Magnetic moments of baryons in higher symmetry schemes including charm

Relations among the magnetic moments of charmed and uncharmed baryons are derived in the framework of SU(4) and SU(8) symmetries. The SU(3) resultμ (Σ ^o)=−μ(Λ) is not present in SU(4), but is obtained in SU(8). Higher order effects are further considered to improve the situation.     

Magnetic moments of baryons in broken SU(4)

Assuming that the anomalous magnetic moment interaction has the formaT ₁ ¹ +bT ₂ ² +cT ₄ ⁴ +sT _α ^α in SU(4), which may arise due to symmetry breaking or some other dynamical effects, we have obtained the magnetic moments and the transition moments of the ordinary and charmed baryons.     

Magnetic moments of octet baryons in a chiral potential model

Incorporating the lowest-order pionic correction, the magnetic moments of the nucleon octet have been calculated in a chiral potential model. The potential, representing phenomenologically the nonperturbative gluon interactions including gluon self-couplings, is chosen with equally mixed scalar and vector parts in a power-law form. The results are in reasonable agreement with experiment.     

Magnetic moments of decuplet baryons in an independent particle potential model

Magnetic moments of decuplet baryons have been calculated in a relativistic independent quark model with a phenomenological potential in equally mixed scalar-vector harmonic form. Such a model has been successful in describing wide ranging hadronic phenomena in mesonic and baryonic sectors. Using the solutions of the constituent quark orbitals with the model parameters taken from its earlier applications, the magnetic moments of decuplet baryons Δ⁺⁺ and Ω⁻ have been obtained which are in good agreement with the available experimental data. However, the agreement is found to be much better when the magnetic moment ratios such as μ_δ++/μ _p and μ_Ω-/μ_Λ are considered. Model predictions for the magnetic moments of other decuplet baryons together with the charge radii have also been calculated which may be verified in future experiments.

Fully conjugated push–pull dendrons with high dipole moments in excited state; synthesis and theoretical rationalization

Novel fully conjugated push–pull dendrons were synthesized by a divergent approach to evaluate the performance of non‐conventional architectures like dendritic one in charge separation processes associated with photovoltaic events. The dipole moments in excited state were estimated by the solvatochromic method, to be related to the charge separation efficiency. A 1:2 ratio of donor–acceptor groups (methoxy and nitro groups respectively) promotes the largest dipole moment in both ground and excited state (up to 17 D), due to the efficient electron density transfer over the entire molecule, through the π‐electron system. The synthesized dendrons induce charge transfer on excitation as follows from UV–vis absorption–emission analysis and theoretical calculations. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Magnetic moments of the strange baryons in the bag model

We break SU(3) symmetry in the bag model by giving the singlet quark a mass m. The magnetic moment ratios of the strange baryons are calculated and compared with exact SU(6) predictions and with experiment.     

Strange magnetic moments of octet baryons under SU (3) breaking

Magnetic moments of octet baryons are parameterized to all orders of the flavor SU(3) breaking with the irreducible tensor technique in order to extract the contribution of each flavor quark to the magnetic moments of the octet baryons. The not-yet measured magnetic moment of ∑⁰ is predicted to be 0.649μ_N. Our parameterized forms for the magnetic moments are explicitly flavor-dependent, and hence each flavor component of the magnetic moments can be evaluated directly via the flavor projection operator. It is found that the strange magnetic moment of the nucleon is suppressed due to the small isoscalar anomalous magnetic moment of the nucleon. In particular, the strange magnetic form factor of the nucleon turns out to be positive, G_N^s(0)=0.428μ_N, which is consistent with recent data.     

