Finite Quark Mass Effects in the Improved Ladder Bethe-Salpeter Amplitudes

We study the finite quark mass effects of the low-energy QCD using the improved ladder Schwinger-Dyson and Bethe-Salpeter equations which are derived in the manner consistent with the vector and axial-vector Ward-Takahashi identities. The non-perturbative mass-independent renormalization allows us to calculate the quark condensate for a non-zero quark mass. We explicitly show that the PCAC relation holds. The key ingredients are the Cornwall-Jackiw-Tomboulis effective action, the generalized Noether current and the introduction of the regularization function to the Lagrangian. The reasonable values of the pion mass, the pion decay constant and the quark condensate are obtained with a rather large $Λ_{QCD}$. The pion mass square and the pion decay constant are almost proportional to the current quark mass up to the strange quark mass region. It suggests that the chiral perturbation is applicable up to the strange quark mass region. We study the validity of the approximation often used in solving the Bethe-Salpeter equations too.

Longitudinal and Transverse Spin Responses in Relativistic Many Body Theory

Spin longitudinal and transverse response function are studied by means of the relativistic many-body theory. The spin response functions in the relativistic theory are largely reduced from those in the non-relativistic theory. The local density approximation with the eikonal approximation is applied to the the nuclear absorption in the $(\vec{p},\vec{n})$ reactions on C and Ca. We compare the calculated results with the recent experimental data.

Exact renormalization group equation in presence of rescaling anomaly

Wilson's approach to renormalization group is reanalyzed for supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Usual demonstration of exact renormalization group equation must be modified due to the presence of the so called Konishi anomaly under the rescaling of superfields. We carry out the explicit computation for N=1 SUSY Yang-Mills theory with the simpler, gauge invariant regularization method, recently proposed by Arkani-Hamed and Murayama. The result is that the Wilsonian action S_M consists of two terms, i.e. the non anomalous term, which obeys Polchinski's flow equation and Fujikawa-Konishi determinant contribution. This latter is responsible for Shifman-Vainshtein relation of exact beta-function.

Microscopic Structure of Rotational Damping

The damping of collective rotational motion is studied microscopically, making use of shell model calculations based on the cranked Nilsson deformed mean-field and on residual two-body interactions, and focusing on the shape of the gamma-gamma correlation spectra and on its systematic behavior. It is shown that the spectral shape is directly related to the damping width of collective rotation, \Gammarot, and to the spreading width of many-particle many-hole configurations, \Gammamu. The rotational damping width is affected by the shell structure, and is very sensitive to the position of the Fermi surface, besides mass number, spin and deformation. This produces a rich variety of features in the rotational damping phenomena.

Shell Effects on Rotational Damping in Superdeformed Nuclei

Damping of rotational motion in superdeformed Hg and Dy-region nuclei is studied by means of cranked shell model diagonalization. It is shown that a shell oscillation in single-particle alignments affects significantly properties of rotational damping. Onset properties of damping and damping width for Hg are quite different from those for Dy-region superdeformed nuclei.

Simple Photoelectric Absorption during Dipping in the ASCA Observation of XB1916-053

We report results of analysis of the ASCA observation of the Low Mass X-ray Binary dipping source XB1916-053 made on 1993, May 2nd. We have shown that the spectra can be well fitted by the same two-component model previously used to give good explanations of the very different dip sources X1755-338 and X1624-490, consisting of point-source blackbody emission from the neutron star plus extended Comptonised emission from the accretion disk corona. In XB1916-053, all levels of dipping can be fitted using kT_bb= 2.14+/-0.28 keV and power law photon index = 2.42 +/-0.21. Dipping is shown to be due to large increases of column density for the point-like blackbody, combined with the extended power law component being progressively covered by absorber until in the deepest parts of dips, the partial covering fraction approaches unity. This approach differs radically from the ``absorbed plus unabsorbed'' approach previously used in spectral modelling of XB1916-053 and similar sources, in which the normalisation of the unabsorbed component is allowed to decrease markedly in dipping, behavior generally attributed to the effects of electron scattering. Thus we have shown that spectral evolution in XB1916-053 can be explained simply in terms of photoelectric absorption without the need for substantial electron scattering. This explanation is supported by calculation of the relative importance of photoelectric absorption and electron scattering in the absorbing region which shows that little electron scattering is expected in the ASCA energy band.

Shell Model for Warm Rotating Nuclei

In order to provide a microscopic description of levels and E2 transitions in rapidly rotating nuclei with internal excitation energy up to a few MeV, use is made of a shell model which combines the cranked Nilsson mean-field and the residual surface delta two-body force. The damping of collective rotational motion is investigated in the case of a typical rare-earth nucleus, namely \Yb. It is found that rotational damping sets in at around 0.8 MeV above the yrast line, and the levels which form rotational band structures are thus limited. We predict at a given rotational frequency existence of about 30 rotational bands of various lengths, in overall agreement with the experimental findings. The onset of the rotational damping proceeds quite gradually as a function of the internal excitation energy. The transition region extends up to around 2 MeV above yrast and it is characterized by the presence of scars of discrete rotational bands which extend over few spin values and stand out among the damped transitions, and by a two-component profile in the $E_γ-E_γ$ correlation. The important role played by the high-multipole components of the two-body residual interaction is emphasized.

Nuclear G-Matrix Elements from Nonlocal Potentials

We study effects of nonlocality in the nuclear force on the G-matrix elements for finite nuclei. Nuclear G-matrix elements for $\O16$ are calculated in the harmonic oscillator basis from a nonlocal potential which models quark exchange effects between two nucleons. We employ a simple form of potential that gives the same phase shifts as a realistic local nucleon potential. The G-matrix elements calculated from the nonlocal potential show moderate increase in repulsion from those derived from the local potential.

