Reaction mechanism and characteristics of T_{20} in d + ^3He backward elastic scattering at intermediate energies
For backward elastic scattering of deuterons by ^3He, cross sections \sigma
and tensor analyzing power T_{20} are measured at E_d=140-270 MeV. The data are
analyzed by the PWIA and by the general formula which includes virtual
excitations of other channels, with the assumption of the proton transfer from
^3He to the deuteron. Using ^3He wave functions calculated by the Faddeev
equation, the PWIA describes global features of the experimental data, while
the virtual excitation effects are important for quantitative fits to the
T_{20} data. Theoretical predictions on T_{20}, K_y^y (polarization transfer
coefficient) and C_{yy} (spin correlation coefficient) are provided up to GeV
energies.Comment: REVTEX+epsfig, 17 pages including 6 eps figs, to be published in

Nuclear structure corrections in the energy spectra of electronic and muonic deuterium
The one-loop nuclear structure corrections of order (Z alpha)^5 to the Lamb
shift and hyperfine splitting of the deuterium are calculated. The contribution
of the deuteron structure effects to the isotope shift (ep)-(ed), (mu p)-(mu d)
in the interval (1S - 2S) is obtained on the basis of modern experimental data
on the deuteron electromagnetic form factors. The comparison with the similar
contributions to the Lamb shift for electronic and muonic hydrogen shows, that
the relative contribution due to the nucleus structure increases when passing
from the hydrogen to the deuterium.Comment: Talk presented at the Conference "Physics of Fundamental

Radiative corrections to polarization observables in elastic electron-deuteron scattering in leptonic variables
The model--independent QED radiative corrections to polarization observables
in elastic scattering of unpolarized and longitudinally--polarized electron
beam by the deuteron target have been calculated in leptonic variables. The
experimental setup when the deuteron target is arbitrarily polarized is
considered and the procedure for applying derived results to the vector or
tensor polarization of the recoil deuteron is discussed. The basis of the
calculations consists of the account for all essential Feynman diagrams which
results in the form of the Drell-Yan representation for the cross-section and
use of the covariant parametrization of the deuteron polarization state. The
numerical estimates of the radiative corrections are given for the case when
event selection allows the undetected particles (photons and electron-positron
pairs) and the restriction on the lost invariant mass is used.Comment: 43 pages,3 figures. To be published in ZhTEF. revised 14.02.2012.

Experimental and Theoretical Results for Weak Charge Current Backward Proton Production
In this paper, we do three things in the study of deuteron break-up by high
energy neutrino beams. (1) We present previously unpublished data on neutrino
induced backward protons from deuteron targets; (2) we calculate the
contributions from both the two-nucleon (2N) and six-quark (6q) deuteron
components, which depend upon the overall normalization of the part that is 6q;
and (3) we suggest other signatures for distinguishing the 2N and 6q clusters.
We conclude that the 6q cluster easily explains the shape of the high momentum
backward proton spectrum, and its size is nicely explained if the amount of 6q
is one or a few percent by normalization of the deuteron. There is a crossover,
above which the 6q contribution is important or dominant, at 300--400 MeV/c
backward proton momentum.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure
Frame Dependence of Spin-One Angular Conditions in Light Front Dynamics
We elaborate the frame dependence of the angular conditions for spin-1 form
factors. An extra angular condition is found in addition to the usual angular
condition relating the four helicity amplitudes. Investigating the
frame-dependence of the angular conditions, we find that the extra angular
condition is in general as complicated as the usual one, although it becomes
very simple in the frame involving only two helicity amplitudes. It
is confirmed that the angular conditions are identical in frames that are
connected by kinematical transformations. The high behaviors of the
physical form factors and the limiting behaviors in special reference frames
are also discussed.Comment: 29 pages RevTeX. submitted to Phys. Rev.
Measurement of Tensor Polarization in Elastic Electron-Deuteron Scattering at Large Momentum Transfer
Tensor polarization observables (t20, t21 and t22) have been measured in
elastic electron-deuteron scattering for six values of momentum transfer
between 0.66 and 1.7 (GeV/c)^2. The experiment was performed at the Jefferson
Laboratory in Hall C using the electron HMS Spectrometer, a specially designed
deuteron magnetic channel and the recoil deuteron polarimeter POLDER. The new
data determine to much larger Q^2 the deuteron charge form factors G_C and G_Q.
They are in good agreement with relativistic calculations and disagree with
pQCD predictions.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, for associated informations, see

Possibility of determinig the parity of the pentaquark from photoproduction near threshold
We discuss the possibility of determining the parity of the baryon
from photoproduction process near threshold. We utilize
the conservation laws of parity and angular momentum for the analysis of
angular distributions and spin observables near threshold. Since the discussion
is in essence a partial wave analysis of the production mechanism the result
should be less dependent on the model parameters. Our analysis shows that the
angular distribution and photon polarization asymmetry for the process of
neutron target are sensitive to the parity of the , but not for the
case of proton target. In the case of proton target, the polarization
asymmetries of target and recoiled are preferred for parity
determination.Comment: 23 pages, 13 figures, extended versio
