Investigation of kaonic atom optical potential by the high precision data of kaonic $^3$He and $^4$He atoms

We theoretically investigate kaonic atom states based on the latest high precision data of the $2p$ states of the kaonic atoms in $^3$He and $^4$He (J-PARC E62). We consider the phenomenological form for the optical potential proportional to the nuclear density distributions and determine the potential parameters by the latest data. We find two sets of potential parameters for each of $K^--^3$He and $K^--^4$He that reproduce the data. We then extract the potential parameters consistent with the data of $^3$He and $^4$He atoms simultaneously. Using the potential, we investigate the structure of the kaonic atoms and kaonic nuclei for various nuclei up to Sn. We also report the optical potential parameters suited for the global description of the atomic data, the possible strong isospin dependence of the potential, and the different strength of the data of $K^--^3$He and $K^--^4$He in the restrictions on the potential parameters. In addition, we find that the study of the $1s$ states of the kaonic helium atom is very interesting as a next step, and the determination of the orbital angular momenta of the kaonic nuclear states is helpful for the unified understandings of the atomic and nuclear bound states of kaon because of the mutual influence between the atomic and the nuclear states of kaon with the same orbital angular momentum.

Excitation spectra of heavy baryons in a quark-diquark model with relativistic corrections

The excitation spectra of Λ_c and Λ_b baryons are investigated by using a quark-diquark model in which a single-heavy baryon is treated as the bound state of a heavy quark and a scalar diquark. We take two types of relativistic corrections into account for the quark-diquark potential. In the first type, we consider the one-gluon exchange between the heavy quark and one of the light quarks in the diquark. In the second, we consider the one-gluon exchange between a scalar particle and a heavy quark. We find that there is a large difference between two types of corrections due to different treatment of the internal color structure of the diquark. The relativistic corrections are important for the solution to the string tension puzzle, particularly, the Darwin term makes a large contribution.

Missing-mass spectroscopy of the ${}^{12}{\rm C}(p,d)$ reaction near the $η^\prime$-meson production threshold

Excitation-energy spectra of $^{11}$C nuclei near the $η^\prime$-meson production threshold have been measured by missing-mass spectroscopy using the $^{12}$C($p$,$d$) reaction. A carbon target has been irradiated with a 2.5 GeV proton beam supplied by the synchrotron SIS-18 at GSI to produce $η^\prime$ meson bound states in $^{11}$C nuclei. Deuterons emitted at $0^\circ$ in the reaction have been momentum-analyzed by the fragment separator (FRS) used as a high-resolution spectrometer. No distinct structure due to the formation of $η^\prime$-mesic states is observed although a high statistical sensitivity is achieved in the experimental spectra. Upper limits on the formation cross sections of $η^\prime$-mesic states are determined, and thereby a constraint imposed on the $η^\prime$-nucleus interaction is discussed.

$η$-nucleus interaction from the $d+d$ reaction around the $η$ production threshold

The $η$ mesic nucleus is considered to be one of the interesting exotic many body systems and has been studied since 1980's theoretically and experimentally. Recently, the formation of the $η$ mesic nucleus in the fusion reactions of the light nuclei such as $d + d \rightarrow (η+ α) \rightarrow X$ has been proposed and the experiments have been performed by WASA-at-COSY. We develop a theoretical model to evaluate the formation rate of the $η$ mesic nucleus in the fusion reactions and show the calculated results. We find that the $η$ bound states could be observed in the reactions in cases with the strong attractive and small absorptive $η$-nucleus interactions. We compare our results with existing data of the $d + d \rightarrow η+ α$ and the $d + d \rightarrow {^3 \rm He} + N + π$ reactions. We find that the analyses by our theoretical model with the existing data can provide new information on the $η$-nucleus interaction.

Measurement of excitation spectra in the ${}^{12}$C$(p,d)$ reaction near the $η'$ emission threshold

Excitation spectra of $^{11}$C were measured in the $^{12}$C$(p,d)$ reaction near the $η'$ emission threshold. A proton beam extracted from the synchrotron SIS-18 at GSI with an incident energy of 2.5 GeV impinged on a carbon target. The momenta of deuterons emitted at 0 degrees were precisely measured with the fragment separator FRS operated as a spectrometer. In contrast to theoretical predictions on the possible existence of deeply bound $η'$ mesic states in carbon nuclei, no distinct structures were observed associated with the formation of bound states. The spectra were analyzed to set stringent constraints on the formation cross section and on the hitherto barely-known $η'$-nucleus interaction.

