نویسنده
چکیده
The Σ(1385) analysis and the current status of pentaquark search with the STAR detector are reported. The corrected pT spectra and the yields of the Σ±(1385) and their antiparticles in the most central Au+Au as well as elementary p+p collisions are presented. A comparison of the 〈pT 〉 of observed particles suggests a similar behavior for particles with mass greater than 1.2 GeV in p+p and Au+Au collision environments. Acceptance and efficiency studies with simulations show that the (anti)pentaquarks should be found at the 3 % level.

The status of Compton scattering by the nucleon at energies of the first and second resonance is summarized. In addition to a general test of dispersion theories and a precise determination of polarizabilities, the validities of four fundamental sum rules are explored. Recommended averages of experimental values for the electromagnetic polarizabilities and spin-polarizabilities of the nucleon a...

We study the interaction of the Θ + pentaquark with nuclear matter associated to the KN decay channels and to the two meson cloud. We find that the potential is attractive and could be strong enough to lead to the existence of Θ + nuclear bound states.

Knowledge of the γ-ray branching ratios of the 7.12-MeV state of 16 O is important for the extrapolation of the 12 C(α,γ) 16 O cross section to astrophysical energies. Ground state transitions provide most of the 12 C(α,γ) 16 O total cross section while cascade transitions have contributions of the order of 10-20%. Determining the 7.12 → 6.92-MeV branching ratio will also result in a better ext...
