Book excerpt: Conventional pictures of nuclear interactions, in which the pion mediates the long/medium range part of the nuclear force, predict an enhancement of the virtual pion cloud in nuclei relative to that in the free nucleon. Jefferson Lab Experiment E91003 measured charged pion electroproduction from Hydrogen, Deuterium, and Helium-3. The longitudinal cross section, which in the limit of pole dominance can be viewed as the quasifree knockout of a virtual pion, was extracted via a Rosenbluth separation. The longitudinal cross sections from Deuterium and Helium-3 were compared to Hydrogen to look for signatures of the nuclear pions.

Book excerpt: A series of measurements for pion electroproduction from helium-3, deuterium, and hydrogen were completed at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility by the NucPi Collaboration. E91003 began taking data in February 1998 and was completed in April 1998. The longitudinal and transverse parts of the differential cross section were extracted, by means of a Rosenbluth type separation, in the direction parallel to the virtual photon, at Q 2 = 0.4 GeV 2, for W = 1.15 and W = 1.6 GeV. The mass dependence of the longitudinal cross section should provide insight into the surprising apparent absence of any significant cross section enhancement due to excess pions in the nuclear medium.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent studies of pion electroproduction on the deuteron carried out by the ANL group at ALS, Saclay, show that even in the weakly-bound deuteron, multinucleon processes alter the electroproduction amplitudes in the forward direction. The data provide the first experimental indications for a significant change in the pion-nucleon coupling for nucleons bound in nuclei. It is clear that forward-angle electroproduction may be a sensitive probe of the properties of the pion coupling in the nuclear medium. At CEBAF, we will study longitudinal charged-pion electroproduction (in the excitation region below the delta isobar) along the direction of the momentum transfer where the charge scattering process dominates. Direct comparison of the cross section per nucleon in deuterium and the helium isotopes with the experimental value for the free nucleon will provide estimates of the strength of the nuclear pion field. A Rosenbluth separation of the longitudinal and transverse cross sections will be performed for four-momentum transfers of 2.5 and 10 fm−2. Measurements for a number of light nuclei will provide useful data on the sensitivity of longitudinal electroproduction to nuclear binding effects. If current conceptions of pion-exchange currents in nuclei are correct, longitudinal electroproduction will be suppressed at the lower momentum transfer and enhanced at the higher momentum transfer by multinucleon processes. If on the other hand, as suggested by recent data from Drell-Yan studies of antiquark structure functions, there is no such enhancement, a reformulation of pion exchange models of the medium- and short-range properties of nuclear forces will be required. Our proposal to carry out such a series of measurements at CEBAF using the coincident-pair spectrometer system planned for Hall C was approved. Pions will be observed in the short-orbit spectrometer (SOS) which will serve as the second arm.

Book excerpt: The goal of Jefferson Lab experiment E01-004 (F?-2) was the measurement of the longitudinal and transverse cross sections via pion electroproduction from hydrogen and deuterium for the purpose of extracting the charged pion form factor using pole dominance. The data were taken at two values of Q2 (1.60 and 2.45 GeV/c)2. In order to attain full coverage in R?, charged pions were detected in parallel kinematics (along the direction of momentum transfer, q), and at ±3 degrees off the direction of momentum transfer. For each Q2 data were taken for two values of the virtual photon polarization,?, respectively. All data were taken at a fixed center of mass energy, W=2.22 GeV. The longitudinal and transverse pieces of the cross section were separated using the Rosenbluth separation method.

Book excerpt: Separated longitudinal and transverse cross sections for charged pion electroproduction from 1H, 2H, and 3He were measured at Q2 = 0.4 (GeV/c)2 for two values of the invariant mass, {bar W} = 1.15 GeV and {bar W} = 1.60 GeV, in a search for a mass dependence which would signal the effect of nuclear pions. This is the first such study that includes recoil momenta significantly above the Fermi surface. The longitudinal cross section, if dominated by the pion-pole process, should be sensitive to nuclear pion currents. Comparisons of the longitudinal cross section target ratios to a quasifree calculation reveal a significant suppression in {sup 3>}He at {bar W} = 1.60 GeV. The {bar W} = 1.15 GeV results are consistent with simple estimates of the effect of nuclear pion currents, but are also consistent with pure quasifree production.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cross section for the $p(e,espprimepisp+)n, d(e,espprimepisp+)2n$ and $sp3He(e,espprimepisp+)sp3H$ reactions are calculated using a simple model with pion, nucleon and $Delta$-resonance degrees of freedom for the kinematical conditions used in a recent Saclay experiment. For the $d(e,espprimepisp+)2n$ reaction, final state interactions between the two outgoing neutrons are found to have a large effect. The calculated quenching of the $pisp+$ production cross section for the deuterium target is in agreement with that observed experimentally. It is predicted that due to the strong final state interactions in the singlet S state of the two neutrons, the $d(e,espprimepisp+)2n$ cross section can have a large dependence on the orientation of the deuteron spin. For the $sp3He(e,espprimepisp+)sp3H$ reaction, the quenching is predicted to be $sim$0.4 which is in agreement with the unpublished results of the Mainz experiment. The four important contributions to the quenching are identified as: (i) the finite size i.e., the form factor of the trinucleons, (ii) the spin-isospin correlations in the trinucleons, (iii) the finite range of the propagation of the struck proton, and (iv) the possible pion-nucleon final state interactions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the transition region in the description of exclusive processes and hadron structure, from the nucleon-meson degrees of freedom in meson-exchange models at low energy to the quark-gluon degrees of freedom in pQCD at high energy, is essential for us to understand the strong interaction. The differential cross section measurements for exclusive reactions at fixed center-of-mass angles enable us to investigate the constituent counting rule, which explicitly connects the quark-gluon degrees of freedom to the energy dependence of differential cross sections. JLab Experiment E94-104 was carried out in Hall A with two high resolution spectrometers. It included the coincidence cross section measurement for the ?n --> ?-[p] process with a deuterium target and the singles measurement for the ?p --> ?+[n] process with a hydrogen target. The untagged real photons were generated by the electron beam impinging on a copper radiator. The photon energies ranged from 1.1 to 5.5 GeV, corresponding to the center-of-mass energies from 1.7 to 3.4 GeV. The pion center-of-mass angles were fixed at 50 deg, 70 deg, 90 deg, and also 100 deg, 110 deg at a few energies. The JLab E94-104 data presented in this thesis contain four interesting features. The data exhibit a global scaling behavior for both ?- and ?+ photoproduction at high energies and high transverse momenta, consistent with the constituent counting rule and the existing ?+ photoproduction data. This implies that the quark-gluon degrees of freedom start to play a role at this energy scale. The data suggests possible substructure of the scaling behavior, which might be oscillations around the scaling value. There are several possible mechanisms that can cause oscillations, for example the one associated with the generalized constituent counting rule involving quark orbital angular momentum. The data show an enhancement in the scaled cross section at center-of-mass energy near 2.2 GeV, where baryon resonances are not as well known as those at low energies. The differential cross section ratios for exclusive ?n --> ?-[p] to ?p --> ?+[n] process at ?cm = 90 deg start to show consistency with the prediction based on one-hard-gluon-exchange diagrams at high energies.
