The reaction at low energies in a chiral quark model
A chiral quark-model approach is extended to the study of the
scattering at low energies. The process of at
MeV/c (i.e. the center mass energy GeV) is
investigated. This approach is successful in describing the differential cross
sections and total cross section with the roles of the low-lying
resonances in shells clarified. The dominates the
reactions over the energy region considered here. Around MeV/c,
the is responsible for a strong resonant peak in the
cross section. The has obvious contributions around
MeV/c, while the contribution of is less
important in this energy region. The non-resonant background contributions,
i.e. -channel and -channel, also play important roles in the explanation
of the angular distributions due to amplitude interferences.Comment: 18 pages and 7 figure

Baryon masses and nucleon sigma terms in manifestly Lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation theory
We discuss the masses of the ground state baryon octet and the nucleon sigma
terms in the framework of manifestly Lorentz-invariant baryon chiral
perturbation theory. In order to obtain a consistent power counting for
renormalized diagrams the extended on-mass-shell renormalization scheme is
applied.Comment: 18 pages, 3 figures, accepted for publication in J. Phys.
Variations of Hadron Masses and Matter Properties in Dense Nuclear Matter
Using a self-consistent quark model for nuclear matter we investigate
variations of the masses of the non-strange vector mesons, the hyperons and the
nucleon in dense nuclear matter (up to four times the normal nuclear density).
We find that the changes in the hadron masses can be described in terms of the
value of the scalar mean-field in matter. The model is then used to calculate
the density dependence of the quark condensate in-medium, which turns out to be
well approximated by a linear function of the nuclear density. Some relations
among the hadron properties and the in-medium quark condensate are discussed.Comment: 22 pages, University of Adelaide preperint ADP-94-20/T160, submitted
