چکیده

We show that kaonic nuclei can be produced by the (K, p) and (K, n) reactions. The reactions are shown to have cross sections experimentally measurable. The observation of the kaonic nuclei gives a kaon-nucleus potential which answers the question on the existence of kaon condensation in dense nuclear matter especially neutron stars.

Kaonic nuclei excited by the ( K − , N ) reaction

We show that kaonic nuclei can be produced by the (K−, p) and (K−, n) reactions. The reactions are shown to have cross sections experimentally measurable. The observation of the kaonic nuclei gives a kaon-nucleus potential which answers the question on the existence of kaon condensation in dense nuclear matter especially neutron stars.

The fusion cross-sections for 16 O + 208 Pb, measured to high precision, enable the extraction of the distribution of fusion barriers. This shows a structure markedly different from the single–barrier which might be expected for fusion of two doubly– closed shell nuclei. The results of exact coupled channel calculations performed to understand the observations are presented. These calculations ...

Formation of Kaonic Atoms and Kaonic Nuclei in In-Flight (K, p) Reactions

We theoretically study kaonic atom and kaonic nucleus formation in in-flight (K−, p) reactions for C, O, Si and Ca targets. Deeply bound kaonic atoms were previously predicted to exist as quasi-stable states, and it is expected that they can be observed using certain well-suited experimental methods. Kaonic nuclear states have also been predicted to exist with large decay widths. We evaluate th...

It is shown that the vacuum of QED 2 in Minkowski spacetime does not favour a periodic electric mean field. The projected effective action exhibiting a genuine dependence on the non-vanishing background field has been introduced. The functional dependence of the energy density of the vacuum on the assumed periodic vacuum expectation value of the vector potential is determined from the component...

We compute the energy level displacement of the excited np states of kaonic hydrogen within the quantum field theoretic and relativistic covariant model of strong low–energy K̄N interactions suggested in EPJA 21, 11 (2004). For the width of the energy level of the excited 2p state of kaonic hydrogen, caused by strong low–energy interactions, we find Γ2p = 2meV = 3 × 1012 sec−1. This result is im...
