We propose a model of suppression of large pT -pions in heavy ion collisions based on the interaction of the large pT pion with the dense medium created in the collision. The model is practically the same as the one previously introduced to describe J/ψ suppression. Both the pT and the centrality dependence of the data are reproduced. In deuteron-gold collisions, the effect of the final state i...

An overview is given of some recent and planned experiments which have or will substantially increase our knowledge of the electromagnetic properties of the few body systems. Specific examples include the proton and neutron elastic form factors, the deuteron elastic form factors, deuteron threshold electro-disintigration and quasi-elastic scattering, deuteron photodisintigration, and finally me...

The excited-state deuteron transfer (ESDT) of deuterated 7-hydroxyquinoline (7DQ) along a heterogeneous hydrogen (H)-bonded chain composed of two deuterated alcohol (ROD) molecules having different acidities, as a model system of a proton wire consisting of diverse amino acids, has been investigated. To understand dynamic differences between deuteron transfer and proton transfer, solvent-invent...

The Coulomb interaction between the two protons is included in the calculation of proton-deuteron breakup and of three-body electromagnetic disintegration of 3 He. The hadron dynamics is based on the purely nucleonic charge-dependent (CD) Bonn potential and its realistic extension CD Bonn + ∆ to a coupled-channel two-baryon potential, allowing for single virtual ∆-isobar excitation. Calculation...

Relativistic Calculation of Structure Functions b 1,2 (x) of the Deuteron. Abstract The structure functions b D 1,2 (x) of the deuteron are studied within covariant approach. It is shown that usual nonrelativistic convolution model result in incorrect behavior of this structure functions at small x and violates the exact sum rules. Realistic calculations are carried out with the Bethe-Salpeter ...

We find the leading order result for the anapole form factor of the deuteron using effective field theory. The momentum dependence of the anapole form factor is different from that of the matrix element of the strange currents in the deuteron, which may provide a way for disentangling these two competing effects when analyzing parity violating electron-deuteron scattering experiments. We give c...
