General survey of polarization observables in deuteron electrodisintegration

Polarization observables in inclusive and exclusive electrodisintegration of the deuteron using a polarized beam and an oriented target are systematically surveyed using the standard nonrelativistic framework of nuclear theory but with leading-order relativistic contributions included. The structure functions and the asymmetries corresponding to the various nucleon polarization components are studied in a variety of kinematic regions with respect to their sensitivity to realistic NN-potential models, to subnuclear degrees of freedom in terms of meson exchange currents, isobar configurations and to relativistic effects in different kinematical regions, serving as a benchmark for a test of present standard nuclear theory with effective degrees of freedom.     

General multipole expansion of polarization observables in deuteron electrodisintegration

Formal expressions are derived for the multipole expansion of the structure functions of a general polarization observable of exclusive electrodisintegration of the deuteron using a longitudinally polarized beam and/or an oriented target. This allows one to exhibit explicitly the angular dependence of the structure functions by expanding them in terms of the small rotation matrices d ^j _m'm(θ), whose coefficients are given in terms of the electromagnetic multipole matrix elements. Furthermore, explicit expressions for the coefficients of the angular distributions of the differential cross-section including multipoles up to L _max = 3 are listed in tabular form.

Incoherent pion photoproduction on the deuteron including polarization effects

Incoherent pion photoproduction on the deuteron including polarization effects is studied in the energy region from π-threshold up to the Δ(1232)-resonance with inclusion of all leading πNN effects. For the elementary pion photoproduction operator, a realistic effective Lagrangian approach is used which displays chiral symmetry, gauge invariance, and crossing symmetry, as well as a consistent treatment of the spin-3/2 interaction. The interactions in the final two-body subsystems are taken in separable form. Effects of final state interaction are investigated and their role in unpolarized and polarization observables are found to be significant. The extracted cross sections and spin asymmetries are compared with available experimental data and predictions of other works, and a satisfactory agreement is obtained. In addition, the sensitivity of results to the elementary N(γ, π)N operator is investigated. Considerable dependence of the d(γ, π)NN results on the elementary amplitude is found. This indicates that it can serve as a filter for different elementary operators.     

Fast deuteron production in proton-nucleus interactions

Deuteron formation in proton-nucleus reactions due to the coalescence mechanism with final-state interaction between nucleons is discussed in order to establish the kinematical region of the validity of this approach. The experimental data on fast deuteron production in proton-nucleus collisions at bombarding energies above 3 GeV are analyzed. It is shown that most experimental results were obtained for deuteron momenta below the critical limit of the coalescence model. It is discussed to which extent further experimental studies could help to identify contributions from the coalescence mechanism and to get better understanding of the fast deuteron-production process.This article was processed by the author using the LATEX style filepljour2 from Springer-Verlag.

Manifestation of polarization effects in dusty plasma

This paper is devoted to a detailed analysis of polarization effects in dusty plasma (DP). They are shown to lead to a nonmonotone decay of the self-consistent potential near the macroparticle, which may result in the formation of regular structures in the DP.     

General formulae for polarization observables in two-body break-up of deuteron photodisintegration

The formal expressions of all possible polarization observables ind(,N)N with polarized photons and oriented deuterons are derived in terms of thet-matrix elements. Furthermore, using the multipole expansion of thet-matrix, all observables are expanded in terms of Legendre polynomials or associated functions, the coefficients of which are given as bilinear forms of the multipole moments and allow a model independent analysis of experimental data.Supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (SFB 201)     

An understanding of the properties of the dineutron and the deuteron in terms of quantum wave function interference

The recently reported evidence for the existence of an unstable state of the dineutron has raised again the issues associated with this particle and with the related deuteron. For the dineutron there is the question of why it has no stable ground state, while for the deuteron the magnetic and electric properties are unusual. In this Letter we show how it is possible to explain these effects in a simple way, using only considerations of interference between the wave functions of two spin 1/2 particles in the same energy state.     

