On the and Photoproduction Beam Asymmetry at High Energies
We show that, in the Regge limit, beam asymmetries in and
photoproduction are sensitive to hidden strangeness components. Under
reasonable assumptions about the couplings we estimate the contribution of the
Regge pole, which is expected to be the dominant hidden strangeness
contribution. The ratio of the asymmetries in and production is
estimated to be close to unity in the forward region at the photon energy ~GeV, relevant for the upcoming
measurements at Jefferson Lab.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
Analyticity constraints for hadron amplitudes : going high to heal low energy issues
Analyticity constitutes a rigid constraint on hadron scattering amplitudes. This property is used to relate models in different energy regimes. Using meson photoproduction as a benchmark, we show how to test contemporary low-energy models directly against high-energy data. This method pinpoints deficiencies of the models and treads a path to further improvement. The implementation of this technique enables one to produce more stable and reliable partial waves for future use in hadron spectroscopy and new physics searches
Bilepton effects on the WWV^* vertex in the 331 model with right-handed neutrinos via a SU_L(2)XU_Y(1) covariant quantization scheme
In a recent paper, we investigated the effects of the massive charged gauge
bosons (bileptons) predicted by the minimal 331 model on the off-shell vertex
WWV^* (V=gamma, Z) using a SU_L(2) X U_Y(1) covariant gauge-fixing term for the
bileptons. We proceed along the same lines and calculate the effects of the
gauge bosons predicted by the 331 model with right-handed neutrinos. It is
found that the bilepton effects on the WWV^* vertex are of the same order of
magnitude than those arising from the SM and several of its extensions,
provided that the bilepton mass is of the order of a few hundred of GeVs. For
heavier bileptons, their effects on the WWV^* vertex are negligible. The
behavior of the form factors at high energies is also discussed as it is a
reflect of the gauge invariance and gauge independence of the WWV^* Green
function obtained via our quantization method.Comment: Replaced to match published versio
Finite-Energy Sum Rules in Eta Photoproduction off the Nucleon
The reaction is studied in the high-energy regime
(with photon lab energies GeV) using
information from the resonance region through the use of finite-energy sum
rules (FESR). We illustrate how analyticity allows one to map the t-dependence
of the unknown Regge residue functions. We provide predictions for the energy
dependence of the beam asymmetry at high energies.Comment: Joint Physics Analysis Cente
