چکیده
We address the question which additional information on the source shape and dynamics can be extracted from three-particle Bose-Einstein correlations. For chaotic sources the true three-particle correlation term is shown to be sensitive to the momentum dependence of the saddle point of the source and to its asymmetries around that point. For partially coherent sources the three-pion correlator allows to measure the degree of coherence without contamination from resonance decays. We derive the most general Gaussian parametriza-tion of the two-and three-particle correlator for this case and discuss the space-time interpretation of the corresponding parameters.

We present the Yano-Koonin-Podgoretski˘ ı parametrisation of the correlation function. Compared to the conventionally used Cartesian parametrisation, this one provides more straightforward measurement of the duration of the emission process in the fireball and a clearer signal of the longitudinal expansion, which is expected in ulrarelativistic heavy ion collisions.

Low energy π emission in hypernuclear weak decays is related to ∆I = 3/2 part of nonmesonic weak decays according to the soft pion theorem. We show that neither meson exchange pictures nor virtual Σ excitation can solve the π emission puzzle. On the other hand, the direct quark mechanism gives the ratio R(π/π : S-wave, soft pion) ≈ 1/4 for 4ΛHe and 5ΛHe. ∗email: [email protected]

We study the N πN coupling, in the framework of a QCD-inspired confining Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. A simple relativistic confining and instantaneous quark model is reviewed. The Salpeter equation for the qqq nucleon and the q ¯ q boosted pion is solved. The f nπn and f nπ∆ couplings are calculated and they turn out to be reasonably good. The sensibility of f nπn and f nπ∆ to confinement, chiral...

We question the reliability of current estimates for the ∆ mass. We explain why the standard value, determined from pion photoproduction, should not be used in conjunction with present estimates for the ∆ and ∆ masses, determined from pion-nucleon scattering. The resultant mass splittings are internally inconsistent. We also briefly comment on discrepancies found when ‘theoretical’ and ‘experim...
