Book excerpt: Few Particle Problems in the Nuclear Interaction emerged from the International Conference on Few Particle Problems in the Nuclear Interaction held in Los Angeles, from August 28-September 1, 1972. The aim of the conference was to discuss recent developments in low and medium energy few-particle problems. This included the fields of the nuclear three-body problem; nuclear forces (in particular, three-body forces); symmetries; and the interaction of mesons, leptons, and photons with few-nucleon systems. Special sessions were also devoted to the application of the results and techniques of the few-particle research to the problems of other fields, in particular nuclear structure and astrophysics. The conference was organized into nine plenary sessions and 13 parallel sessions. This volume contains 184 papers presented during the nine sessions on the following topics: the nucleon-nucleon interaction; three-body forces; hypernuclear systems; symmetries; three-body problems; multiparticle reactions; proposed studies of few-nucleon systems with meson factories; few-nucleon systems and leptons, mesons, and photons; and applications.

Download or read book Weak Interactions in Nuclei written by Barry R. Holstein and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-14 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently a symbiotic relationship between particle and nuclear physics has developed, with techniques and ideas from one field fertilizing developments in the other. This work outlines concepts from modern particle physics important to the current understanding of nuclear physics and reviews experiments involving nuclei which have influenced the present particle physics view of the weak interaction. In his discussion, the author summarizes both past and present activity in the field and identifies areas for future work. Familiarity with quantum mechanics is assumed in the presentation of ideas in this book intended for readers at the graduate level and beyond. A major goal of Weak Interactions in Nuclei is to encourage further activity at the intersection of particle and nuclear physics, two path-breaking areas of study in modern physics.

Book excerpt: A primary reason for investigating the structure and reactions of baryon systems is to achieve an understanding the fundamental baryon-baryon force in the realm of non-perturbative QCD. Few-baryon systems play an essential role, because one can calculate complete solutions to test a particular baryon-baryon interaction ansatz. Hypernuclei, exotic nuclei containing one or more hyperons (Y = [Lambda], [Sigma], or [Xi]) are crucial to this investigation, because they permit one to probe models based upon our experience in the nonstrange sector; they lie outside of the conventional world where our models were developed. That is, we can test whether our sophisticated models of the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction extrapolate successfully beyond the zero strangeness region in which the parameters were determined, or whether the models merely interpolate. The presence of the strangeness degree of freedom (flavor) adds a new dimension to our evolving picture of nuclear physics. We shall see that the physics of hypernuclei is both novel and puzzling, stretching our intuition and analysis capability beyond that developed during the more than half century that we have explored conventional nuclear physics. The hypernuclear sector of hadronic physics is not just a simple extension of zero-strangeness phenomena.

Book excerpt: Recent experimental and theoretical progress in hypernuclear physics is reviewed. Different models for hyperon-nucleus central and spin-orbit potentials are compared: several models yield a very small spin-orbit strength for the ..lambda.., as experimentally observed, but differ considerably in their predictions for the ..sigma ... The new data on the 13C hypernuclear spectrum, as obtained in the (K−, ..pi..−) strangeness exchange reaction at 800 MeV/c, are discussed. It is shown how one extracts constraints on the ..lambda..-nucleus and effective ..lambda..-nucleon ineractions from the data. The new BNL data on the (K−, ..pi..) reaction at 720 MeV/c, leading to ..sigma..-hypernuclear states, are examined. The case of 6Li(K−, ..pi..)6H is discussed in some detail, and some speculations concerning the (K−, ..pi..+) reaction on other targets are presented. The physical mechanisms which may lead to unusually narrow ..sigma.. excitations in some systems are examined. Finally, the physics motivations for several future hypernuclear experiments which are already under development, such as (K−, ..pi..−..gamma..) and ..pi../sup + -/, K+) studies, or under preliminary consideration, for instance, the (K−, K/sup +/) reaction producing S=-2 hypernuclei are reviewed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hypernuclei with strangeness -1 have been intensively studied both theoretically and experimentally using hadronic probes and reactions, (K, [pi]) and ([pi], K), for many years since the first discovery of such formation in the earlier nuclear emulsion and bubble chamber experiments. Many recent review papers exist on the status of hypernuclear physics, such as the recent one written by B.F. Gibson and Ed V. Hungerford in which one can find detailed discussion on all aspects of hypernuclear physics and more complete reference list. The unique feature of this field can be summarized, in general, into three categories: (1) Strong Interaction Involving Strangeness, (2) Weak Interaction with [Delta]S = -1, and (3) Medium Modifications. For strong interaction, it is commonly believed that a hyperon can be treated as an ''impurity'' to probe deep interior of the nuclear medium to explore fundamental issues such as the changes in size and shape due to the short range feature of YN interactions, limit of conventional nuclear model (shell or cluster) in solving for many body systems with new degree of freedom, spin dependent forces (spin-spin, spin-orbital, tensor), new symmetry and explicit QCD effect in nuclear media. Many of such issues are impossible or very difficult to be studied in the ordinary nuclear physics. The keys for success in this part of field includes good energy resolution and wide ranged spectroscopy. Until now, many important issues are still unresolved or remained to be resolved in more consistent and satisfactory fashion, such as spin dependent forces. This is due to luck of high quality experimental facilities. Recent experiments at KEK using ([pi][sup +], K[sup +]) reaction with a dedicated new SKS spectrometer have demonstrated the importance of improving the energy resolution. New structures were found as resolution improved only from 3 MeV to 2 MeV.

