A ug 1 99 5 Chirally Constraining the ππ Interaction in Nuclear Matter

چکیده
A general prescription for the construction of ππ interaction potentials which preserve scattering length constraints from chiral symmetry when iterated in scattering equations is derived. The prescription involves only minor modifications of typical meson-exchange models, so that coupling constants and cutoff masses in the models are not greatly affected. Calculations of s-wave ππ scattering amplitudes in nuclear matter for two models are compared with those for similar models which violate the chiral constraint. While the prescription tends to suppress the accumulation of the near sub-threshold strength of the ππ interaction, an earlier conjecture that amplitudes which satisfy chiral constraints will not exhibit an instability towards ππ s−wave pair condensation appears to be incorrect. At the same time, however, conventional ππ interaction models which fit scattering data well can readily be adjusted to avoid the instability in nuclear matter without recourse to exotic mechanisms.

A meson exchange model of the ππ interaction which fits free ππ scattering data is used to calculate the interactions of pions in nuclear matter as a function of nuclear density. Polarization of the nuclear medium by the pions results in a marked increase in the s-wave ππ attraction at low energy. The influence of this effect on the nucleon-nucleon interaction is a corresponding increase with d...

Chiral nonperturbative approach to the isoscalar s-wave ππ interaction in a nuclear medium Abstract The s-wave isoscalar amplitude for ππ scattering in a nuclear medium is evaluated using a nonperturbative unitary coupled channels method and the standard chiral Lagrangians. The method has proved successful to describe the ππ properties in the scalar isoscalar channel up to 1.2 GeV giving rise t...

CERN measurements of πp → ππn on polarized target at 17.2 GeV/c enable experimental determination of partial wave production amplitudes below 1080 MeV. The measured S-wave transversity amplitudes provide evidence for a narrow scalar resonance σ(770). The assumption of analyticity of production amplitudes in dipion mass allows to determine S-wave helicity amplitudes S0 and S1. The helicity flip ...

Two examples of “exotic” phenomena which become possible and important in the presence of nuclear matter are discussed: ω → ππ decay, and ρ − ω mixing. Significance of these processes for the low-mass dilepton production in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is indicated.
