Soft-core meson-baryon interactions. II. and scattering
The potential includes the t-channel exchanges of the scalar-mesons
and f_0, vector-meson , tensor-mesons f_2 and f_2' and the
Pomeron as well as the s- and u-channel exchanges of the nucleon N and the
resonances , Roper and S_{11}. These resonances are not generated
dynamically. We consider them as, at least partially, genuine three-quark
states and we treat them in the same way as the nucleon. The latter two
resonances were needed to find the proper behavior of the phase shifts at
higher energies in the corresponding partial waves. The soft-core -model
gives an excellent fit to the empirical S- and P-wave phase shifts up
to T_{lab}=600 MeV. Also the scattering lengths have been reproduced well and
the soft-pion theorems for low-energy scattering are satisfied. The
soft-core model for the interaction is an SU_f(3)-extension of the
soft-core -model. The potential includes the t-channel exchanges
of the scalar-mesons a_0, and f_0, vector-mesons , and
, tensor-mesons a_2, f_2 and f_2' and the Pomeron as well as u-channel
exchanges of the hyperons and . The fit to the empirical S-, P- and D-wave phase shifts up to T_{lab}=600 MeV is reasonable and
certainly reflects the present state of the art. Since the various
phase shift analyses are not very consistent, also scattering observables are
compared with the soft-core -model. A good agreement for the total and
differential cross sections as well as the polarizations is found.Comment: 24 pages, 20 PostScript figures, revtex4, submitted to Phys. Rev.
The event generator DECAY4 for simulation of double beta processes and decay of radioactive nuclei
The computer code DECAY4 is developed to generate initial energy, time and
angular distributions of particles emitted in radioactive decays of nuclides
and nuclear (atomic) deexcitations. Data for description of nuclear and atomic
decay schemes are taken from the ENSDF and EADL database libraries. The
examples of use of the DECAY4 code in several underground experiments are
described.Comment: 8 pages, 1 fi
Discovery of naked charm particles and lifetime differences among charm species using nuclear emulsion techniques innovated in Japan
This is a historical review of the discovery of naked charm particles and lifetime differences among charm species. These discoveries in the field of cosmic-ray physics were made by the innovation of nuclear emulsion techniques in Japan. A pair of naked charm particles was discovered in 1971 in a cosmic-ray interaction, three years prior to the discovery of the hidden charm particle, J/Ψ, in western countries. Lifetime differences between charged and neutral charm particles were pointed out in 1975, which were later re-confirmed by the collaborative Experiment E531 at Fermilab. Japanese physicists led by K.Niu made essential contributions to it with improved emulsion techniques, complemented by electronic detectors. This review also discusses the discovery of artificially produced naked charm particles by us in an accelerator experiment at Fermilab in 1975 and of multiple-pair productions of charm particles in a single interaction in 1987 by the collaborative Experiment WA75 at CERN
