Propagation of mesons in asymmetric nuclear matter in a density dependent coupling model
We study the propagation of the light mesons sigma, omega, rho, and a0(980)
in dense hadronic matter in an extended derivative scalar coupling model.
Within the scheme proposed it is possible to unambiguously define effective
density-dependent couplings at the Lagrangian level. We first apply the model
to study asymmetric nuclear matter with fixed isospin asymmetry, and then we
pay particular attention to hypermatter in beta-equilibrium. The equation of
state and the potential contribution to the symmetry coefficient arising from
the mean field approximation are investigated.Comment: 17 pages, 15 PostScript figure
Landau parameters for isospin asymmetric nuclear matter based on a relativistic model of composite and finite extension nucleons
We study the properties of cold asymmetric nuclear matter at high density,
applying the quark meson coupling model with excluded volume corrections in the
framework of the Landau theory of relativistic Fermi liquids. We discuss the
role of the finite spatial extension of composite baryons on dynamical and
statistical properties such as the Landau parameters, the compressibility, and
the symmetry energy. We have also calculated the low lying collective
eigenfrequencies arising from the collisionless quasiparticle transport
equation, considering both unstable and stable modes. An overall analysis of
the excluded volume correlations on the collective properties is performed.Comment: 24 pages, 6 figure
