Symplectic Yang–Mills theory,Ricci tensor,and connections

A Yang–Mills theory in a purely symplectic framework is developed. The corresponding Euler–Lagrange equations are derived and first integrals are given. We relate the results to the work of Bourgeois and Cahen on preferred symplectic connections.

The π N → e +e−N reaction close to the vector-meson production threshold

The π^? p→e ⁺ e ^? n and π⁺ n→e ⁺ e ^? p reaction cross sections are calculated below and in the vicinity of the vector-meson (?⁰,ω) production threshold. These processes are largely responsible for the emission of e ⁺e^? pairs in pion-nucleus reactions and contribute to the dilepton spectra observed in relativistic heavy ion collisions. They are dominated by the decay of low-lying baryon resonances into vector-meson-nucleon channels. The vector mesons materialize subsequently into e ⁺ e^? pairs. Using πN→?⁰ N and πN→ωN, amplitudes calculated in the center of mass energy interval 1.4 < √s<1.8 GeV, we compute the π^? p→e ⁺ e ^? n and π⁺ n→e ⁺ e ^? p reaction cross sections in these kinematics. Below the vector-meson production threshold, the π⁰?ω interference in the e ⁺ e^? channel appears largely destructive for the π^? p→e ⁺ e ^? n cross section and constructive for the π⁺ n→e ⁺ e ^? p cross section. The pion beam and the HADES detector at GSI offer a unique possibility to measure these effects. Such data would provide strong constraints on the coupling of vector-meson-nucleon channels to low-lying baryon resonances.

Inclusive\bar K^{0*} (892) andK 0*(892) production on silicon by 200 GeVK − andπ −

The production of the neutralK ^? (892) resonances by 200 GeVK ^? andπ ^? has been studied over the kinematic range 0.0<x _f<1.0 andp _t ² <5.0 GeV². Longitudinal and transverse momentum distributions are presented. In addition the decay angular distributions inK ^? fragmentation to \(\bar K^{0*} \) have been investigated.
