Two-photon and one-photon–one-vector meson decay widths of thef0(1370),f2(1270),f0(1710),f2′(1525), andK2*(1430)
2010
We calculate the radiative decay widths, two-photon ($\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}$) and one-photon--one-vector meson ($V\ensuremath{\gamma}$), of the dynamically generated resonances from vector-meson--vector-meson interaction in a unitary approach based on the hidden-gauge Lagrangians. In the present paper we consider the following dynamically generated resonances: ${f}_{0}(1370)$, ${f}_{0}(1710)$, ${f}_{2}(1270)$, ${f}_{2}^{\ensuremath{'}}(1525)$, ${K}_{2}^{*}(1430)$, two $\mathrm{\text{strangeness}}=0$ and $\mathrm{\text{isospin}}=1$ states, and two $\mathrm{\text{strangeness}}=1$ and $\mathrm{\text{isospin}}=1/2$ states. For the ${f}_{0}(1370)$ and ${f}_{2}(1270)$ we reproduc…
Core-collapse supernova simulations in one and two dimensions: comparison of codes and approximations
2018
We present spherically symmetric (1D) and axisymmetric (2D) supernova simulations for a convection-dominated 9 Msun and a 20 Msun progenitor that develops violent activity by the standing-accretion-shock instability (SASI). We compare in detail the Aenus-Alcar code, which uses fully multidimensional two-moment neutrino transport with an M1 closure, with a ray-by-ray-plus (RbR+) version of this code and with the Prometheus-Vertex code that employs RbR+ two-moment transport with a Boltzmann closure. Besides testing consequences of ignored non-radial neutrino-flux components in the RbR+ approximation, we also discuss the influence of various transport ingredients applied or not applied in rece…
Λb→J/ψK0Λreaction and a hidden-charm pentaquark state with strangeness
2016
We study the Lambda(b) -> J/psi K-0 Lambda reaction considering both the K-0 Lambda interaction with its coupled channels and the J/psi Lambda interaction. The latter is described by taking into account the fact that there are predictions for a hidden-charm state with strangeness that couples to J/psi Lambda By using the coupling of the resonance to J/psi Lambda from these predictions, we show that a neat peak can be observed in the J/psi Lambda invariant mass distribution, rather stable under changes of unknown magnitudes. In some cases, one finds a dip structure associated to that state, but a signal of the state shows up in the J/psi Lambda spectrum.
Antineutrino induced Λ(1405) production off the proton
2015
We have studied the strangeness-changing antineutrino-induced reactions ${\overline{\ensuremath{\nu}}}_{l}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{l}^{+}\ensuremath{\phi}B$, with $\ensuremath{\phi}B={K}^{\ensuremath{-}}p$, ${\overline{K}}^{0}n$, ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}\ensuremath{\Lambda}$, ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{0}$, $\ensuremath{\eta}\ensuremath{\Lambda}$, $\ensuremath{\eta}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{0}$, ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{+}$, ${K}^{+}{\ensuremath{\Xi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, and ${K}^{0}{\ensuremath{\Xi}}^{0}$, using a chiral unitary approach. These ten coupled channels are allowed t…
DYNAMICALLY GENERATED RESONANCES IN THE CHIRAL UNITARY APPROACH TO MESON BARYON INTERACTION
2004
In this talk we report on the use of a chiral unitary approach for the interaction of the octets of meson and baryon and the octet of mesons with the decuplet of baryons. Two octets of $J^{\pi}=1/2^-$ baryon states and a singlet are generated dynamically in the first case, resulting in the case of strangeness $S=-1$ in two poles of the scattering matrix close to the nominal $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance. In the second case many resonances are also generated, among them an exotic baryon with S=1 corresponding to a $\Delta K$ resonance. We make suggestions of experiments which could show evidence for the existence of these states.
S=−1meson-baryon unitarized coupled channel chiral perturbation theory and theS01resonances Λ(1405) and -Λ(1670)
2003
The $s-$wave meson-baryon scattering is analyzed for the strangeness $S=-1$ and isospin I=0 sector in a Bethe-Salpeter coupled channel formalism incorporating Chiral Symmetry. Four channels have been considered: $\pi \Sigma$, $\bar K N$, $\eta \Lambda$ and $K \Xi$. The required input to solve the Bethe-Salpeter equation is taken from lowest order Chiral Perturbation Theory in a relativistic formalism. There appear undetermined low energy constants, as a consequence of the renormalization of the amplitudes, which are obtained from fits to the $\pi\Sigma\to\pi\Sigma$ mass-spectrum, to the elastic $\bar K N \to \bar K N$ and $ \bar K N\to \pi \Sigma$ $t$--matrices and to the $ K^- p \to \eta \…
Hypernuclear physics at $\overline{\mbox{P}}$ ANDA
2012
Hypernuclear research will be one of the main topics addressed by the \(\overline{\mbox{P}}\) anda experiment at the planned Facility for Anti-proton and Ion Research FAIR at Darmstadt, Germany. A copious production of Ξ-hyperons at a dedicated internal target in the stored anti-proton beam is expected, which will enable the high-precision γ-spectroscopy of double strange systems for the first time. In addition to the general purpose \(\overline{\mbox{P}}\) anda setup, the hypernuclear experiments require an active secondary target of silicon layers and absorber material as well as high purity germanium (HPGe) crystals as γ-detectors. The design of the setup and the development of these det…
Antistrange meson-baryon interaction in hot and dense nuclear matter
2014
We present a study of in-medium cross sections and (off-shell) transition rates for the most relevant binary reactions for strange pseudoscalar meson production close to threshold in heavy-ion collisions at FAIR energies. Our results rely on a chiral unitary approach in coupled channels which incorporates the $s$- and $p$-waves of the kaon-nucleon interaction. The formalism, which is modified in the hot and dense medium to account for Pauli blocking effects, mean-field binding on baryons, and pion and kaon self-energies, has been improved to implement full unitarization and self-consistency for both the $s$- and $p$-wave interactions at finite temperature and density. This gives access to i…
New interpretation for theDs2*(2573)and the prediction of novel exotic charmed mesons
2010
In this manuscript we study the vector-vector interaction within the hidden-gauge formalism in a coupled channel unitary approach. In the sector $C=1$, $S=1$, $J=2$ we get a pole in the $T$ matrix around 2572 MeV that we identify with the ${D}_{s2}^{*}(2573)$, coupling strongly to the ${D}^{*}{K}^{*}({D}_{s}^{*}\ensuremath{\phi}(\ensuremath{\omega}))$ channels. In addition we obtain resonances in other exotic sectors which have not been studied before such as $C=1$, $S=\ensuremath{-}1$, $C=2$, $S=0$ and $C=2$, $S=1$. These ``flavor-exotic'' states are interpreted as ${D}^{*}{\overline{K}}^{*}$, ${D}^{*}{D}^{*}$, and ${D}_{s}^{*}{D}^{*}$ molecular states but have not been observed yet. In to…
