Radiative decays of double heavy baryons in a relativistic constituent three-quark model including hyperfine mixing
2010
We study flavor-conserving radiative decays of double heavy baryons using a manifestly Lorentz covariant constituent three-quark model. Decay rates are calculated and compared to each other in the full theory, keeping masses finite, and also in the heavy quark limit. We discuss in some detail hyperfine mixing effects.
Lattice-constrained parametrizations of form factors for semileptonic and rare radiative B decays
1997
We describe the form factors for B to rho lepton neutrino and B to K* gamma decays with just two parameters and the two form factors for B to pi lepton neutrino with a further two or three parameters. The parametrizations are consistent with heavy quark symmetry, kinematic constraints and lattice results, which we use to determine the parameters. In addition, we test versions of the parametrizations consistent (or not) with light-cone sum rule scaling relations at q^2=0.
Meson loops in the $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ radiative decays into $\rho$, $\omega$
2008
We calculate the radiative decay widths of the $a_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ scalar mesons into $\rho\gamma$ and $\omega\gamma$ considering the dynamically generated nature of these scalar resonances within the realm of the Chiral Unitary Approach. The main ingredient in the evaluation of the radiative width of the scalar mesons are the loops coming from the decay into their constituent pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar components and the subsequent radiation of the photon. The dominant diagrams with only pseudoscalar mesons in the loops are found to be convergent while the divergence of those with a vector meson in the loop are written in terms of the two meson loop function easily regularizable. We p…
Radiative decays in charmonium beyond the p/m approximation
2020
We analyze the theoretical description of radiative decays in charmonium. We use an elementary emission decay model to build the most general electromagnetic transition operator. We show that accurate results for the widths can be obtained from a simple quark potential model reasonably fitting the spectroscopy if the complete form of the operator is used instead of its standard p/m approximation and the experimental masses are properly implemented in the calculation.
Quark structure of the $$\chi _{\mathrm{c}}(3P)$$ and X(4274) resonances and their strong and radiative decays
2020
AbstractWe calculate the masses of $$\chi _{\mathrm{c}}(3P)$$χc(3P) states with threshold corrections in a coupled-channel model. The model was recently applied to the description of the properties of $$\chi _{\mathrm{c}}(2P)$$χc(2P) and $$\chi _{\mathrm{b}}(3P)$$χb(3P) multiplets (Ferretti and Santopinto in Phys Lett B 789:550, 2019]. We also compute the open-charm strong decay widths of the $$\chi _{\mathrm{c}}(3P)$$χc(3P) states and their radiative transitions. According to our predictions, the $$\chi _{\mathrm{c}}(3P)$$χc(3P) states should be dominated by the charmonium core, but they may also show small meson-meson components. The X(4274) is interpreted as a $$c {{\bar{c}}}$$cc¯$$\chi …
Polar angle dependence of the longitudinal polarization of quarks produced in e + e - -annihilation
1997
We calculate one-loop radiative QCD corrections to the three polarized and unpolarized structure functions that determine the beam-quark polar angle dependence of the longitudinal polarization of light and heavy quarks produced in e+e−-annihilations. We present analytical and numerical results for the longitudinal polarization and its polar angle dependence. We discuss in some detail the zero-mass limit of our results and the role of the anomalous spin-flip contributions to the polarization observables in the zero-mass limit. Our discussion includes transverse and longitudinal beam polarization effects.
Spontaneous lifetimes and relaxation cross-sections of the D1Π state of NaRb
2003
Abstract The time-resolved intensity of dispersed laser induced fluorescence following the Ar + -laser D 1 Π←X 1 Σ + excitation was measured for both 23 Na 85 Rb and 23 Na 87 Rb isotopomers in a thermal cell. Spontaneous radiative lifetime values determined for v ′ ( J ′ ) rovibronic levels of the D 1 Π state in the v ′ range from 0 to 17 and J ′ from 8 to 131 varied from 22.5 to 17.3 ns. Averaged collisional quenching cross-section values of (3–6)×10 −14 cm 2 were obtained for NaRb (D 1 Π, v ′ , J ′ ) + Rb collisions from the Stern–Volmer plots.
Molecular quenching and relaxation in a plasmonic tunable system
2008
Molecular fluorescence decay is significantly modified when the emitting molecule is located near a plasmonic structure. When the lateral sizes of such structures are reduced to nanometer-scale cross sections, they can be used to accurately control and amplify the emission rate. In this Rapid Communication, we extend Green's dyadic method to quantitatively investigate both radiative and nonradiative decay channels experienced by a single fluorescent molecule confined in an adjustable dielectric-metal nanogap. The technique produces data in excellent agreement with current experimental work.
Glossary of terms used in photocatalysis and radiation catalysis (IUPAC Recommendations 2011)
2011
This glossary of terms covers phenomena considered under the very wide terms photocatalysis and radiation catalysis. A clear distinction is made between phenomena related to either photochemistry and photocatalysis or radiation chemistry and radiation catalysis. The term “radiation” is used here as embracing electromagnetic radiation of all wavelengths, but in general excluding fast-moving particles. Consistent definitions are given of terms in the areas mentioned above, as well as definitions of the most important parameters used for the quantitative description of the phenomena. Terms related to the up-scaling of photocatalytic processes for industrial applications have been included. Thi…
Atmospheric correction of optical imagery from MODIS and Reanalysis atmospheric products
2010
article i nfo In this paper we analyze the differences obtained in the atmospheric correction of optical imagery covering bands located in the Visible and Near Infra-Red (VNIR), Short-Wave Infra-Red (SWIR) and Themal-Infrared (TIR) spectral regions when atmospheric profiles extracted from different sources are used. In particular, three sensors were used, Compact High Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (CHRIS), Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection radiometer (ASTER) and Landsat5 Thematic Mapper (TM), whereas four atmospheric profiles sources were considered: i) local soundings launched near the sensor overpass time, ii) Moderate Resolution Radiometer (MODIS) atmospheric profiles…
