Compton Scattering by the Proton using a Large-Acceptance Arrangement
2001
Compton scattering by the proton has been measured over a wide range covering photon energies 250 MeV lt or approximately=E/sub gamma / lt or approximately=800 MeV and photon scattering angles 30 degrees lt or approximately= theta /sub gamma //sup lab/ lt or approximately=150 degrees , using the tagged-photon facility at MAMI (Mainz) and the large-acceptance arrangement LARA. The previously existing data base on proton Compton scattering is greatly enlarged by more than 700 new data points. The new data are interpreted in terms of dispersion theory based on the SAID-SM99K parametrization of photo-meson amplitudes. It is found that two-pion exchange in the t-channel is needed for a descripti…
Nuclear response functions in homogeneous matter with finite range effective interactions
2005
The question of nuclear response functions in a homogeneous medium is examined. A general method for calculating response functions in the random phase approximation (RPA) with exchange is presented. The method is applicable for finite-range nuclear interactions. Examples are shown in the case of symmetric nuclear matter described by a Gogny interaction. It is found that the convergence of the results with respect to the multipole truncation is quite fast. Various approximation schemes such as the Landau approximation, or the Landau approximation for the exchange terms only, are discussed in comparison with the exact results.

The collective structure of106,108Ru
1984
Levels in106,108Ru have been studied by measuringγγ coincidences andγγ directional correlations of theγ-rays following theβ−-decay of 36 s106Tc and 5 s108Tc. Tc activities were separated chemically from the fission products of thermal neutron induced fission of239Pu by the continuously running system “SISAK 2” and theγ-radiation was measured on-line. An extended level scheme for108Ru, spin assignments,E2/M1 multipole mixing ratios andB(E2) ratios for106Ru and108Ru have been obtained. The collective structure of the two nuclei is discussed in the framework of different nuclear models.
Double Polarization Observables in η Electroproduction
2009
Abstract A new measurement of beam-recoil double-polarization observables in η electroproduction at the A1 collaboration at MAMI is presented. The energy region of the S 11 ( 1525 ) resonance was covered at a four-momentum transfer of Q 2 = 0.1 GeV 2 / c 2 . It turned out, that the usual interpretation of the reaction mechanism via S 11 and D 13 resonance fails to explain the relative phase between the corresponding multipole amplitudes tested by this experiment, while the new data are still in good agreement with previous measurements.
Theory of double beta decay
2005
Basic features of the two-neutrino double beta ( 2 ν β β ) decay and neutrinoless double beta ( 0 ν β β ) decay are discussed. A short review of the most important nuclear models, used to describe the ββ decay, is given. A deeper survey of the nuclear matrix elements, related to the above-mentioned decay modes, is performed using the proton-neutron quasiparticle random-phase approximation (pnQRPA). In particular, the extraction of a proper value of the proton-neutron particle-particle interaction parameter in this theory is addressed. The relevance of different multipoles in the multipole decomposition of the 0 ν β β matrix element is also discussed in the pnQRPA framework.
S11 RESONANCES IN A COUPLED-CHANNEL DYNAMICAL MODEL
2005
A self-consistent analysis of pion scattering and pion photoproduction within a coupled channels dynamical model is presented. The results indicate the existence of a third and a fourth S11 resonance with the masses 1846±47 and 2113±70 MeV . In the case of pion photoproduction, we found that background contributions to the imaginary part of the S-wave multipole become large and negative in the region of the S11(1535) resonance. Due to this fact, much larger resonance contributions are required in order to explain the results of the recent multipole analysis. For the first S11(1535) resonance we obtain a value of 72±2×10-3 GeV -1/2 for the electromagnetic helicity amplitude A1/2.
Multipole strength distributions and form factors forE1,E2/E0, andE3 fromU238(e,e’f) coincidence experiments
1987
A model-independent multipole analysis of $^{238}\mathrm{U}$(e,e'f) coincidence data, taken at four momentum transfers (0.2\ensuremath{\le}${q}_{\mathrm{eff}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\le}}0.7}$ ${\mathrm{fm}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$; \ensuremath{\omega}=4--22 MeV) yields both E1, E2/E0, and E3 form factors and strength distributions. The E2/E0 strength distribution in the fission channel shows two distinct bumps centered at \ensuremath{\omega}\ensuremath{\simeq}10 and 14 MeV, exhausting up to 12 MeV (19\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}2)% of the isoscalar E2 sum rule. The extracted form factors can be described within a hydrodynamical model by use of parameters ${c}_{\mathrm{tr}/{c}_{0}=1.2}$ and …
Exclusive deuteron electrodisintegration with polarized electrons and a polarized target
1992
Exclusive electrodisintegration of the deuteron using a polarized beam and an oriented target is systematically investigated in a nonrelativistic framework. The structure functions are expanded in terms of Legendre functions whose coefficients are quadratic forms in the electric and magnetic multipole moments. Their experimental separation by specific experimental settings is outlined. The structure functions are studied with respect to their sensitivity to the potential model, to subnuclear degrees of freedom, and to electromagnetic form factors in different kinematical regions.
The Z boson spin observables as messengers of new physics
2017
We demonstrate that the 8 multipole parameters describing the spin state of the $Z$ boson are able to disentangle known $Z$ production mechanisms and signals from new physics at the LHC. They can be extracted from appropriate asymmetries in the angular distribution of lepton pairs from the $Z$ boson decay. The power of this analysis is illustrated by (i) the production of $Z$ boson plus jets; (ii) $Z$ boson plus missing transverse energy; (iii) $W$ and $Z$ bosons originating from the two-body decay of a heavy resonance.