Magnetic dipole moments of collective quadrupole excited states

Magnetic dipole moments for low-lying collective quadrupole excitations are studied in heavy and medium-heavy nuclei within the framework of the Interacting Boson Model (IBM-2). In the present study, we concentrate mainly on the fully symmetric representations of the U(6) group and their magnetic dipole moments. We shortly discuss the lowest non-symmetric 1⁺ level. Comparison with other collective model calculations of g_R and microscopic studies as well as with experimental data is performed.The authors are most grateful to A.E.L.Dieperink and coworkers for the generous help and permission to quote largely from their recent results on magnetic dipole moments in nuclei.They are also indebted to A.Richter,O.Scholten and Iachello for many stimulating discussions.

Electric dipole moments of lithium atoms in Rydberg states

Recently, the diverse properties of Rydberg atoms, which probably arise from its large electric dipole moment(EDM),have been explored. In this paper, we report electric dipole moments along with Stark energies and charge densities of lithium Rydberg states in the presence of electric fields, calculated by matrix diagonalization. Huge electric dipole moments are discovered. In order to check the validity of the EDMs, we also use these electric dipole moments to calculate the Stark energies by numerical integration. The results agree with those calculated by matrix diagonalization.     

Magnetic moments of negative parity baryons from the effective Hamiltonian approach to QCD

The magnetic moments of the S ₁₁(1535) and S ₁₁(1650) baryons are studied in the framework of the relativistic three-quark Hamiltonian derived in the Field Correlation Method. The baryon magnetic moments are expressed via the average current quark energies which are defined by the fundamental QCD parameters: the string tension σ, the quark masses, and the strong coupling constant α _s . The resulting magnetic moments for the J ^P = 1/2^? nucleons are compared both to model calculations and to those from lattice QCD.     

Calculations of molecular multipole electric moments of a series of exo-insaturated four-membered heterocycles,Y = CCH2CH2X

The influence of ring puckering angle on the multipole moments of sixteen four-membered heterocycles (1-16) was theoretically estimated using MP2 and different DFTs in combination with the 6-31+G(d,p) basis set. To obtain an accurate evaluation, CCSD/cc-pVDZ level and, the MP2 and PBE1PBE methods in combination with the aug-cc-pVDZ and aug-cc-pVTZ basis sets were performed on the planar geometries of 1-16. In general, the DFT and MP2 approaches provided an identical dependence of the electrical properties with the puckering angle for 1-16. Quantitatively, the quality of the level of theory and basis sets affects significant the predictions of the multipole moments, in particular for the heterocycles containing C=O and C=S bonds. Convergence basis sets within the MP2 and PBE1PBE approximations are reached in the dipole moment calculations when the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set is used, while the quadrupole and octupole moment computations require a larger basis set than aug-cc-pVTZ. On the other hand, the multipole moments showed a strong dependence with the molecular geometry and the nature of the carbon-heteroatom bonds. Specifically, the C-X bond determines the behavior of the μ(?), θ(?) and ?(?) functions, while the C=Y bond plays an important role in the magnitude of the studied properties.     

CASPT2 and CCSD(T) calculations of dipole moments and polarizabilities of acetone in excited states

The acetone molecule is investigated in its ground state and valence ^1,3n-π*, ^1,3π-π*, and ^1,3σ-π* excited states and Rydberg ^1,3n-3s, ^1,3π-3?, ^1,3n-3p_y and ^1,3π-3p_y states using the CASSCF, CASPT2, and CCSD(T) methods. Equilibrium geometries of excited states are obtained and their changes with respect to the ground state are discussed. For most excited states the C_2v symmetry of the ground state is lowered to the C_s symmetry. A series of valence vertical and adiabatic excitation energies is presented along with excitation energies for Rydberg states. The main body of the paper contains Finite-Field Perturbation Theory (FFPT) calculations of electric properties of the vertically as well as geometry relaxed excited states. Dipole moments of valence excited states decrease significantly upon excitation, being about one half of the ground state dipole moment. Polarizabilities usually change upon excitation much less (increase by about 30%) but hyperpolarizabilities are enhanced up to one or two orders of magnitude. The orientation of the dipole moment is reversed in some vertically excited Rydberg states. Properties of the ground and excited states are discussed considering alterations of the electronic structure and shifts in the geometry.
