In-Medium Baryon Interactions and Hypernuclear Structure
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a microscopic and relativistic theory describing free scattering and finite nuclei for the octet baryons in a consistent quantum field theoretical framework based on Dirac-Brueckner theory and nuclear mean-field. In a first quantitative approach yet still heuristic for dealing with the Λ hyperon the quality of the description of finite (hyper)nuclei based on free meson exchange potentials is competitive with those from purely phenomenological relativistic mean-field calculations. In contrast to the latter our approach has the advantage of having a microscopic link to free interactions and complete control on which classes of diagrams are included. As a complementary way for determining hyperon-hyperon and hyperon-nucleon interactions the use of Hanbury-BrownTwiss interferometry is discussed.

The transition from mean-field to correlation dynamics is studied by nuclear many-body theory in nuclear matter and finite nuclei at extreme isospin. In-medium interactions in nuclear and hypernuclear matter are described by DDRH theory with density dependent meson-baryon vertex functionals. Dynamical correlations from pairing interactions and core polarization are found to increase strongly wh...
متن کاملIn-medium Λ interactions and hypernuclear structure
We study the interactions of the octet baryons in a relativistic meson exchange approach connecting freespace and in-medium interactions with those in finite (hyper)nuclei. Our approach is based on the covariant meson exchange framework. To generate the effective microscopic interaction in finite nuclei an approach using Tmatrix theory with a three dimensionally reduced twonucleon propagator is...

In symmetric nuclear matter and stable nuclei one uses very often strictly phenomenological approaches, both in non-relativistic and relativistic formulation. In this contribution, a fully microscopic approach to nucleon-nucleon (NN) interactions in symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter and extensions to hypernuclear matter will be discussed. Dirac-Brueckner theory is used to derive inmedium ...
