Comparing phenomenological recipes with a microscopic model for the electric amplitude in strangeness photoproduction
Corrections to the Born approximation in photo-induced strangeness production
off a proton are calculated in a semi-realistic microscopic model. The vertex
corrections and internal contributions to the amplitude of the reaction are included on the one-loop level. Different
gauge-invariant phenomenological prescriptions for the modification of the Born
contribution via the introduction of form factors and contact terms are
discussed. In particular, it is shown that the popular minimal-substitution
method of Ohta corresponds to a special limit of the more realistic approach.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures in the tex
Electron-positron, parton-parton and photon-photon production of -lepton pairs: anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments spin effects
Anomalous contributions to the electric and magnetic dipole moments of the
lepton from new physics scenarios have brought renewed interest in the
development of new charge-parity violating signatures in pair production
at Belle II energies, and also at higher energies of the Large Hadron Collider
and the Future Circular Collider. In this paper, we discuss the effects of spin
correlations, including transverse degrees of freedom, in the pair
production and decay. These studies include calculating analytical formulas,
obtaining numerical results, and building semi-realistic observables sensitive
to the transverse spin correlations induced by the dipole moments of the
lepton.
The effects of such anomalous contributions to the dipole moments are
introduced on top of precision simulations of ,
and processes,
involving multi-body final states. Respective extensions of the Standard Model
amplitudes and the reweighting algorithms are implemented into the {\tt KKMC}
Monte Carlo, which is used to simulate pair production in
collisions, and the {\tt TauSpinner} program, which is used to reweight events
with pair produced in collisions.Comment: 28 pages, 5 figure
The one-body and two-body density matrices of finite nuclei with an appropriate treatment of the center-of-mass motion
The one-body and two-body density matrices in coordinate space and their
Fourier transforms in momentum space are studied for a nucleus (a
nonrelativistic, self-bound finite system). Unlike the usual procedure,
suitable for infinite or externally bound systems, they are determined as
expectation values of appropriate intrinsic operators, dependent on the
relative coordinates and momenta (Jacobi variables) and acting on intrinsic
wavefunctions of nuclear states. Thus, translational invariance (TI) is
respected. When handling such intrinsic quantities, we use an algebraic
technique based upon the Cartesian representation, in which the coordinate and
momentum operators are linear combinations of the creation and annihilation
operators a^+ and a for oscillator quanta. Each of the relevant multiplicative
operators can then be reduced to the form: one exponential of the set {a^+}
times other exponential of the set {a}. In the course of such a normal-ordering
procedure we offer a fresh look at the appearance of "Tassie-Barker" factors,
and point out other model-independent results. The intrinsic wavefunction of
the nucleus in its ground state is constructed from a
nontranslationally-invariant (nTI) one via existing projection techniques. As
an illustration, the one-body and two-body momentum distributions (MDs) for the
4He nucleus are calculated with the Slater determinant of the
harmonic-oscillator model as the trial, nTI wavefunction. We find that the TI
introduces important effects in the MDs.Comment: 13 pages, incl. 3 figures - to appear in Eur. Phys. J.
On the consistency of a non-Hermitian Yukawa interaction
We study different properties of an anti-Hermitian Yukawa interaction,
motivated by a scenario of radiative anomalous generation of masses for the
right-handed sterile neutrinos. The model, involving either a pseudo-scalar or
a scalar, is consistent both at the classical and quantum levels, and
particular attention is given to its properties under improper Lorentz
transformations. The path integral is consistently defined with a Euclidean
signature, and we discuss the energetics of the model, which show that no
dynamical mass generation can occur, unless extra interactions are considered.Comment: 7 pages, comments adde

In the present work the information about roentgens of skull bones at women of fertile period with polycystosis of ovaries and hypoactivity of thyroid gland is presented. It is revealed that more frequently met rontgenologic factors at patients with this pathology are small turkish saddle, narrowing of entrance in turkish saddle, endocraniosos and craniostenosis.В настоящей работе представлены данные о рентгенологических особенностях костей черепа у женщин фертильного возраста с поликистозом яичников и гипофункцией щитовидной железы. Выявлено, что наиболее часто встречались у пациенток с данной патологией на фоне гипокальциемии такие рентгенологические признаки эндокринной патологии, как малое турецкое седло, сужение входа в турецкое седло, эндокраниоз и краниостеноз
Virtual-pion and two-photon production in pp scattering
Two-photon production in pp scattering is proposed as a means of studying
virtual-pion emission. Such a process is complementary to real-pion emission in
pp scattering. The virtual-pion signal is embedded in a background of
double-photon bremsstrahlung. We have developed a model to describe this
background process and show that in certain parts of phase space the
virtual-pion signal gives significant contribution. In addition, through
interference with the two-photon bremsstrahlung background, one can determine
the relative phase of the virtual-pion process
Consistent off-shell vertex and nucleon self-energy
We present a consistent calculation of half-off-shell form factors in the
pion-nucleon vertex and the nucleon self-energy. Numerical results are
presented. Near the on-shell point the pion-nucleon vertex is dominated by the
pseudovector coupling, while at large nucleon invariant masses we find a
sizable pseudoscalar admixture.Comment: 23 pages, 7 figures, REVTeX, submitted to Phys. Rev. C, replaced with

Structure analysis of the virtual Compton scattering amplitude at low energies
We analyze virtual Compton scattering off the nucleon at low energies in a
covariant, model-independent formalism.
We define a set of invariant functions which, once the irregular nucleon pole
terms have been subtracted in a gauge-invariant fashion, is free of poles and
kinematical zeros.
The covariant treatment naturally allows one to implement the constraints due
to Lorentz and gauge invariance, crossing symmetry, and the discrete
symmetries.
In particular, when applied to the reaction,
charge-conjugation symmetry in combination with nucleon crossing generates four
relations among the ten originally proposed generalized polarizabilities of the
nucleon.Comment: 19 pages, LaTeX2e/RevTeX, no figures, original sections IV.-VI.
