A Poincaré Covariant Current Operator for Low and High Energy Phenomena
نویسنده
چکیده
Within front-form dynamics and in the Breit frame where initial and final three-momenta of the system are directed along the z axis, Poincaré covariance constrains the current operator only through kinematical rotations around the z axis. Therefore, in this frame the current can be taken in the one-body form. Applications to deep inelastic structure functions in an exactly solvable model and to the deuteron magnetic form factor are presented.

Deuteron Electromagnetic Properties with a Poincaré-covariant Current Operator within Front-form Hamiltonian Dynamics
Deuteron elastic and deep inelastic electromagnetic properties have been studied within the front-form Hamiltonian dynamics, using a Poincaré-covariant current operator. The deuteron elastic form factors are strongly sensitive to different realistic N−N interactions, while the relevance of different nucleon form factor models is huge for A(Q), weak for B(Q) and negligible for the tensor polariz...
متن کاملA Poincaré - covariant current operator for interacting systems and deuteron electromagnetic form factors
In front-form dynamics a current operator for systems of interacting particles, which fulfills Poincaré, parity and time reversal covariance, together with hermiticity, can be defined. The electromagnetic form factors can be extracted without any ambiguity and in the elastic case the continuity equation is automatically satisfied. Applications to the calculation of deuteron form factors are pre...
متن کاملPoincaré Covariant Current Operator for Deep Inelastic Structure Functions and Deuteron Electromagnetic Properties
In front-form dynamics the current operator can be constructed from auxiliary operators, defined in a Breit frame where initial and final three-momenta of the system are directed along the z axis. Poincaré covariance constraints reduce for auxiliary operators to the ones imposed only by kinematical rotations around the z axis. Elastic and transition form factors can be extracted without any amb...

In this paper the relativistic quantum mechanics is considered in the framework of the nonstandard synchronization scheme for clocks. Such a synchronization preserves Poincaré covariance but (at least formally) distinguishes an inertial frame. This enables to avoid the problem of a noncausal transmision of information related to breaking of the Bell's inequalities in QM. Our analysis has been f...
متن کاملNoether symmetries, energy-momentum tensors and conformal invariance in classical field theory
In the framework of classical field theory, we first review the Noether theory of symmetries, with simple rederivations of its essential results, with special emphasis given to the Noether identities for gauge theories. Will this baggage on board, we next discuss in detail, for Poincaré invariant theories in flat spacetime, the differences between the Belinfante energy-momentum tensor and a fam...