Spectroscopy of $η'$-nucleus bound states at GSI and FAIR --- very preliminary results and future prospects ---

The possible existence of η'-nucleus bound states has been put forward through theoretical and experimental studies. It is strongly related to the η' mass at finite density, which is expected to be reduced because of the interplay between the $U_A(1)$ anomaly and partial restoration of chiral symmetry. The investigation of the C(p,d) reaction at GSI and FAIR, as well as an overview of the experimental program at GSI and future plans at FAIR are discussed.

Search for η'(958)-nucleus bound states by (p,d) reaction at GSI and FAIR

The mass of the η' meson is theoretically expected to be reduced at finite density, which indicates the existence of η'-nucleus bound states. To investigate these states, we perform missing-mass spectroscopy for the (p, d) reaction near the η' production threshold. The overview of the experimental situation is given and the current status is discussed.

Lambda (1405) photoproduction based on chiral unitary model

Recent CLAS data for the pi Sigma invariant mass distributions (line-shapes) in the gamma p -> K^+ pi Sigma reaction are theoretically investigated. The line-shapes have peaks associated with the Lambda(1405) excitation. Our model consists of gauge invariant photo-production mechanisms, and the chiral unitary model that gives the rescattering amplitudes where Lambda(1405) is contained. It is found that, while the pi Sigma line-shape data in the Lambda(1405) region are successfully reproduced by our model for all the charge states, the production mechanism is not so simple that we need to introduce parameters associated with short-range dynamics to fit the data. Our detailed analysis suggests that the nonresonant background contribution is not negligible, and its sizable effect shifts the Lambda(1405) peak position by several MeV. We also analyze the data using a Breit-Wigner amplitudes instead of those from the chiral unitary model. We find that the fitted Breit-Wigner parameters are closer to the higher pole position for Lambda(1405) of the chiral unitary model. This work sets a starting point for a fuller analysis in which line-shape as well as K^+ angular distribution data are simultaneously analyzed for extracting Lambda(1405) pole(s).

Chiral condensate at finite density using chiral Ward identity

In order to study partial restoration of the chiral symmetry at finite density, we investigate the density corrections of the chiral condensate up to next-leading order of density expansion using the chiral Ward identity and an in-medium chiral perturbation theory. In our study, we assume that all the in-vacuum quantities for the pion, the nucleon and the pi N interaction are determined and focus on density expansion of the in-medium physical quantities. We perform diagrammatic analysis of the correlation functions which provide the in-medium chiral condensate. This density expansion scheme shows that medium effects to the chiral condensate beyond the linear density come from density corrections to the pi N sigma term as a result of the interactions between pion and nucleon in nuclear matter. We also discuss that higher density contributions beyond order of rho^2 cannot be fixed only by the in-vacuum pi N dynamics but we need NN two-body dynamics in vacuum to fix divergence appearing in the calculation of the rho^2 dependence of the chiral condensate with the pi N dynamics.

Interpreting the peak structures around 1800 MeV in the BES data on $J/Ψ\to ϕπ^+ π^-$, $J/Ψ\to γωϕ$

In this talk we present an interpretation for the experimental data available on two different processes, namely, $J/Ψ\to ϕπ^+ π^-$, $J/Ψ\to γωϕ$, which seem to indicate existence of two new resonances with the same quantum numbers ($J^{πc}=0^{++}, I = 0$) and very similar mass (~1800 MeV) but with very different decay properties. However, our studies show that the peak structure found in the $ωϕ$ invariant mass, in $J/Ψ\to γωϕ$, is a manifestation of the well known $f_0(1710)$ while the cross section enhancement found in $J/Ψ\to ϕπ^+ π^-$ is indeed a new $f_0$ resonance with mass near 1800 MeV. We present an explanation for the different decay properties of these two scalar resonances.

Three-body hadron systems with strangeness

Recently, many efforts are being put in studying three-hadron systems made of mesons and baryons and interesting results are being found. In this talk, I summarize the main features of the formalism used to study such three hadron systems with strangeness $S=-1,0$ within a framework built on the basis of unitary chiral theories and solution of the Faddeev equations. In particular, I present the results obtained for the $π\bar{K}N$, $K\bar{K}N$ and $KK\bar{K}$ systems and their respective coupled channels. In the first case, we find four $Σ$'s and two $Λ$'s with spin-parity $J^P=1/2^+$, in the 1500-1800 MeV region, as two meson-one baryon s-wave resonances. In the second case, a $1/2^+$ $N^*$ around 1900 MeV is found. For the last one a kaon close to 1420 MeV is formed, which can be identified with K(1460).

