A Strange Mesonic

چکیده
The strange-quark vector current ρ-to-π meson transition form factor is computed at one-loop order using strange meson intermediate states. A comparison is made with a φ-meson dominance model estimate. We find that one-loop contributions are comparable in magnitude to those predicted by φ-meson dominance. It is possible that the one-loop contribution can make the matrix element as large as those of the electromagnetic current mediating vector meson radiative decays. However, due to the quadratic dependence of the one-loop results on the hadronic form factor cut-off mass, a large uncertainty in the estimate of the loops is unavoidable. These results indicate that non-nucleonic strange quarks could contribute appreciably in moderate-|Q2| parity-violating electron-nucleus scattering measurements aimed at probing the strange-quark content of the nucleon.

Importance of multi-mesonic fusion processes on (strange) antibaryon production
Sufficiently fast chemical equilibration of (strange) antibaryons in an environment of nucleons, pions and kaons during the course of a relativistic heavy ion collision can be understood by a ‘clustering’ of mesons to buildt up baryon-antibaryon pairs. This multi-mesonic (fusion-type) process has to exist in medium due to the principle of detailed balance. Novel numerical calculations for a dyn...
متن کاملStrange Mesonic Transition Form Factor in the Chiral Constituent Quark Model
The form factor g (S) ρπ (Q2) of the strange vector current transition matrix element 〈ρ|s̄γμs|π〉 is calculated within the chiral quark model. A strange vector current of the constituent U andD-quarks is induced by kaon radiative corrections and this mechanism yields the nonvanishing values of g (S) ρπ (0). The numerical result at the photon point is consistent with the one given by the φ-meson ...
متن کاملThe effects of the kaonic cloud on the neutron electric form factor
We investigate the effects of mesonic clouds on neutron electric and nucleon strange form factors in the framework of the chiral quark soliton model. We present a mechanism to identify the mesonic clouds and their Yukawa tail in the polarized Dirac sea. We find that, assuming hedgehog structures and semiclassical quantization, the neutron electric and the nucleon strange form factors are notice...
متن کاملStrangeness in strongly interacting matter
This talk is devoted to review the field of strangeness production in (ultra-)relativistic heavy ion collisions within our present theoretical understanding. Historically there have been (at least) three major ideas for the interest in the production of strange hadronic particles: (1) mass modification of the kaons in a (baryon-)dense environment; (2) (early) K-production probes the nuclear equ...
متن کاملDibaryons with strangeness: their weak nonleptonic decay using SU(3) symmetry and how to find them in relativistic heavy-Ion collisions
Weak SU(3) symmetry is successfully applied to the weak hadronic decay amplitudes of octet hyperons. Weak nonmesonic and mesonic decays of various dibaryons with strangeness, their dominant decay modes, and lifetimes are calculated. Production estimates for the Brookhaven Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider are presented employing wave-function coalescence. Signals for detecting strange dibaryon st...
