Photo-emission of two protons from nuclei
نویسندگان
چکیده
The photo-emission of two protons from the C, O and Ca nuclei is investigated. Aim of the work is the study of the possibilities offered by this probe to obtain information about the characteristics of the short-range correlations. We have also evaluated the effects of the two-body ∆-currents which, in this processes, compete with those produced by the short-range correlations. Our results show that (γ,pp) processes could be more useful than (e,e’pp) for the study of the short-range correlations.

Models for γ-ray emission from active galactic nuclei (AGN) based on hadronic interactions have in the past considered interactions between relativistic protons and matter in an accretion disk surrounding a black hole. However, it has become evident that γ-rays originate in relativistic jets in which the matter density is too low to provide the required target matter for relativistic protons. T...
متن کاملA model for the electromagnetic spectrum of the inner jets of Cen A
Centaurus A, the closest active galaxy, has been detected from radio to high-energy gamma-rays. The synchrotron radiation by extremely high energy protons may be a suitable mechanism to explain the MeV to GeV emission detected by the instruments of the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory, as coming from the inner jets. This scenario requires a relatively large magnetic field of about 10 4 G that coul...
متن کاملThe Impact of Heavy Nuclei on the Cosmogenic Neutrino Flux
As ultra-high energy cosmic ray protons propagate through the universe, they undergo photo-meson interactions with the cosmic microwave background, generating the ‘cosmogenic’ neutrino flux. If a substantial fraction of the cosmic ray primaries are heavy nuclei rather than protons, however, they would preferentially lose energy through photo-disintegration, so the corresponding neutrino flux ma...

The knowledge of nuclear reaction rates is important for studying energy production and nucleosynthesis, especially in reactions including nuclei far from stability line, which are not accessible experimentally so far and thus it is necessary to be able to predict reaction cross sections in low excitation energies. Nuclear level density is one of the important key quantities in many nuclear phy...
متن کاملSignatures of Energetic Protons in Hot Accretion Flows: Synchrotron Cooling of Protons in Strongly Magnetized Pulsars
The existence of hot, two-temperature accretion flows is essential to the recent discussions of the low luminosity, hard X-ray emission from accreting neutron stars and black holes in Galactic binaries and massive black holes in low luminosity galactic nuclei. In these flows, protons are essentially virialized and relativistic energies for non-thermal protons are likely. Observational confirmat...