Study of the $\bar K N$ system and coupled channels in a finite volume

We investigate the $\bar KN$ and coupled channels system in a finite volume and study the properties of the $Λ(1405)$ resonance. We calculate the energy levels in a finite volume and solve the inverse problem of determining the resonance position in the infinite volume. We devise the best strategy of analysis to obtain the two poles of the $Λ(1405)$ in the infinite volume case, with sufficient precision to distinguish them.

Exotic hadrons and hadron-hadron interactions in heavy ion collisions

We discuss the exotic hadron structure and hadron-hadron interactions in view of heavy ion collisions. First, we demonstrate that a hadronic molecule with a large spatial size would be produced more abundantly in the coalescence model compared with the statistical model result. Secondly, we constrain the Lambda-Lambda interaction by using the recently measured Lambda-Lambda correlation data. We find that the RHIC-STAR data favor the Lambda-Lambda scattering parameters in the range 1/a_0 <= -0.8 fm^{-1} and r_{eff} >= 3 fm.

Production of hyperon resonances induced by kaon on a deuteron target

The $K^- d \to πYN$reaction is theoretically studied so as to investigate the $K^{-}$-induced production of the hyperon resonances $Σ(1385)$ and $Λ(1405)$. For this purpose we take into account the p-wave amplitudes for the meson-baryon two-body scatterings as well as the s-wave amplitudes. Due to the fact that the hyperon resonances are selectively produced from the $\bar{K} N$ channel in this reaction, the $Λ(1405)$ peak appears at 1420 MeV, which implies that $Λ(1405)$ and $Σ(1385)$ could be separately seen in the missing mass spectrum of the emitted nucleon in the $K^{-} d \to n X$ reaction. The $πY$ invariant mass spectrum in this study is consistent with experimental data both for $Σ(1385)$ and $Λ(1405)$. The pion exchange contributions are also included and are found to give smooth background without distorting the peak structure of the hyperon resonances.

Nuclear density probed by Kaon-Nucleus systems and Kaon-Nucleus interaction

Effective nuclear densities probed by kaon- and anti-kaon-nucleus systems are studied theoretically both for bound and low energy scattering states. As for the anti-kaon bound states, we investigate kaonic atoms. We find that the effective density depends on the atomic states significantly and we have the possibility to obtain the anti-kaon properties at various nuclear densities by observing the several kaonic atom states. We also find the energy dependence of the probed density by kaon and anti-kaon scattering states. We find that the study of the effective nuclear density will help to find the proper systems to investigate the meson properties at various nuclear densities.

Strategy to find the two $Λ(1405)$ states from lattice QCD simulations

Theoretical studies within the chiral unitary approach, and recent experiments, have provided evidence of the existence of two isoscalar states in the region of the $Λ(1405)$. In this paper we use the same chiral approach to generate energy levels in a finite box. In a second step, assuming that these energies correspond to lattice QCD results, we devise the best strategy of analysis to obtain the two states in the infinite volume case, with sufficient precision to distinguish them. We find out that using energy levels obtained with asymmetric boxes and/or with a moving frame, with reasonable errors in the energies, one has a successful scheme to get the two $Λ(1405)$ poles.

Formation of eta-prime(958)-mesic nuclei by (p,d) reaction

We calculate theoretically the formation spectra of eta'(958)-nucleus systems in the (p,d) reaction for the investigation of the in-medium modification of the eta' mass. We show the comprehensive numerical calculations based on a simple form of the eta' optical potential in nuclei with various potential depths. We conclude that one finds an evidence of possible attractive interaction between eta' and nucleus as peak structure appearing around the eta' threshold in light nuclei such as 11C when the attractive potential is stronger than 100 MeV and the absorption width is of order of 40 MeV or less. Spectroscopy of the (p,d) reaction is expected to be performed experimentally at existing facilities, such as GSI. We also estimate the contributions from the omega and phi mesons, which have masses close to the eta' meson, concluding that the observation of the peak structure of the eta'-mesic nuclei is not disturbed although their contributions may not be small.
