Effective Kaon Mass in Baryonic Matter and Kaon Condensation

The effective kaon mass in dense baryonic matter is calculated based on PCAC, current algebra and the Weinberg smoothness hypothesis. The off-shell behavior of the K-N scattering amplitudes is treated consistently with PCAC, and the effects of the subthreshold K-N resonances are also included. The effective kaon mass is found to depend crucially on the K-N sigma term. Since the current estimates of K-N Sigma term are very uncertain, we discuss various scenarios treating K-N Sigma term as an input parameter; for certain values of K-N Sigma a collective mode of a hyperon-particle-nucleon-hole state appears at high densities, possibly leading to kaon condensation.

On the Spectacular Large Asymmetry in $\pbarppipi$ and $\pbarpKK$ Reactions}

An illustrative analysis is presented to show the origin of the energy-independent maximal asymmetry observed for wide ranges of angles in the reactions $\pbarppipi$ and $\pbarpKK$. % The general nature of our simple relation between helicity -flip and -nonflip partial wave amplitudes enforces the notion that % these features of the asymmetry for these two annihilation reactions are likely to persist within the hadronic regime. % At higher energies these features of the asymmetry will probably be modified significantly, signaling the onset of perturbative QCD. % Our study supports the arguments that the final $\KbarK$ state originates from a more central reaction than the $\pipi$ final state.
