Nucleon QCD sum rules in nuclear matter including radiative corrections
We calculate the nucleon parameters in nuclear matter using the QCD sum rules
method. The radiative corrections to the leading operator product expansion
terms are included, with the corrections of the order \alpha_s beyond the
logarithmic approximation taken into account. The density dependence of the
influence of radiative corrections on the nucleon parameters is obtained. At
saturation density the radiative corrections increase the values of vector and
scalar self-energies by about 40 MeV, and 30 MeV correspondingly. The results
appear to be stable with respect to possible variations of the value of
\Lambda_{QCD}.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figure
Pyramidal Atoms: Berylliumlike Hollow States
Based on the idea that four excited electrons arrange themselves around the
nucleus in the corners of a pyramid in order to minimize their mutual
repulsion, we present an analytical model of quadruply excited states. The
model shows excellent comparison with ab initio results and provides a clear
physical picture of the intrinsic motion of the four electrons. The model is
used to predict configuration-mixing fractions and spectra of these highly
correlated states.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure
Parametrization of the angular correlation and degree of linear polarization in two-photon decays of hydrogen-like ions
The two-photon decay in hydrogen-like ions is investigated within the
framework of second order perturbation theory and Dirac's relativistic
equation. Special attention is paid to the angular correlation of the emitted
photons as well as to the degree of linear polarization of one of the two
photons, if the second is just observed under given angles. Expressions for the
angular correlation and the degree of linear polarization are expanded in terms
of -polynomials, whose coefficients depend on the atomic number and
the energy sharing of the emitted photons. The effects of including higher
(electric and magnetic) multipoles upon the emitted photon pairs beyond the
electric-dipole approximation are also discussed. Calculations of the
coefficients are performed for the transitions ,
and , along the
entire hydrogen isoelectronic sequence ()
Backward scattering of low-energy antiprotons by highly charged and neutral uranium: Coulomb glory
Collisions of antiprotons with He-, Ne-, Ni-like, bare, and neutral uranium
are studied theoretically for scattering angles close to 180 and
antiproton energies with the interval 100 eV -- 10 keV. We investigate the
Coulomb glory effect which is caused by a screening of the Coulomb potential of
the nucleus and results in a prominent maximum of the differential cross
section in the backward direction at some energies of the incident particle. We
found that for larger numbers of electrons in the ion the effect becomes more
pronounced and shifts to higher energies of the antiproton. On the other hand,
a maximum of the differential cross section in the backward direction can also
be found in the scattering of antiprotons on a bare uranium nucleus. The latter
case can be regarded as a manifestation of the screening property of the
vacuum-polarization potential in non-relativistic collisions of heavy
particles.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figure
Scattering states of coupled valence-band holes in point defect potential derived from variable phase theory
In this article we present a method to compute the scattering states of holes
in spherical bands in the strong spin-orbit coupling regime. More precisely, we
calculate scattering phase shifts and amplitudes of holes induced by defects in
a semiconductor crystal. We follow a previous work done on this topic by Ralph
[H. I. Ralph, Philips Res. Rept. 32 160 (1977)] to account for the p-wave
nature and the coupling of valence band states. We extend Ralph's analysis to
incorporate finite-range potentials in the scattering problem. We find that the
variable phase method provides a very convenient framework for our purposes and
show in detail how scattering amplitudes and phase shifts are obtained. The
Green's matrix of the Schroedinger equation, the Lippmann-Schwinger equation
and the Born approximation are also discussed. Examples are provided to
illustrate our calculations with Yukawa type potentials.Comment: 16 pages and 9 figure
Scalar and Spinor Particles with Low Binding Energy in the Strong Stationary Magnetic Field Studied by Means of Two-and Three-Dimensional Models
On the basis of analytic solutions of Schrodinger and Pauli equations for a
uniform magnetic field and a single attractive -potential the
equations for the bound one-active electron states are discussed. It is vary
important that ground electron states in the magnetic field essentially
different from the analog state of spin-0 particles that binding energy has
been intensively studied at more then forty years ago. We show that binding
energy equations for spin-1/2 particles can be obtained without using of a
well-known language of boundary conditions in the model of -potential
that has been developed in pioneering works. Obtained equations are used for
the analytically calculation of the energy level displacements, which
demonstrate nonlinear dependencies on field intensities. It is shown that in a
case of the weak intensity a magnetic field indeed plays a stabilizing role in
considering systems. However the strong magnetic field shows the opposite
action. We are expected that these properties can be of importance for real
quantum mechanical fermionic systems in two- and three-dimensional cases.Comment: 18 page
QCD Sum Rules for Hyperons in Nuclear Matter
Within finite-density QCD sum-rule approach we investigate the self-energies
of hyperons propagating in nuclear matter from a correlator of
interpolating fields evaluated in the nuclear matter ground state. We
find that the Lorentz vector self-energy of the is similar to the
nucleon vector self-energy. The magnitude of Lorentz scalar self-energy of the
is also close to the corresponding value for nucleon; however, this
prediction is sensitive to the strangeness content of the nucleon and to the
assumed density dependence of certain four-quark condensate. The scalar and
vector self-energies tend to cancel, but not completely. The implications for
the couplings of to the scalar and vector mesons in nuclear matter and
for the spin-orbit force in a finite nucleus are discussed.Comment: 20 pages in revtex, 6 figures available under request as ps files,

Calculation of the photoionization with de-excitation cross sections of He and helium-like ions
We discuss the results of the calculation of the photoionization with
de-excitation of excited He and helium-like ions Li and B at high
but non-relativistic photon energies . Several lower and
states are considered. We present and analyze the ratios
of the cross sections of photoionization with de-excitation,
, and of the photo-ionization with excitation,
. The dependence of on the excitation
of the target object and the charge of its nucleus is presented. Apart to
theoretical interest, results obtained can be verified using such long living
excited state as of He.Comment: 10 pages, 6 table
