Invariant-Mass Spectroscopy for Condensed Single- and Double-\kbar Nuclear Clusters to be Formed as Residues in Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions

Using a phenomenological KN interaction combined with the method of Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics., we predict that few-body double-\kbar nuclei, such as ppK$^-$K$^-$ and ppnK$^-$K$^-$, as well as single-\kbar nuclei, are tightly bound compact systems with large binding energies and ultra-high nucleon densities. We point out that these \kbar nuclear clusters can be produced as residual fragments in relativistic heavy-ion collisions and that their invariant masses can be reconstructed from their decay particles.

Kaonic nuclei studied based on a new framework of Antisymmetric Molecular Dynamics

We have developed a new framework of Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics (AMD), to adequately treat the I=0 KN interaction, which is essential to study kaonic nuclei. The improved points are 1) pK$^-$/nK$^0$ mixing and 2) total spin and isospin projections. These improvements enable us to investigate various kaonic nuclei (ppnK$^-$, pppK$^-$, pppnK$^-$, $^6$BeK$^-$ and $^9$BK$^-$) systematically. We have found that they are deeply bound and extremely dense with a variety of shapes.

Transposition of a local-density-dependent pion-nucleus potential to an effective density-linear potential - generalized Seki-Masutani relations

We have shown that a local-density-dependent term, $F[ρ(r)] ρ(r)$, of the pion-nucleus potential with a nuclear density, $ρ(r)$, can be transposed to a conventional density-linear term, $F(ρ_e) ρ(r)$, with an effective nuclear density, $ρ_e$, which is close to $\sim 0.6 ρ(0)$ for most $π^-$ bound states. The presently found relations, {\it generalized Seki-Masutani relations}, for the density-quadratic term, the medium-modified isovector term and the double-scattering isoscalar term of the s-wave pion-nucleus interaction assure that the constant parameters in the conventional pion-nucleus potential are interpreted as being effective ones in the light of density-dependent effects.
