Radiative decay intoγPof the low lying axial-vector mesons
2008
We evaluate the radiative decay into a pseudoscalar meson and a photon of the whole set of the axial-vector mesons dynamically generated from the vector-pseudoscalar meson interaction. We take into account tree level and loop diagrams coming from the axial-vector decay into a vector and a pseudoscalar meson. We find a large span for the values of the radiative widths of the different axial-vector mesons. In particular, we evaluate the radiative decay into K{gamma} of the two K{sub 1}(1270) states, recently claimed theoretically, and discuss the experimental values quoted so far on the assumption of only one state.
Single-spin asymmetries of $d(\gamma,\pi)NN$ in the first resonance region
2003
Incoherent photoproduction of pions on the deuteron in the first resonance region is investigated with special emphasis on single-spin asymmetries. For the elementary pion production operator an effective Lagrangian model which includes the standard pseudovector Born terms and a resonance contribution from the $\Delta$(1232)-excitation is used. Single-spin asymmetries, both for charged and neutral pion photoproduction on the deuteron, are analyzed and calculated for the first time in the first resonance region. The linear photon asymmetry $\Sigma$, vector target asymmetry $T_{11}$ and tensor target asymmetries $T_{20}$, $T_{21}$, and $T_{22}$ for the reaction $d(\gamma,\pi)NN$ are predicted…
Photoproduction of theωmeson on the proton near threshold
2015
An experimental study of omega photoproduction on the proton was conducted by using the Crystal Ball and TAPS multiphoton spectrometers together with the photon tagging facility at the Mainz Microtron MAMI. The gamma p -> omega p differential cross sections are measured from threshold to the incident-photon energy E-gamma = 1.40 GeV (W = 1.87 GeV for the center-of-mass energy) with 15-MeV binning in E-gamma and full production-angle coverage. The quality of the present data near threshold gives access to a variety of interesting physics aspects. As an example, an estimation of the omega N scattering length alpha(omega p) is provided.
Heavy neutrino mixing and single production at linear collider
1997
We study the single production of heavy neutrinos via the processes $e^-e^+ \to \nu N$ and $e^-\gamma \to W^- N$ at future linear colliders. As a base of our considerations we take a wide class of models, both with vanishing and non-vanishing left-handed Majorana neutrino mass matrix $m_L$. We perform a model independent analyses of the existing experimental data and find connections between the characteristic of heavy neutrinos (masses, mixings, CP eigenvalues) and the $m_L$ parameters. We show that with the present experimental constraints heavy neutrino masses almost up to the collision energy can be tested in the future experiments.
Implications of a Rotating Mass Matrix
2001
The fermion mass matrix, in addition to having eigenvalues (masses) which run, also changes its orientation (rotates) with changing energy scales. This means that its eigenstates at one scale will no longer be eigenstates at another scale, leading to effects where fermions of different flavours can ``transmute'' into one another. In this paper, the implications of a rotating mass matrix are analysed and possible transmuation effects are investigated both in the Standard Model (SM) and in the so-called Dualized Standard Model (DSM) that we advocate, arriving at the conclusion that some transmutational decays such as $\psi \longrightarrow \mu \tau$, $\Upsilon \longrightarrow \mu \tau$ or $\pi…
On the universal bundle for gravity
1991
Abstract We construct a supergravity type theory based on a superspace whose odd directions consist of a vector, together with a scalar representing a topological BRST shift symmetry. As such, the resulting theory is a theory of topological gravity. The gravitino is interpreted as a ghost field for this shift symmetry and plays the usual role of gauge field for local supersymmetry. Our construction is within the bundle of frames approach to superspace where covariant torsion constraints are analyzed, and we find that the resulting theory contains additional fields which are not present in existing theories of topological gravity. In particular, a minimal solution exists which contains a BRS…
The baryonic spectrum in a constituent quark model including a three-body force
1992
We analyze, within a non-relativistic quark model, the low energy part of the baryonic spectrum in the octet and decuplet flavour representations. The relevance of a strong Coulomb potential is emphasized in order to explain its general features. The addition of a three-body force allows to solve the ‘Roper puzzle’, giving a consistent explanation to its relative position in the spectrum.
Spin-dipole nuclear matrix elements for double beta decays and astro-neutrinos
2014
Spin-dipole (SD) nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) M±(SD2) for unique first forbidden β±2−→0+ ground-state-to-ground-state transitions are studied by using effective microscopic two-nucleon interactions in realistic single-particle model spaces. The observed values of the NMEs Mexp±(SD2) are compared with the values of the single-quasiparticle NMEs Mqp±(SD2) without nucleon spin–isospin (στ) correlation and the QRPA NMEs MQRPA±(SD2) with the στ correlation. The observed SD matrix elements are found to be reduced by the factor k≈0.2 with respect to Mqp±(SD2) and by the factor kNM≈0.5 with respect to MQRPA±(SD2). We then infer that the SD NME is reduced considerably partly by the nucleon στ corr…
Measurements ofe+e−→K+K−η,K+K−π0, andKs0K±π∓cross sections using initial state radiation events
2008
This paper reports measurements of processes: e+e-→γKS0K±π∓, e+e-→γK+K-π0, e+e-→γϕη, and e+e-→γϕπ0. The initial-state radiated photon allows to cover the hadronic final state in the energy range from thresholds up to ≈4.6 GeV. The overall size of the data sample analyzed is 232 fb-1, collected by the BABAR detector running at the PEP-II e+e- storage ring. From the Dalitz plot analysis of the KS0K±π∓ final state, moduli, and relative phase of the isoscalar and the isovector components of the e+e-→KK*(892) cross section are determined. Parameters of ϕ and ρ recurrences are also measured, using a global fitting procedure which exploits the interconnection among amplitudes, moduli, and phases…
Angular distribution of coherent bremsstrahlung
2012
The angular distribution of the linearly polarised photon beam produced by coherent bremsstrahlung from an aligned diamond radiator has been measured at the MAMI A2 tagged photon facility. The measurements were made with a prototype position sensitive photon detector which utilises the pair production process and a double sided silicon strip detector. This polarised photon beam is used for nuclear and hadronic experiments and in their analysis the polarisation is obtained from a calculation, which matches the experimental intensity spectrum. As the polarisation is related to the photon beam angular distribution, the present measurements can be used to test this calculation. The overall agre…