Color transparency effects in electron deuteron interactions at intermediateQ 2

High momentum transfer electrodisintegration of polarized and unpolarized deuterium targets,d(e, ep)n is studied. We show that the importance of final state interactions FSI, occuring when a knocked out nucleon interacts with the other nucleon, depends strongly on the momentum of the spectator nucleon. In particular, these FSI occur when the essential contributions to the scattering amplitude arise from internucleon distances 1.5 fm. But the absorption of the high momentum ^* may produce a point like configuration, which evolves with time. In this case, the final state interactions probe the point like configuration at the early stage of its evolution. If the point like configuration is still small after propagating about 1.5 fm, the FSI are suppressed. The result is that significant color transparency effects, which can either enhance or suppress computed cross sections, are predicted to occur forQ ²4GeV². We suggest searching for color transparency phenomenon by examining ratios of experimentally measured quantities. Possible theoretical uncertainties of the calculations, including those due to the deuteron wave function and relativistic effects, are found to be small.This work was supported in part by the USA — Israel Binational Science Foundation Grant No. 9200126 and by the US Department of Energy under Contract Nos.

General formalism in collinear regime for pseudoscalar meson production in NN collisions

The spin structure of the matrix element for the pseudoscalar meson production processes in nucleon-nucleon collisions is established in the collinear kinematical regime in terms of 3 independent scalar amplitudes. This result is valid for any reaction mechanism and for any energy of the colliding and the produced particles. The complete experiment for the full reconstruction of all 3 complex amplitudes must contain two different classes of polarization experiments. The polarization transfer coefficients can be used to determine the moduli of all 3 amplitudes, whereas the spin correlation coefficients for + collisions are sensitive to the relative phases of different amplitudes.

Bessel beams: Effects of polarization

An approximation to a Bessel beam produced by tightly focusing linearly polarized light is known to produce a smaller central lobe than focusing plane polarized light. This is because the plane polarized wave gives a broad central lobe caused mainly by a parasitic longitudinal field component. It is known that this problem can be overcome by focusing radially polarized light. Here we demonstrate that other polarization distributions based on a linear combination of transverse electric (TE1) and transverse magnetic (TM1) fields can give a beam even narrower than for the radially polarized case. Special cases of this combination are identified, corresponding to the smallest width (TE1), and the maximum peak intensity compared with the side lobes (electric dipole polarization). Axially-symmetric forms can be generated by illumination with elliptically polarized light. A particular case is azimuthal polarization with a phase singularity, which is equivalent to TE1. For a semi-angular aperture of 60°, the TE1 case gives a central lobe width 9% narrower than for radially polarized illumination, while for plane polarized illumination it is 12% wider than the radially polarized case.

Relative orientation accuracy analysis of the polarizers in a polarization CCD camera

In order to study the relative orientation accuracy of the instrument polarizers in the polarization CCD camera, a fitted function of the instrument signal, cosinusoidally modulated all along the rotation of the test polarizer, is presented. The results of numerical computation show that the relative orientation of the three polarizers in the same spectral band can be within an accuracy of ±10′ when a specific instrument output signal function is given for the condition that the random noise signal is in the ranges 0-10 (with S/N≈20).     

Comparison of analyzing power and polarization in the reaction 3H(p,n)3He: (II). New polarization results below 4 MeV

The polarization P^y for the ³H(p, n)³He reaction was measured for energies between 2 and 4 MeV. Special care was given to minimizing the effects of background and to interpreting the experimental spectra. The new values for P^y are significantly higher than previous values, and comparison to the available data for the analyzing power A_y for the same reaction now shows that in this energy range P^y and A_y are equal within experimental uncertainties. This equality negates earlier conclusions that sizeable differences existed between these observables. In particular, our new results demonstrate that in this reaction the effects of charge symmetry breaking on differences between these observables must be small.     

Abnormal polarization enhancement effects of P(VDF-TrFE) films during fatigue process

The effects of alternating electric field on the fatigue behaviors of poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) copolymer films were investigated. The value of the remanent polarization (Pr) reached a maximum with the increase of cycle number of alternating electric filed, and then decreased as observed from the curve of polarization vs. switching cycles. It was found that the maximum point is associated with the frequency of alternating electric field. Dual effects, i.e., polarization enhancement and degradation, were supposed to coexist during the process of fatigue. A model considering the two effects was proposed to describe the fatigue behaviors, and the simulated data fit well with the experimental data.
