Some Approaches to the Energy-Loss Straggling Calculation

Some exact and approximate methods commonly used to calculate corrections to the Bethe stopping formula are modified and adapted by the authors to the calculation of the energy loss straggling. An intercomparison is carried out for results of approaches developed in the present work. An excellent agreement obtained between the results for ELS, calculated with an exact method previously proposed by one of the authors and the results of the Lindhard-Sorensen method for moderate relativistic energies. It is shown that some modified by authors approximate methods for the ELS calculating have the higher accuracy than the conventional approximate method of Lijian-Qing-Zhengming. So, in all the cases considered, the accuracy of the twice modified LQZ method in the ELS calculations is higher than the accuracy of the usual LQZ method. A thrice modified LQZ method was also suggested in this work. A number of shortened LQZ methods for the ELS calculating have been proposed and developed too.

Comparison of the Lindhard-Sorensen and Mott-Bloch corrections to the Bethe stopping formula at moderately relativistic energies

The results of numerical calculating the total Mott-Bloch correction to the Bethe stopping formula and the Lindhard-Sorensen correction in the point nucleus approximation, as well as the Mott correction and the difference between the Lindhard-Sorensen and Bloch corrections, which were obtained by some rigorous and approximate methods, are compared for the ranges of a gamma factor of approximately from 1 to 10 and the ion nuclear charge number Z from 6 to 114. It is shown that the accurate calculation of the Mott-Bloch corrections based on the Mott exact cross section using a method previously proposed by one of the authors gives excellent agreement between its values and the values of the Lindhard-Sorensen corrections in the gamma and Z ranges under consideration. In addition, it is demonstrated that the results of stopping power calculations obtained by the two above-mentioned rigorous methods coincide with each other up to the seventh significant digit and provide the best agreement with experimental data in contrast with the results of some approximate methods, such as the methods of Ahlen, Jackson-McCarthy, etc.

Dimesoatom breakup in the Coulomb field

Momentum and angular distributions of charged meson pairs $h^+h^-$ ($h=π, K$) from elementary atoms (EA) breakup (ionization) in the Coulomb field of a target atom is considered in the Born and Glauber approximations. Exploiting the fact that the atomic screening of the target Coulomb potential is important at small transfer momenta, while multi-photon exchanges are essential at large transfer momenta we express the cross sections of EA breakup as a sum of two terms. In the region of modest transfer momenta the cross section is determined by the single-photon exchange (first Born approximation) accounting for the target atoms screening, whereas at large transfer momenta using the unscreened potential allows to take into account all multi-photon exchanges and obtain the cross section of EA breakup in the close analytical form.

A Quasiclassical Approximation in the Theory of the Landau-Pomeranchuk Effect

Using the improved value of the screening angular parameter in the quasiclassical approximation of the Moliere multiple scattering theory we show that the best agreement between the Migdal theory of the LPM-effect and experiment is achieved if the multiple scattering of electrons by target atoms is described using the quasiclassical approximation instead of the traditionally used Born one.

Final state emission radiative corrections to the process $e^+e^- \to π^+π^-(γ)$. Contribution to muon anomalous magnetic moment

Analytic calculation are presented of the contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of a muon from the channels of annihilation of an electron-positron pair to a pair of charged pi-mesons with radiative correction connected with the final state, as well as corrections to the lowest order kernel. The result with point-like pi-meson assumptions is $a_{point}=a_{point}^{(1)}+Δa_{point}$, $a_{point}^{(1)}=7.0866 \cdot 10^{-9}; Δa_{point}= -2.4 \cdot 10^{-10} .$ Taking into account the pion form factor in the frames of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) approach leads to $a_{NJL}=a_{NJL}^{(1)}+Δa_{NJL}$, $a_{NJL}^{(1)}= 5.48\cdot 10^{-8}; Δa_{NJL}=-3.43\cdot 10^{-9}$.

Formation of $πμ$ atoms in $K_{μ4} decay

We derive the decay rate of $πμ$ atom formation in $K_{μ4}$ decay. Using the obtained expressions we calculate the decay rate of atom formation and point out that considered decay can give a noticeable contribution as a background to the fundamental decay $K^+\to π^+ν\barν$.