Book excerpt: The study of hypernuclei affords unique insights into the nature of hadronic forces beyond those obtainable from ordinary nuclear physics research. A hypernucleus consists of one or more hyperons bound to a nuclear core. In the SU(3) classification, [Lambda], [Sigma], and [Xi] hyperons occupy the same octet representation of spin-parity /1/2/ baryons as the neutron and proton, the familiar constituents of ordinary nuclei. The [Lambda] and [Sigma] possess strangeness S = -1 and isotopic spin I = 0, 1, respectively, while the /Xi/ has S = /minus/2, I = /1/2/. In the underlying quark picture, the [Lambda] and /Sigma/ have the flavor structure s(ud)/sub I=0, 1/, compared to the combination uud for the proton. The strange quark, s, carries the strangeness quantum number S = /minus/1, which makes it distinguishable from the S = 0 u and d quarks. The lowest-lying hyperon is the /Lambda/, with a mass of 1,115.6 MeV/c2, some 177 MeV/c2 heavier than the proton. The study of the behavior of a hyperon embedded in the nuclear medium, through the theoretical analysis of level spectra, sheds light on the nature of the hyperon-nucleon (YN) effective interaction, i.e. on the role of the strange quark in strong interactions. This paper investigates the ([pi], K/sup +/) reactions that produce hypernuclei. 32 refs., 5 figs., 2 tabs.
Download or read book Hypernuclear Spectroscopy written by Pavlo Baturin and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-03 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the main tasks of nuclear physics is the study of subatomic particles and their interactions. The nucleon-nucleon interactions have been extensively studied over the last decades and have been supported with plenty of experimental data. The discovery of a new quantum number, strangeness, and a new type of particles that contain it, hyperons, spurred a renewed interest in science. New classes of interactions, hyperon-nucleon, and hyperon- hyperon, evolved. One of the best ways to study such interactions is to place a hyperon inside a nucleus, where it serves as a probe of the internal structure and might manifest properties that cannot be seen in an ordinary nucleus. This book presents the high resolution spectroscopy of light to medium hypernuclei recently obtained in Jefferson Laboratory. The main emphasis is given to the physics of the core-excited states. The described analysis techniques allowed achieving high quality missing mass spectra with energy resolution of 400- 500 keV, an unprecedented value in the history of hypernuclear reaction spectroscopy.
Download or read book Advances in Nuclear Physics written by J. L. Friar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Review articles on three topics of considerable current interest make up the present volume. The first, on A-hypernuclei, was solicited by the editors in order to provide nuclear physicists with a general description of the most recent developments in a field which this audience has largely neglected or, perhaps, viewed as a novelty in which a bizarre nuclear system gave some information about the lambda-nuclear intersection. That view was never valid. The very recent developments reviewed here-particularly those pertaining to hypernuclear excitations and the strangeness exchange reactions-emphasize that this field provides important information about the models and central ideas of nuclear physics. The off-shell behavior of the nucleon-nucleon interaction is a topic which was at first received with some embarrassment, abuse, and neglect, but it has recently gained proper attention in many nuclear problems. Interest was first focused on it in nuclear many-body theory, but it threatened nuclear physicists'comfortable feeling about nonrelativistic potential theory, and many no doubt hoped that it would remain merely an esoteric diversion within the many-body cult. In the editors' opinion, this subject is now emi nently respectable and a review of it indeed timely. The third topic, nuclear charge distributions, is one which almost every nuclear physicist believed had been weIl in hand for some years.
