Some aspects of parity determination in the reaction
We analyze the problem of how to determine the parity of the
pentaquark in the reaction , where .
Our model calculations indicate that the contribution of the non-resonant
background of the reaction cannot be neglected, and
that suggestions to determine the parity based solely on the initial-stage
process cannot be implemented cleanly. We discuss the
various mechanisms that contribute to the background, and we identify some spin
observables which are sensitive.Comment: 39 pages, 25 figure
Charmonium absorption by nucleons
dissociation in collisions with nucleons is studied within a boson
exchange model and the energy dependence of the dissociation cross section is
calculated from the threshold for production to high
energies. We illustrate the agreement of our results with calculations based on
short distance QCD and Regge theory. The compatibility between our calculations
and the data on photoproduction on a nucleon is discussed. We evaluate
the elastic cross section using a forward dispersion relation and
demonstrate the overall agreement with the predictions from QCD sum rules. Our
results are compatible with the phenomenological dissociation cross section
evaluated from the experimental data on production from ,
and collisions.Comment: 14 pages, revtex, including 13 figures, accepted for publication in

On the effects of the final state interaction in the electro-disintegration of the deuteron at intermediate and high energies
The role of the final state interactions (FSI) in the inclusive quasi-elastic
disintegration of the deuteron is investigated treating the two-nucleon final
state within the exact continuum solutions of the non-relativistic Schroedinger
equation, as well as within the Glauber multiple scattering approach. It is
shown that for values of the Bjorken scaling variable both
approaches provide similar results, unless the case , where
they appreciably disagree. It is demonstrated that present experimental data,
which are mostly limited to a region of four-momentum transfer () where the Center-of-Mass energy of the final state is below the
pion threshold production, can be satisfactorily reproduced by the approach
based on the exact solution of the Schroedinger equation and not by the Glauber
approach. It is also pointed out that the latter, unlike the former, does not
satisfy the inelastic Coulomb sum rule, the violation being of the order of
about 20%.Comment: 16 LaTeX pages, 10 eps-figures, 1 tabl
Relativistic Structure of the Deuteron: 1.Electro-disintegration and y-scaling
Realistic solutions of the spinor-spinor Bethe-Salpeter equation for the
deuteron with realistic interaction kernel including the exchange of pi, sigma,
omega, rho, eta and delta mesons, are used to systematically investigate
relativistic effects in inclusive quasi-elastic electron-deuteron scattering
within the relativistic impulse approximation. Relativistic y-scaling is
considered by generalising the non relativistic scaling function to the
relativistic case, and it is shown that y-scaling does occur in the usual
relativistic scaling variable resulting from the energy conservation in the
instant form of dynamics. The present approach of y-scaling is fully covariant,
with the deuteron being described by eight components, viz. the 3S_1^{++},
3S_1^{--}, 3D_1^{++}, 3D_1^{--}, 3P_1^{+-}, 3P_1^{-+}, 1P_1^{+-}, 1P_1^{-+}
waves. It is demonstrated that if the negative relative energy states 1P_1,
3P_1 are disregarded, the concept of covariant momentum distributions N(p_0,p),
with p_0=M_D/2-\sqrt{p^2+m^2}, can be introduced, and that calculations of
lectro-disintegration cross section in terms of these distributions agree
within few percents with the exact calculations which include the 1P_1, 3P_1
states, provided the nucleon three momentum |p|\<= 1 GeV/c; in this momentum
range, the asymptotic relativistic scaling function is shown to coincide with
the longitudinal covariant momentum distribution.Comment: 32 LaTeX pages, 18 eps-figures. Final version to appear in Phys. Rev.
The Spin-Dependent Structure Functions of Nuclei in the Meson-Nucleon Theory
A theoretical approach to the investigation of spin-dependent structure
functions in deep inelastic scattering of polarized leptons off polarized
nuclei, based on the effective meson-nucleon theory and operator product
expansion method, is proposed and applied to deuteron and . The explicit
forms of the moments of the deuteron and spin-dependent structure
functions are found and numerical estimates of the influence of nuclear
structure effects are presented.Comment: 42 pages revtex, 7 postscript figures available from above e-mail

Next-to-Leading Order QCD Analysis of Polarized Deep Inelastic Scattering Data
We present a Next-to-Leading order perturbative QCD analysis of world data on
the spin dependent structure functions , and , including
the new experimental information on the dependence of . Careful
attention is paid to the experimental and theoretical uncertainties. The data
constrain the first moments of the polarized valence quark distributions, but
only qualitatively constrain the polarized sea quark and gluon distributions.
The NLO results are used to determine the dependence of the ratio
and evolve the experimental data to a constant . We
determine the first moments of the polarized structure functions of the proton
and neutron and find agreement with the Bjorken sum rule.Comment: 21 pages, 4 figures; final version to be published in Phys. Lett. B.