Final state interaction in kaons decays

The kaons decays to the pairs of charged and neutral pions are considered in the framework of the non-relativistic quantum mechanics. The general expressions for the decay amplitudes to the two different channels accounting for the strong interaction between pions are obtained. The developed approach allows one to estimate the contribution of terms of any order in strong interaction and correctly takes into account the electromagnetic interaction between the pions in the final state.

Quantum-mechanical description of in-medium fragmentation

We present a quantum-mechanical description of quark-hadron fragmentation in a nuclear environment. It employs the path-integral formulation of quantum mechanics, which takes care of all phases and interferences, and which contains all relevant time scales, like production, coherence, formation, etc. The cross section includes the probability of pre-hadron (colorless dipole) production both inside and outside the medium. Moreover, it also includes inside-outside production, which is a typical quantum-mechanical interference effect (like twin-slit electron propagation). We observe a substantial suppression caused by the medium, even if the pre-hadron is produced outside the medium and no energy loss is involved. This important source of suppression is missed in the usual energy-loss scenario interpreting the effect of jet quenching observed in heavy ion collisions. This may be one of the reasons of a too large gluon density, reported by such analyzes.

The electromagnetic effects in $K_{e4}$ decay

The final state interaction of pions in $K_{e4}$ decay allows one to obtain the value of the isospin and angular momentum zero $ππ$ scattering length $a_0^0$.We take into account the electromagnetic interaction of pions and isospin symmetry breaking effects caused by different masses of neutral and charged pions and estimate the impact of these effects on the procedure of scattering length extraction from $K_{e4}$ decay.

The isospin symmetry breaking effects in $K_{e4}$ decays

The Fermi-Watson theorem is generalized to the case of two coupled channels with different masses and applied to final state interaction in $K_{e4}$ decays. The impact of considered effect on the phase of the $ππ$ scattering is estimated and shown that it can be crucial for scattering lengths extraction from experimental data on $K_{e4}$ decays.

Electromagnetic effects and scattering lengths extraction from experimental data on $K \to 3π$ decays

The final state interactions in $K^\pm\toπ^\pmπ^0π^0$ decays are considered using the methods of non-relativistic quantum mechanics. We show how to take into account the largest electromagnetic effects in the analysis of experimental data, using the amplitudes calculated earlier. We propose the relevant expressions for amplitude corrections valid both above and below the two charged pion production threshold $M_{π^0π^0}=2m_{π^\pm}$, including the average effect for the threshold bin. These formulae can be used in the procedure of pion scattering lengths measurement from $M_{π^0π^0}$ spectrum.

Electromagnetic corrections to final state interactions in $K\to 3π$ decays

The final state interactions of pions in decays $K^\pm\toπ^\pmπ^0π^0$ are considered using the methods of quantum mechanics. We show how to incorporate the electromagnetic effects in the amplitudes of these decays and to work out the relevant expressions valid above and below the two charged pions production threshold $M_c=2m$. The electromagnetic corrections are given as evaluated in a potential model.

Dipole description of inclusive particle production

The effects of multiple interactions in colliding particles (e.g. in nucleus-nucleus collisions) are modeled using the light-cone dipole approach. Guided by the abelian analogue of multi-photon interactions in the production of a pair of charged particles, we relate the inclusive cross section of quark pair production with the cross sections of interaction of a QCD dipole with either the beam or the target.

$e^+e^-$ pair production in relativistic ions collision and its correspondence to electron-ion scattering

It is shown that the amplitudes of electron-ion scattering and $e^+e^-$ pair production in the Coulomb field of two colliding ions are sxpressed in the terms of electron scattering amplitudes in the fields of the individual ions via the Watson expansion. We have obtained the compact expressions for these amplitudes valid in the high energy limit and discuss the crossing symmetry relations among the considered processes.

It is shown that the processes of electron(positron) scattering and $e^+e^-$ pair production in the Coulomb fields of two relativistic ions, can be expressed through the amplitudes of lepton scattering off the ion Coulomb field via Watson expansion. We obtained the compact expressions for these amplitudes valid in the high energy limit and discuss the crossing symmetry relations among the considered processes.
