Non-extensivity of hadronic systems

The predictions from a non-extensive self-consistent theory recently proposed are investigated. Transverse momentum ($p_T$) distribution for several hadrons obtained in $p+p$ collisions are analyzed to verify if there are evidence for a limiting effective temperature and a limiting entropic factor. In addition, the hadron-mass spectrum proposed in that theory is confronted with available data. It turns out that all $p_T$-distributions and the mass spectrum obtained in the theory are in good agreement with experiment with constant effective temperature and constant entropic factor. The results confirm that the non-extensive statistics plays an important role in the description of the termodynamics of hadronic systems, and also that the self-consistent principle holds for energies as high as those achieved in the LHC. A discussion on the best $p_T$-distirbution formula for fitting experimental data is presented.

Systematic analysis of transverse momentum distribution and non-extensive thermodynamics theory

A systematic analysis of transverse momentum distribution of hadrons produced in ultra-relativistic $p+p$ and $A+A$ collisions is presented. We investigate the effective temperature and the entropic parameter from the non-extensive thermodynamic theory of strong interaction. We conclude that the existence of a limiting effective temperature and of a limiting entropic parameter is in accordance with experimental data.

Nonmesonic Hyperon Weak Decay Spectra in $^{12}_Λ$C}

We study the nonmesonic weak decay (NMWD) $ΛN \to nN$ of the ${}^{12}_Λ C$ hypernucleus induced by the nucleon $N=n,p$ with transition rate $Γ_N$. The nuclear process is described by the interplay of two models; one describing the NMWD of hyperon $Λ$ in the nuclear environment, and the other taking into account the Final State Interaction (FSI) of the two outgoing nucleons with the residual nucleus. The first one is done in the framework of the Independent-Particle Shell-Model (IPSM), with the decay dynamics represented by the exchange of $π+ η+ K+ρ+ω+K^*$ mesons with usual parametrization. For the second one is used a time dependent multicollisional intranuclear cascade schema (implemented in the CRISP code - Collaboration Rio-São Paulo). The results obtained for inclusive and exclusive kinetic energy spectra, and the angular correlation are compared with recent data from KEK and FINUDA experiments. The calculated ratio $(Γ_n / Γ_p)^{\partial{\tiny FSI}}$, between the numbers of emitted back-to-back $nn$ and $np$ pairs, is in good agreement with the experimental data.

Deformation effects in low-momentum distributions of heavy nuclei

Momentum distributions (MD) of deep hole proton states in $^{238}$U are studied paying particular attention to the influence of deformation. Two essentially different mean-field models, Woods-Saxon (WS) and Skyrme-Hartree-Fock with the SkM$^*$ force, are used. Noticeable deviations between the WS and SkM$^*$ results are found. They are mainly due to the difference in effective nucleon mass. In particular, SkM$^*$ gives much weaker deformation effects at low momenta than WS. It is shown that, in spite of the deformation mixing, MD at low momenta can serve for identification of $K^π=1/2^+$ hole states originating from $s_{1/2}$ spherical sub-shells. Moreover, following the WS calculations, the deformation results in additional $K^π=1/2^+$ states with strong $l=0$ contributions. A possibility to probe such states in knock-out experiments is discussed.

Quasi Free 238U (e,e'f)-Cross Section in Macroscopic-Microscopic Approach

We present the result of a theoretical study of inclusive quasi free electrofission of $^{238}$U. The off-shell $ $cross sections for the quasi free reaction stage have been calculated within the Plane Wave Impulse Approximation (PWIA), using a Macroscopic -Microscopic description of the proton and neutron single particle momentum distributions. Electron wave function distortion corrections were included using the effective momentum approximation, and the Final State Interaction (FSI) effects were calculated using an optical potential. The fissility for the proton single hole excited states of the residual nucleus $^{237}$Pa was calculated both without and with contributions of the pre-equilibrium emission of the particles. The fissility for $^{237,238}U$ residual nuclei was calculated within the compound nucleus model. The $(e,e^{\prime}f)-$cross sections thus obtained were compared with available experimental data.

Quasi free electro fission of 238U

We present the result of a theoretical study of the quasi free electrofission of $^{238}$U. The exclusive differential cross sections for the quasi free scattering reaction stage have been calculated in PWIA, using a Macroscopic-Microscopic approach for the description of the proton bound states. The nuclear shape was parametrized in terms of cassinian ovaloids. The equilibrium deformation parameters have been calculated by minimizing the total nuclear energy. In the calculation the axially deformed Woods-Saxon single particle potential was used. The obtained single particle momentum distributions were averaged over the nuclear symmetry axis direction. The occupation numbers were calculated in the BCS approach. The fissility for the single hole excited states of the residual nucleus $^{237}$% Pa was calculated on the statistical theory grounds both without taking into account the pre-equilibrium emission of the particle, and with preequilibrium emission in the framework of the exciton model.

Photoabsorption on nuclei in the shadowing threshold region

The energy and nuclear mass dependences of the total hadronic cross section in the energy range 0.5-2.6 GeV have been measured at Bonn using the SAPHIR tagged photon beam. The measurement, performed on C, Al, Cu, Sn and Pb, provides the first photoabsorption data in the region 1.2-1.7 GeV. The results show a significant reduction of the photoabsorption strength on the bound nucleon compared to the free nucleon case in the whole energy region. Above 1.2 GeV this reduction decreases with the nuclear density and can be interpreted as a signature of a low energy onset of the shadowing effect.

Determination of the forward Compton scattering amplitudes for C and Pb

The forward Compton scattering amplitude for carbon and lead have been calculated from total photoabsorption cross section data by using dispersion relations. The results show a large difference between the scattering amplitudes for nuclei and the free nucleon, above the $Δ$ region. The forward Compton scattering cross sections have been calculated and compared with the available data. The Weise sum rule is discussed together with the prediction of a recent theoretical model.
