Vector Formfactors in Hard Pion Chiral Perturbation Theory
We use three-flavour hard pion Chiral Perturbation Theory (HPChPT) in both the heavy meson and a relativistic formulation to calculate the chiral logarithms m2 log ( m2/μ2 ) contributing to the formfactors of the B(s) → π,K, η and D(s) → π,K, η transitions at momentum transfer q2 away from the endpoint q2 max = (mB − mM ) 2. We compare our results with CLEO D → π and D → K data. We also calcula...
متن کاملThe handbag contribution to γγ → ππ and KK
We investigate the soft handbag contribution to two-photon annihilation into pion or kaon pairs at large energy and momentum transfer. The amplitude is expressed as a hard γγ → q ¯ q subprocess times a form factor describing the soft transition from q ¯ q to the meson pair. We find the calculated angular dependence of the cross section in good agreement with data, and extract annihilation form ...
متن کاملHELICITY AND PLANAR AMPLITUDES IN PION-PROTON SCATTERING AT 6.0 GeV/c
In addition to optimal conditions, invariant laws of Lorentz, parity and time reversal are imposed to find the relation between observables (spin rotation parameters) and bilinear combination of helicity amplitudes in pion-proton elastic scattering at 6.0 GeV/c. By normalizing the differential cross-section to unity, the magnitudes of helicity amplitudes and the angle between them are dete...
متن کاملThreshold Pion Production at Large Momentum Transfers
We consider threshold pion electroproduction on a proton target for photon virtualities in the region 1 − 10 GeV. The S-wave multipoles at threshold, E0+ and L0+, are calculated using light-cone sum rules.
متن کاملMeasurement of charged pion and kaon production in proton-carbon interaction at 31 GeV/c from NA61/SHINE
An overview of the recent NA61/SHINE results on determination of charged pion and kaon yields in proton-carbon reactions is presented. The results aim to improve predictions of the neutrino flux in the T2K experiment. The data were recorded during the first physics run of NA61 in 2007 where a proton beam of 31 GeV/c momentum scattered off a graphite target. Thin target, 4% of a nuclear interact...