Onset of Rotational Damping in Superdeformed Nuclei

We discuss damping of the collective rotational motion in $A\sim 150$ superdeformed nuclei by means of a shell model combining the cranked Nilsson mean-filed and the surface-delta two-body residual force. It is shown that, because of the shell structure associated with the superdeformed mean-field, onset energy of the rotational damping becomes $E_x \sim 2-3 $ MeV above yrast line, which is much higher than in normal deformed nuclei. The mechanism of the shell structure effect is investigated through detailed analysis of level densities in superdeformed nuclei. It is predicted the onset of damping varies in different supedeformed nuclei along with variation in the single-particle structure at the Fermi surface.

The Quantization of Anomalous Gauge Field Theory and BRST-invariant Models of Two Dimensional Quantum Gravity

We analyze the problems with the so called gauge invariant quantization of the anomalous gauge field theories originary due to Faddeev and Shatashvili (FS). Our analysis bring to a generalization of FS method which allows to construct a series of classically equivalent theories which are non equivalent at quantum level. We prove that these classical theories are all consistent with the BRST invariance of the original gauge symmetry with suitably augmented field content. As an example of such a scenario, we discuss the class of physically distinct models of two dimensional induced gravity which are a generalization of the David-Distler-Kawai model.

Study of the levels in $^{17}$C above the $^{16}$C + neutron threshold

The $β$-delayed neutron decay of $^{17}$B was studied using a radioactive ion beam. The neutron energies, measured via time-of-flight, give information on states in $^{17}$C above the $^{16}$C + neutron threshold. States in $^{17}$C were found at excitation energies of 2.25(2) MeV, 2.64(2) MeV and 3.82(5) MeV, and possibly at 1.18(1) MeV. These low lying states are of possible interest for nuclear physics as well as for astrophysics.

The Quantization of Anomalous Gauge Field Theory

We discuss the so called gauge invariant quantization of anomalous gauge field theory, originally due to Faddeev and Shatashvili. It is pointed out that the further non invariance of relevant path integral measures poses a problem when one tries to translate it to BRST formalism. The method by which we propose to get around of this problem introduces certain arbitrariness in the model. We speculate on the possibility of using such an arbitrariness to build series of non equivalent models of two dimensional induced gravity.

A generalized model for two dimensional quantum gravity and dynamics of random surfaces for d>1

The possible interpretations of a new continuum model for the two-dimensional quantum gravity for $d>1$ ($d$=matter central charge), obtained by carefully treating both diffeomorphism and Weyl symmetries, are discussed. In particular we note that an effective field theory is achieved in low energy (large area) expansion, that may represent smooth self-avoiding random surfaces embedded in a $d$-dimensional flat space-time for arbitrary $d$. Moreover the values of some critical exponents are computed, that are in agreement with some recent numerical results.

A continuum approach to 2D-Quantum Gravity for c$>$1

Two dimensional induced quantum gravity with matter central charge $c>1$ is studied taking a careful consideration of both diffeomorphism and Weyl symmetries . It is shown that, for the gauge fixing condition $R(g)$ (scalar curvature)=$const$, one obtains a modification of the David-Distler-Kawai version of KPZ scaling. We obtain a class of models with the real string tension for all values $c>1$. They contain an indeterminate parameter which is, however, strongly constrained by the requirement of non triviality of such a model. The possible physical significance of the new model is discussed. In particular we note that it describes smooth surfaces imbedded in $d$-dimensional flat space time for arbitrary $d$, consistently with recent numerical result for $d=3$.

Finite-Temperature and -Density QED: Schwinger-Dyson Equation in the Real-Time Formalism

Based on the real-time formalism, especially, on Thermo Field Dynamics, we derive the Schwinger-Dyson gap equation for the fermion propagator in QED and Four-Fermion model at finite-temperature and -density. We discuss some advantage of the real-time formalism in solving the self-consistent gap equation, in comparison with the ordinary imaginary-time formalism. Once we specify the vertex function, we can write down the SD equation with only continuous variables without performing the discrete sum over Matsubara frequencies which cannot be performed in advance without further approximation in the imaginary-time formalism. By solving the SD equation obtained in this way, we find the chiral-symmetry restoring transition at finite-temperature and present the associated phase diagram of strong coupling QED. In solving the SD equation, we consider two approximations: instantaneous-exchange and $p_0$-independent ones. The former has a direct correspondence in the imaginary time formalism, while the latter is a new approximation beyond the former, since the latter is able to incorporate new thermal effects which has been overlooked in the ordinary imaginary-time solution. However both approximations are shown to give qualitatively the same results on the finite-temperature phase transition.

(D+1)-Dimensional Formulation for D-Dimensional Constrained Systems

D-dimensional constrained systems are studied with stochastic Lagrangian and\break Hamiltonian. It is shown that stochastic consistency conditions are second class constraints and Lagrange multiplier fields can be determined in (D+1)-dimensional canonical formulation. The Langevin equations for the constrained system are obtained as Hamilton's equations of motion where conjugate momenta play a part of noise fields.

Dynamical Symmetry Breaking on Langevin Equation : Nambu $\cdot$ Jona-Lasinio Model

In order to investigate dynamical symmetry breaking, we study Nambu$\cdot$Jona-Lasinio model in the large-N limit in the stochastic quantization method. Here in order to solve Langevin equation, we impose specified initial conditions and construct ``effective Langevin equation'' in the large-N limit and give the same non-perturbative results as path-integral approach gives. Moreover we discuss stability of vacuum by means of ``effective potential''.
