leptonic K→2π amplitude to integrals over strange and non-strange spectral functions. Using the recent ALEPH data from τ-decay, we show that the sum rule, slightly modified to reduce contributions near the cut, yields the correct magnitude decay amplitude corresponding to the ΔI= 1 2 rule.
Unsubtracted dispersion-relation for longitudinal compton amplitude
1975
Abstract It is shown that there is a simple connection between the slope, at q2 = 0, of the longitudinal Compton amplitude and the electric polarizability of the nucleon. The longitudinal subtraction function is thus known to order q2. The assumption of an unsubtracted dispersion relation for the longitudinal amplitude leads to a sum rule for the electric polarizability. This is a model independent test of the high-energy behaviour of the forward virtual Compton amplitude.
The Drell-Hearn-Gerasimov Sum Rule
1994
The Drell-Hearn-Gerasimov (DHG) sum rule relates the helicity structure of the photoabsorption cross section to the anomalous magnetic moment of the nucleon. It is based on Lorentz and gauge invariance, crossing symmetry, causality and unitarity. A generalized DHG sum rule my be derived for virtual photons. At low momentum transfer this generalized sum rule is saturated by the resonance region, at high momentum transfer it may be expressed by the parton spin distributions measured in deep inelastic scattering. The longitudinal-transverse interference determines the Cottingham sum rule, which is related to the electric and magnetic form factors over the whole range of momentum transfer.
Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rule and related integrals
2001
The spin structure of the nucleon resonance region is analyzed on the basis of our phenomenological model MAID. Predictions are given for the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rule as well as generalized integrals over spin structure functions. The dependence of these integrals on momentum transfer is studied and rigorous relationships between various definitions of generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn integrals and spin polarizabilities are derived. These results are compared to the predictions of chiral perturbation theory and phenomenological models.
Partial-wave analysis of proton Compton scattering data below the pion-production threshold
2018
Low-energy Compton scattering off the proton is used for determination of the proton polarizabilities. However, the present empirical determinations rely heavily on the theoretical description(s) of the experimental cross sections in terms of polarizabilities. The most recent determinations are based on either the fixed-$t$ dispersion relations (DR) or chiral perturbation theory in the single-baryon sector ($\chi$PT). The two approaches obtain rather different results for proton polarizabilities, most notably for $\beta_{M1}$ (magnetic dipole polarizability). We attempt to resolve this discrepancy by performing a partial-wave analysis of the world data on proton Compton scattering below thr…
A model study on the nuclear photoeffect
1977
In a simple model of a spinless particle moving in a finite square well potential influences of final state Born approximation and of various approximations in the electromagnetic operators on photoabsorption differential, total and integrated cross sections are investigated. While the Born approximation is very poor in all respects, the long wave length approximation turns out to be the best and reproduces the total cross section quite well. However, appreciable deviations occur in the differential cross section at intermediate energies. The integrated cross section slightly exceeds the classical sum rule resulting from nonanalyticity of the forward compton scattering amplitude, as is disc…
Dipole excitations of neutron-proton asymmetric nuclei
2004
Dipole excitations of unstable short-lived nuclei has been investigated experimentally by utilizing the electromagnetic-excitation process with high-energy secondary beams. From an exclusive measurement of the neutron-decay channels, differential cross sections with respect to excitation energy, which are directly related to the photo-absorption cross section and accordingly to the dipole-strength function, have been derived. Light neutron-rich nuclei in the mass range fromA = 11 toA = 23 with mass-over-charge ratios up toA/Z≈ 2.8 have been investigated systematically. Much in contrast to stable nuclei, low-lying dipole excitations well below the giant dipole resonance region have been obse…
Measurement of the dipole response of neutron-rich nuclei in the A∼20 region
2002
Abstract Coulomb break up of the neutron-rich 15,17 C and 17–22 O isotopes has been studied experimentally using secondary beams at energies of 500–600 MeV/u. A comparison between differential cross sections, d σ/ d E ∗ , with that obtained from a binary model shows that the main ground-state configuration of 15 C is 14 C(0 + )⊗ ν S 1/2 as expected. For 17 C, our preliminary data analysis reveals that the predominant (∼64%) configuration of the ground state is 16 C(2 + )⊗ ν s , d . For 17–22 O, the low-lying E1 strength amounts up to about 12% of the energy weighted sum rule strength depending on neutron number. The energy weighted E1 strength (integrated up to 15 MeV excitation energy) inc…
Ground state correlations and the nuclear charge distribution
1979
Combining a sum rule approach and the generator coordinate model we evaluate the influence of ground state correlations on the moments of the radial charge distribution. The isotopic and isotonic differences of the moments come out to be particularly sensitive to fluctuations of the ground state correlations due to changes in the low energy spectrum. A comparison with the experimental results for the isotopes of Ca, Fe, Ni and Zn shows a fair agreement and confirms the importance of the ground state correlations for isotopic and isotonic differences of radial moments.
