Front-form calculation of the deuteron EM form factors
نویسنده
چکیده
The deuteron form factors are calculated in the framework of the relativistic nucleon-meson dynamics. The relativistic effects change considerably the Sand D-waves of the deuteron, result in the dominating extra component in the deuteron wave function and generate the contact interaction between the nucleon, mesons and photon. The prediction for the polarization observable t20 is in good agreement with the recent data of TJNAF/CEBAF.

A 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 کاملDeuteron Magnetic and Quadrupole Moments with a Poincaré Covariant Current Operator in the Front-Form Dynamics
The deuteron magnetic and quadrupole moments are unambiguosly determined within the front-form Hamiltonian dynamics, by using a new current operator which fulfills Poincaré, parity and time reversal covariance, together with hermiticity and the continuity equation. For both quantities the usual disagreement between theoretical and experimental results is largely removed. To appear in Phys. Rev....

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...

متن کاملA pr 1 99 8 Explicitly Covariant Light - Front Dynamics and Relativistic Few - Body Systems
The wave function of a composite system is defined in relativity on a space-time surface. In the explicitly covariant light-front dynamics, reviewed in the present article, the wave functions are defined on the plane ω·x = 0, where ω is an arbitrary four-vector with ω = 0. The standard non-covariant approach is recovered as a particular case for ω = (1, 0, 0,−1). Using the light-front plane is ...
