The Charm Quark Contribution to the Proton Structure Function

The charm quark structure function $F^c_2$ and the longitudinal structure function $F_l^p$ are directly sensitive to the gluon content of proton and therefore are crucial in understanding of proton structure function, in particular at low momentum transfer $Q^2$ and low Bjorken x. In the framework of perturbative QCD the charm structure function is calculated in the leading order (LO) and the proton structure function is investigated in the next leading order (NLO) at small x region. The valence quark distribution is obtained from the relativistic quark-exchange model. The calculated $F_2^c(x,Q^2)$, $F_2^p(x,Q^2)$ and $F_L^p(x,Q^2)$, are compared with the present available experimental data.

The effect of quark exchange in A=3 mirror nuclei and neutron/proton structure functions ratio

By using the quark-exchange formalism, realistic Faddeev wave functions and Fermi motion effect, we investigate deep inelastic electron scattering from A=3 mirror nuclei in the deep-valence region. The initial valence quarks in put are taken from the GRV's next-to-leading order calculations on $F_2^p(x,Q^2)$ which give very good fit to the available data in the $(x,Q^2)$-plane. It is shown that the free neutron to proton structure functions ratio can be extracted from corresponding EMC ratios for $^3He$ and $^3H$ mirror nuclei by using self-consistent iteration procedure and the results are in good agreement with other theoretical models as well as present available experimental data, especially the one expected form the proposed 11 GeV Jefferson Laboratory.

LOCV calculation for Beta-stable matter at finite temperature

The method of lowest-order constrained variational, which predicts reasonably the nuclear matter semi-empirical data is used to calculate the equation of state of beta-stable matter at finite temperature. The Reid soft-core with and without the N-$Δ$ interactions which fits the N-N scattering data as well as the $UV_{14}$ potential plus the three-nucleon interaction are considered in the nuclear many-body Hamiltonian. The electron and muon are treated relativistically in the total Hamiltonian at given temperature, to make the fluid electrically neutral and stable against beta decay. The calculation is performed for a wide range of baryon density and temperature which are of interest in the astrophysics. The free energy, entropy, proton abundance, etc. of nuclear beta-stable matter are calculated. It is shown that by increasing the temperature, the maximum proton abundance is pushed to the lower density while the maximum itself increases as we increase the temperature. The proton fraction is not enough to see any gas-liquid phase transition. Finally we get an overall agreement with other many-body techniques, which are available only at zero temperature.

The State Dependence Calculation of Three-body Cluster Energy for Nuclear Matter

It is shown that the method of lowest order contrained variational (LOCV) which is based on the cluster expansion theory is a reliable many-body technique to calculate the nuclear matter equation of states. In this respect the state-dependence correlation functions and effective interactions which have been produce by LOCV calculation with the Reid Soft Core and $Δ$-Reid interactions are used to estimate the size of higher order cluster terms such as the effect of three body cluster energy in nuclear matter. We find that the three-body cluster energy is less than 1 MeV beyond the nuclear matter saturation density and it has weaker density dependence than our previous calculation with the state-averaged coorrelation functions and effective interactions. Finally, we conclude that the LOCV method is good enough to calculate other propertiesn of quantal fluids.
