Transversity and Meson Photoproduction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Both meson photoproduction and semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering can potentially probe transversity in the nucleon. We explore how that potential can be realized dynamically. The role of rescattering in both exclusive and inclusive meson production as a source for transverse polarization asymmetry is examined. We use a dynamical model to calculate the asymmetry and relate that to the transversity distribution of the nucleon.

Completeness Rules for Spin Observables in Pseudoscalar Meson Photoproduction
The number and type of measurements needed to ascertain the amplitudes for pseudoscalar meson photoproduction are analyzed in this paper. It is found that 8 carefully selected measurements can determine the four transversity amplitudes without discrete ambiguities. That number of measurements is one less than previously believed. We approach this problem in two distinct ways: (1) solving for th...
متن کاملTransversity in Exclusive and Inclusive Processes
Both meson photoproduction and semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering can potentially probe transversity properties of the nucleon. We explore how that potential can be realized dynamically. The role of rescattering in both exclusive and inclusive meson production as a source for single spin asymmetries is examined. Using a dynamical model, we evaluate the spin independent cos2φ asymmetry ass...
متن کاملφ-meson photoproduction from nuclei
We study coherent and incoherent φ-meson photoproduction from nuclei. The available data are analyzed in terms of single and coupled channel photoproduction. It is found that the data on coherent photoproduction can be well reproduced within a single channel optical model and show only little room for ω− φ mixing. These data indicate a normal distortion of the φ-meson in nuclei, which is compat...
متن کاملCoherent ω photoproduction from nuclei and ω properties in nuclear matter
Coherent ω photoproduction from nuclei and ω properties in nuclear matter. Abstract. The coherent ω-meson photoproduction from nuclei is proposed as a phenomenological method to evaluate the momentum dependence of ω-meson mass shift and width in nuclear matter. We analyze available data on un-separated coherent and incoherent ω-meson photoproduction from nuclei and extract the imaginary part of...
متن کاملFinal State Interactions in Ω Photoproduction near Threshold Yongseok Oh
Vector meson photoproduction and electroproduction have been suggested as a tool to find or confirm the nucleon resonances. In order to extract more reliable informations on the nucleon resonances, understanding the non-resonant background is indispensable. We consider final state interactions in ω photoproduction as a background production mechanism. For the intermediate states, we consider nu...
