چکیده

Strongly attractive color forces in the flavor singlet channel may lead to a stable H dibaryon. Here we show that an H or other compact, flavor singlet hadron is unlikely to bind to nuclei, so that bounds on exotic isotopes do not exclude their stability. Remarkably, a stable H appears to evade other experimental constraints as well, when account is taken of its expected compact spatial wavefunction.

Pions in isospin asymmetric nuclei

Using a pair of the lightest mirror nuclei, 3 He and 3 H, we study the effect of the medium modification of pion fields on the flavor non-singlet structure function. The change of the pion fields leads to an enhancement of the flavor asymmetry of the antiquark distributions in a nucleus.

Flavor Symmetry and Quark Model of Hadrons

As discussed in the previous Chapter, when the universe cools below TC , quarks and gluons are clustered to form color-singlet hadrons. When the temperature gets sufficiently low, the anti-baryon density becomes negligible, and the excess baryon number (or baryon chemical potential) decides the density of residual baryons. Because the proton and neutrons (together called nucleons) are the lowes...

Possible Hadronic Molecule Λ(1405) and Thermal Glueballs in SU(3) Lattice QCD

We aim to construct quark hadron physics based on QCD. First, using lattice QCD, we study mass spectra of positive-parity and negative-parity baryons in the octet, the decuplet and the singlet representations of the SU(3) flavor. In particular, we consider the lightest negative-parity baryon, the Λ(1405), which can be an exotic hadron as theNK̄ molecular state or the flavor-singlet three-quark s...

Non - singlet structure function of the 3 He - 3 H system and divergence of the Gottfried integral

We study shadowing and antishadowing corrections to the flavor nonsinglet structure function F 3He 2 − F 3H 2 and show that the difference between the one-particle density distributions of 3He and 3H plays an important role at very small x. We find that the flavor non-singlet structure function in these mirror nuclei is enhanced at small x by nuclear shadowing, which increases the nuclear Gottf...

Parton evolution in the fixed flavor factorization scheme

It is argued that while the scale dependence of the parton distributions in the fixed flavor factorization scheme is governed by three active flavors, the scale dependence of the running coupling should nevertheless be better governed by a variable number of active flavors. The fixed flavor factorization schme (FFS) is characterized by considering the heavy quarks (h = c, b, t) always as extern...
