Three-particle fields as a method of description of baryons in the scattering processes

Abstract

In this paper we propose a model within which the keeping of quarks inside a proton and the interaction of these quarks with quarks of another hadron can be described simultaneously. The model of a three-particle bispinor field is used for this purpose. Such a field, in comparison with the usual one-particle field, is considered not on Minkowski space, but on a subset of the tensor product of three Minkowski spaces, which is characterized by the equality of time coordinates of three events (subset of simultaneity). Such a subset cannot be distinguished by the Lorentz invariant method. But due to the multiparticle field transformation law in the transition from one inertial system to another one, the dynamic equations for a three-particle field are consistent with the principle of relativity. The interaction between quarks is introduced by requiring a local SUc(3) invariance. But in the paper a more general way to achieve this invariance than the replacement in Lagrangian of ordinary derivatives by covariance is proposed. The applied procedure leads to a two-index tensor of gauge field, both for Lorentz and internal indices. The connection of this field with the bound states of gluons - glueballs is discussed. It is shown that this glueball field can be represented as the sum of two terms: the classical field, which plays the role of the potential energy of quark interaction in the proton, and the field corresponding to quantum fluctuations around the classical field and describes the quark interaction in proton with other hadrons. A dynamic equation is obtained for the field that determines the potential energy of quark interaction. It is shown that this equation has solutions that correspond to the confinement of quarks.

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.
