KN and KbarN Elastic Scattering in the Quark Potential Model
The KN and KbarN low-energy elastic scattering is consistently studied in the
framework of the QCD-inspired quark potential model. The model is composed of
the t-channel one-gluon exchange potential, the s-channel one-gluon exchange
potential and the harmonic oscillator confinement potential. By means of the
resonating group method, nonlocal effective interaction potentials for the KN
and KbarN systems are derived and used to calculate the KN and KbarN elastic
scattering phase shifts. By considering the effect of QCD renormalization, the
contribution of the color octet of the clusters (qqbar) and (qqq) and the
suppression of the spin-orbital coupling, the numerical results are in fairly
good agreement with the experimental data.Comment: 20 pages, 8 figure
Renormalization of the Sigma-Omega model within the framework of U(1) gauge symmetry
It is shown that the Sigma-Omega model which is widely used in the study of
nuclear relativistic many-body problem can exactly be treated as an Abelian
massive gauge field theory. The quantization of this theory can perfectly be
performed by means of the general methods described in the quantum gauge field
theory. Especially, the local U(1) gauge symmetry of the theory leads to a
series of Ward-Takahashi identities satisfied by Green's functions and proper
vertices. These identities form an uniquely correct basis for the
renormalization of the theory. The renormalization is carried out in the
mass-dependent momentum space subtraction scheme and by the renormalization
group approach. With the aid of the renormalization boundary conditions, the
solutions to the renormalization group equations are given in definite
expressions without any ambiguity and renormalized S-matrix elememts are
exactly formulated in forms as given in a series of tree diagrams provided that
the physical parameters are replaced by the running ones. As an illustration of
the renormalization procedure, the one-loop renormalization is concretely
carried out and the results are given in rigorous forms which are suitable in
the whole energy region. The effect of the one-loop renormalization is examined
by the two-nucleon elastic scattering.Comment: 32 pages, 17 figure
Dirac-Schr\"odinger equation for quark-antiquark bound states and derivation of its interaction kerne
The four-dimensional Dirac-Schr\"odinger equation satisfied by
quark-antiquark bound states is derived from Quantum Chromodynamics. Different
from the Bethe-Salpeter equation, the equation derived is a kind of first-order
differential equations of Schr\"odinger-type in the position space. Especially,
the interaction kernel in the equation is given by two different closed
expressions. One expression which contains only a few types of Green's
functions is derived with the aid of the equations of motion satisfied by some
kinds of Green's functions. Another expression which is represented in terms of
the quark, antiquark and gluon propagators and some kinds of proper vertices is
derived by means of the technique of irreducible decomposition of Green's
functions. The kernel derived not only can easily be calculated by the
perturbation method, but also provides a suitable basis for nonperturbative
investigations. Furthermore, it is shown that the four-dimensinal
Dirac-Schr\"odinger equation and its kernel can directly be reduced to rigorous
three-dimensional forms in the equal-time Lorentz frame and the
Dirac-Schr\"odinger equation can be reduced to an equivalent
Pauli-Schr\"odinger equation which is represented in the Pauli spinor space. To
show the applicability of the closed expressions derived and to demonstrate the
equivalence between the two different expressions of the kernel, the t-channel
and s-channel one gluon exchange kernels are chosen as an example to show how
they are derived from the closed expressions. In addition, the connection of
the Dirac-Schr\"odinger equation with the Bethe-Salpeter equation is discussed
Closed expression of the interaction kernel in the Bethe-Salpeter equation for quark-antiquark bound states
The interaction kernel in the Bethe-Salpeter equation for quark-antiquark
bound states is derived from the Bethe-Salpeter equations satisfied by the
quark-antiquark four-point Green's function. The latter equations are
established based on the equations of motion obeyed by the quark and antiquark
propagators, the four-point Green's function and some other kinds of Green's
functions which follow directly from the QCD generating functional. The B-S
kernel derived is given an exact and explicit expression which contains only a
few types of Green's functions. This expression is not only convenient for
perturbative calculations, but also suitable for nonperturbative
investigations.Comment: 27 pages,no figure
Classification of finite dimensional modules of singly atypical type over the Lie superalgebras sl(m/n)
We classify the finite dimensional indecomposable sl(m/n)-modules with at
least a typical or singly atypical primitive weight. We do this classification
not only for weight modules, but also for generalized weight modules. We obtain
that such a generalized weight module is simply a module obtained by
``linking'' sub-quotient modules of generalized Kac-modules. By applying our
results to sl(m/1), we have in fact completely classified all finite
dimensional sl(m/1)-modules.Comment: 17 pages, Late
Strange meson-nucleon states in the quark potential model
The quark potential model and resonating group method are used to investigate
the bound states and/or resonances. The model potential consists of
the t-channel and s-channel one-gluon exchange potentials and the confining
potential with incorporating the QCD renormalization correction and the
spin-orbital suppression effect in it. It was shown in our previous work that
by considering the color octet contribution, use of this model to investigate
the low energy elastic scattering leads to the results which are in pretty
good agreement with the experimental data. In this paper, the same model and
method are employed to calculate the masses of the bound systems.
For this purpose, the resonating group equation is transformed into a standard
Schr\"odinger equation in which a nonlocal effective interaction
potential is included. Solving the Schr\"odinger equation by the variational
method, we are able to reproduce the masses of some currently concerned
states and get a view that these states possibly exist as
molecular states. For the system, the same calculation gives no support to
the existence of the resonance which was announced
recently.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figure
Comment on "Giant Plasticity of a Quantum Crystal"
In their Letter, Haziot et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110 (2013) 035301] report a
novel phenomenon of giant plasticity for hcp Helium-4 quantum crystals. They
assert that Helium-4 exhibits mechanical properties not found in classical
plasticity theory. Specifically, they examine high-quality crystals as a
function of temperature and applied strain, where the shear modulus reaches a
plateau and dissipation becomes close to zero; both quantities are reported to
be independent of stress and strain, implying a reversible dissipation process
and quantum tunneling. In this Comment, we show that these signatures can be
explained with a classical model of thermally activated dislocation glide
without the need to invoke quantum tunneling or dissipationless motion.
Recently, we proposed a dislocation glide model in solid Helium-4 containing
the dissipation contribution in the presence of other dislocations with
qualitatively similar behavior [Zhou et al., Philos. Mag. Lett. 92 (2012) 608].Comment: 1 page, 1 figure, comment; minor revision
Spin gap behavior in CuScGeO by Sc nuclear magnetic resonance
We report the results of a Sc nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) study
on the quasi-one-dimensional compound CuScGeO at
temperatures between 4 and 300 K. This material has been a subject of current
interest due to indications of spin gap behavior. The temperature-dependent NMR
shift exhibits a character of low-dimensional magnetism with a negative broad
maximum at 170 K. Below , the NMR shifts and
spin lattice relaxation rates clearly indicate activated responses, confirming
the existence of a spin gap in CuScGe% O. The experimental
NMR data can be well fitted to the spin dimer model, yielding a spin gap value
of about 275 K which is close to the 25 meV peak found in the inelastic neutron
scattering measurement. A detailed analysis further points out that the nearly
isolated dimer picture is proper for the understanding of spin gap nature in
CuScGeO.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.
