"Quark Confinement" and Evolution of Covariant Hadron-Classification Scheme

Abstract

The extension of Non-Relativistic-to-Covariant classification scheme seems to be an urgent problem in the Hadron Spectroscopy. Here are given the recent results of our research. 1) Brief history of our way of the extension on Kinematical Frameworks: from SU(2)_{sigma} $\otimes$ O(3)_{L} to U (4)_{DS,m} (Tensor-space of Dirac Spinor with the static unitary symm. SU(2)_{m}, which is new Mass-Reversal symm. reflecting the situation of Q.C.) $\otimes O(2)_{r\perp v}$ (2-dim. internal spatial-vector r vertical to Boost-velocity v, embedded in the O(3,1)_{Lorentz}). Also is brought in Cov. scheme the thus far Overlooked Chirality Symm. of QCD/Stand. Gauge Model. 2) Propertime tau-Quantum Mechanics for Conf. Q. System and Quantization of Comp. Hadron field is developed. The similar to conventional procedures are performed in Lorentz-Inv. Particle Frame (Galilean Inertial Frame with v=const) which becomes Lorentz-Cov. Observer F., when v=0. The one notable feature of the tau-Q.M. is concerned only future-development, inducing the Crossing Rule; the other also inducing Existence of the Chiral-Quark (JP=(1/2)-) in addition to Pauli-Quark (JP=(1/2)+), which is Origin of SU(2)_m-symm., leading to Existence of New-Exotics. 3) Evolved framework of hadron spectroscopy guided by tau-Q.M. is summarized: Especially, "Regge Trajectories", in qqbar meson system are given by $M^2$ vs. $\hat{N}(n,l)$; $M^2=M_{0}^2+N \Omega$ (N=2n+l), Intrinsic spin of Comp. Hadrons J=S, where Orbital l contributes only to N. 4) New Classif. scheme is applied to Phenomenology of Bottomonium System.As a result is shown Remarkable Fact, including a serious Problem in the N.R. scheme, concerned on Spin-Flip Mechanism of Heavy Quarks, seems to disappear in our scheme. This seems to suggest that the phenomenological knowledge,thus far obtained resorting on N.R.scheme, should be reexamined from the covariant one.

Axionic Wormholes in Metric-Affine Gravity

The axion is a promising candidate for solving the strong CP problem. To solve this problem, the global U(1) symmetry must be preserved to a high degree of accuracy. However, it is well known that global symmetries are explicitly violated by quantum gravity effects, giving rise to what is referred to as the axion quality problem. In this paper, we investigate axionic wormholes as a source of explicit U(1) violation in Metric-Affine Gravity. This framework allows for spacetime torsion and non-metricity, which accommodate additional curvature-like and topological terms, such as the Holst and Nieh--Yan terms, that are absent from the metric and Palatini formalisms. We show that non-minimal couplings to these terms modify the wormhole dynamics and enhance the Euclidean wormhole action, thereby alleviating the axion quality problem. We also find that the viable parameter space is enlarged when two of these couplings are simultaneously present. We further identify representative parameter regions where the alleviation of the axion quality problem is compatible with inflationary constraints.

Qubit-Qutrit Quantum Tomography of hadronic $\Lambda\phi$ and $\Lambda K^{\ast 0}$ systems

Quantum-information observables have emerged in recent years as new tools in nuclear and particle physics, from entanglement in top-quark pairs to spin correlations in $\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$ production. Extending these studies to unequal-spin hadronic final states poses a fundamental challenge: the $6\times6$ density matrix of a qubit-qutrit system contains 35 independent spin parameters, but the decays of $\Lambda V$ pairs, with $V=\phi$ or $K^{*0}$, provide access to only 23 due to the hidden vector polarization from the strong decay. In this Letter, we formulate a qubit-qutrit quantum tomography (QQQT) technique for these spin-$\tfrac{1}{2}\otimes1$ systems and establish exact criteria for entanglement certification from the \textit{incomplete} density matrix. Compared with the $\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$ system, QQQT of $\Lambda\phi$ and $\Lambda K^{*0}$ provides a new probe of nonperturbative QCD hadronization, enabling a direct comparison of the spin evolution of entangled quark pairs produced from the vacuum as they hadronize into a baryon or a vector meson.

Twist decomposition of exclusive heavy meson production cross sections

We study the twist decomposition of the total cross sections for exclusive heavy vector meson electroproduction and photoproduction in the $\gamma^\ast p$ processes, within the leading logarithmic $1/x$ BFKL formalism. The Mellin transforms of the impact factors of the vector meson are calculated. We show that the higher twist contributions are strongly suppressed in the low-$x$ kinematical regime. Possible enhancement of the higher twists effects for nuclei targets is discussed.
