Isospin breaking andf0(980)-a0(980)mixing in theη(1405)→π0f0(980)reaction

2012

We make a theoretical study of the eta(1405) -> pi(0)f(0)(980) and eta(1405) -> pi(0)a(0)(980) reactions with an aim to determine the isospin violation and the mixing of the f(0)(980) and a(0)(980) resonances. We make use of the chiral unitary approach where these two resonances appear as composite states of two mesons, dynamically generated by the meson-meson interaction provided by chiral Lagrangians. We obtain a very narrow shape for the f(0)(980) production in agreement with a BES experiment. As to the amount of isospin violation, or f(0)(980) and a(0)(980) mixing, assuming constant vertices for the primary eta(1405) -> pi K-0 (K) over bar and eta(1405) -> pi(0)pi(0)eta production, we f…

Pion exchange current effects inv ? +d??? +p+p

1986

The differential cross sectiondσ/dq2 for the processvμ+d→μ−+p+p is studied using realistic deuteron wave functions and closure over the dinucleon states. The effect of meson exchange currents is estimated using one-pion exchange diagrams in the static limit. Implications of our present results on the determination ofFA(q2) from neutrinodeuteron reaction experiments are discussed.

Muon capture in deuterium and the meson exchange current effect

1990

Abstract One-meson exchange current effect in reaction μ − + d → 2 n + v μ is calculated by using the weak axial current operator which satisfies the nuclear continuity equation up to the order 1 M 2 ( M is the nucleon mass). In the vector part of the weak nuclear interaction the vector-isovector pion exchange currents are also included. Their contribution is found to be non-negligible. The nuclear wave functions are generated from the Paris, Reid soft-core and Bonn potential models. Our result is compatible with the previous one, obtained with only the static axial exchange currents included.

The E0 transition in pion photoproduction and radiative pion capture on 13C

1990

Abstract The E0 contribution of the reactions 13 C( γ , π − ) 13 N g.s. as well as 13 C( π + , γ ) 13 N g.s. has been calculated in an extended shell-model space using a nonlocal DWIA framework. A realistic shell-model wave function that includes configurations from the (2s, 1d) as well as the (2p, 1f) shells has been employed for the A = 13 system and leads to a significant suppression of the E0 transition. The large suppression can be understood in terms of the E0 radial integrals over the relevant single-particle densities. A variety of angular distributions demonstrates the good overall agreement with experimental data.

Two-body Mechanisms in Pion Scattering and Pion Photoproduction on the Trinucleon

1995

A breakdown of the Impulse Approximation is studied in pion photoproduction and pion charge exchange on 3He at high momentum transfers. The usual DWIA formalism with Faddeev wave functions which works well for small momentum transfers deviates from experimental measurements by up to two orders of magnitude for Q 2 > 6 fm−2. It is found that the explicit inclusion of two-body mechanisms, where the photon or pion is absorbed on one nucleon and the pion is emitted from another nucleon removes most of the disagreement with the data.

Asymmetries in elastic scattering of 100 MeVπ+from a polarizedHe3target

1991

We report the observation of a large asymmetry in the elastic scattering of 100 MeV {pi}{sup +} from a polarized {sup 3}He target. Measurements have been made at laboratory angles of 60{degree}, 80{degree}, and 100{degree}, with the largest value {ital A}{sub {ital y}}=0.89{plus minus}0.12 occurring at 80{degree}, near a cross-section minimum. This asymmetry is the largest observed to date in pion scattering from a spin-1/2 nucleus. The {ital A}{sub {ital y}} data are qualitatively reproduced by a schematic model; however, agreement with the data is significantly improved when realistic three-body Faddeev wave functions and a full nonlocal distorted-wave impulse approximation reaction model…

PION DOUBLE CHARGE EXCHANGE REACTIONS LEADING TO DOUBLE PIONIC ATOMS

1992

We study theoretically pion double charge exchange reactions leading to double pionic atoms. The reaction cross-sections with two pions in the deeper bound pionic orbits in 208Pb are calculated with realistic pionic atom wave functions and distortion effects. The cross-sections are found to be d2σ/dEdΩ~10−3−10−4 µ b/srMeV , which are only a small fraction of the double charge exchange background.

Analogue of oscillation theorem for nonadiabatic diatomic states: application to the A 1Σ+ and b 3Π states of KCs

2010

Relative intensity measurements in the high resolution A (1)Sigma(+) approximately b (3)Pi--X (1)Sigma(+) laser induced fluorescence spectra of the KCs molecule highlighted a breakdown of the conventional one-dimensional oscillation theorem (L. D. Landau and E. M. Lifshitz, Quantum Mechanics, Pergamon, New York, 1965). For strongly spin-orbit coupled A (1)Sigma(+) and b (3)Pi states the number of nodes n(A) and n(b) of the non-adiabatic vibrational eigenfunctions phi and phi corresponding to the v-th eigenstate differs essentially from their adiabatic counterparts. It is found, however, that in the general case of two-component states with wavefunctions phi and phi coupled by the sign-const…

Muon-capture strength functions in intermediate nuclei of 0νββ decays

2019

Capture rates of ordinary muon capture (OMC) to the intermediate nuclei of neutrinoless double beta ($0\ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\beta}\ensuremath{\beta}$) decays of current experimental interest are computed. The corresponding OMC (capture-rate) strength functions have been analyzed in terms of multipole decompositions. The computed low-energy OMC-rate distribution to $^{76}\mathrm{As}$ is compared with the available data of Zinatulina et al. [Phys. Rev. C 99, 024327 (2019)]. The present OMC computations are performed using the Morita-Fujii formalism by extending the original formalism beyond the leading order. The participant nuclear wave functions are obtained in extended no-core singl…

Isospin breaking effects in the dynamical generation of the X(3872)

2010

We have studied isospin breaking effects in the X(3872) resonance and found a natural explanation for the branching fraction of the X decaying to $J/\psi$ with two and three pions being close to unit. Within our framework the X(3872) is a dynamically generated resonance in coupled channels. We also study the relationship between the couplings of the resonance to the coupled channels with its wave function, which further helps us to understand the isospin structure of the resonance.
