J/ψ absorption by nucleons in the meson-exchange model
نویسندگان
چکیده
We reinvestigate theJ/ψ dissociation processes induced by the reactions with nucleons, J/ψ+N → D̄+ c, in the meson-exchange model. Main constraints used in this work are vector-meson dominance and charm vector-current conservation. We show that the cross section for J/ψ +N → D̄ + c can be larger than that for J/ψ+N → D̄ + c when these constraints are imposed. The dependence of the cross sections on the coupling constants is analyzed in detail, and the comparison with the recent quark-interchange model predictions is also made.

a [ We review the meson-exchange model for charmonium absorption by hadrons. This includes the construction of the interaction Lagrangians, the determination of the coupling constants, the introduction of form factors, and the predicted cross sections for J/ψ absorption by both mesons and nucleons. We further discuss the effects due to anomalous parity interactions, uncertainties in form factor...
متن کاملModel for J/ψ absorption in hadronic matter
The cross sections for J/ψ absorption by π and ρ mesons are studied in a meson-exchange model that includes not only pseudoscalar-pseudoscalarvector-meson couplings but also three-vector-meson and four-point couplings. We find that they are much larger than in a previous study where only pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar-vector-meson couplings were considered. Including form factors at interaction vert...

The cross sections of J/ψ absorption by π and ρ mesons are studied in a meson-exchange model that includes not only the pseudoscalar-pseudoscalarvector-meson couplings but also the three-vector-meson and four-point couplings. We find that the J/ψ absorption cross sections, σπψ and σρψ, are much larger than in a previous study where only pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar-vectormeson couplings were consi...
متن کاملPhotoproduction Constraints on J/ψ-Nucleon Interactions
Using J/ψ and open charm photoproduction data, we apply the vector meson dominance model to obtain constraints on the energy dependence of the inelastic J/ψ-nucleon cross section. Predictions of short distance QCD are in accord with these constraints, while recently proposed hadronic models for J/ψ dissociation strongly violate them. The energy dependence of the inelastic J/ψ-nucleon cross sect...
متن کاملColor-Octet Fraction in J/ψ Production
The cross section between a cc̄ object and a nucleon is small if the object is in a color-singlet state, but very large and insensitive to its size if it is in a color-octet state. We use this property to estimate the fraction of cc̄ coloroctet states formed after the initial hard-scattering processes by studying the effective J/ψ absorption in a nucleus. The experimental NA3 and E772 data of pA→...
