Calculable Microscopic Theory for $^{12}$C($α$, $γ$)$^{16}$O Cross Section near Gamow Window II

A microscopic approach to the $^{12}$C$(α, γ)^{16}$O radiative-capture reaction near the Gamow window has been proposed by Y. Suzuki, Few-Body Syst. {\bf 62}, 2 (2021). The important ingredients of the approach include the following: (1) The states of $^{12}$C and $^{16}$O relevant to the reaction are described by fully microscopic 3\,$α$-particle and 4\,$α$-particle configurations. (2) The isovector electric dipole transition is accounted for through the isospin impurity of the constituent $α$-particles. (3) The relative motion among the $α$-particles is expanded in terms of correlated-Gaussian basis functions. A calculation of the radiative-capture cross section demands double angular-momentum projections, that is, the angular momentum of $^{12}$C consisting of 3 $α$-particles and the orbital angular momentum for $^{12}$C$-α$ relative motion. Advancing the previous formulation based on the single angular-momentum projection, I carry out the double projection and present all the formulas needed for the cross section calculation.

A Markov chain approximation of switched Fokker-Planck equations for a model of on-off intermittency in the postural control during quiet standing

The intermittent on-off switching of feedback control is considered as a major mechanism of postural stabilization during human quiet standing, which can be modeled by switched-type hybrid stochastic delay differential equations with unstable subsystems. Dynamics of the model can also be described by the corresponding switched-type Fokker-Planck (FP) equations. Here, we develop a comprehensive numerical recipe to simulate switched-type FP equations in the case that the probability current is conserved at the switching boundary, as is the case for noise-free models exhibiting C^0-continuity for solutions at the boundary, but in a way extendable to cases with discontinuous jump. Specifically, the FP equations are approximated by a finite state Markov chain model using the finite element method. Then, dynamics of the Markov chain model, including time evolution of probability density function (PDF), stationary PDF, and power spectrum of postural sway are analyzed. We further investigate how the stationary PDF alters as values of important parameters of the model change. Dynamics of the Markov chain model are compared with Monte Carlo-based dynamics of the model, by which the developed numerical recipe is validated. The obtained Markov chain model forms a basis of our future investigations of the intermittent postural control as a Markov decision process.

Deformed Explicitly Correlated Gaussians

Deformed correlated Gaussian basis functions are introduced and their matrix elements are calculated. These basis functions can be used to solve problems with nonspherical potentials. One example of such potential is the dipole self-interaction term in the Pauli-Fierz Hamiltonian. Examples are presented showing the accuracy and necessity of deformed Gaussian basis functions to accurately solve light-matter coupled systems in cavity QED.

Phase resetting and intermittent control at critical edge of stability as major mechanisms of fractality in human gait cycle variability

The fractality of human gait, namely, the long-range correlation that characterizes scale-free fluctuations of gait descriptors, such as the stride intervals during steady-state walking, depends on the well-tuned organization of the sensorimotor controller. Gait fractality is apparent in healthy young adults but tends to disappear in elderly individuals and neurological patients. Therefore, its partial loss may be indicative of pathological conditions. Despite its potential to be used as a dynamical biomarker for fall risk assessment, the mechanistic origin of gait fractality has been investigated by only a few studies, and even less attention has been devoted to the link between gait fractality and gait stability. Here, we propose a novel computational model of gait by addressing the flexibility-stability trade-off first, and then by showing that gait fractality is a natural consequence of the developed control mechanisms, including phase resetting and intermittent control, which supplement instability in a linear feedback controller operated at stability's edge. The results suggest that pathological gait, characterized by joint-rigidity and/or loss of fractality, may be caused by dysfunction in some of these mechanisms.

Adiabatic hyperspherical approach to large-scale nuclear dynamics

We formulate a fully microscopic approach to large-scale nuclear dynamics using a hyperradius as a collective coordinate. An adiabatic potential is defined by taking account of all possible configurations at a fixed hyperradius, and its hyperradius dependence plays a key role in governing the global nuclear motion. In order to go to larger systems beyond few-body systems, we suggest basis functions of a microscopic multicluster model, propose a method for calculating matrix elements of an adiabatic Hamiltonian with use of Fourier transforms, and test its effectiveness.

G-Matrix Equation in the Resonating-Group Method

The G-matrix equation is most straightforwardly formulated in the resonating-group method if the quark-exchange kernel is directly used as the driving term for the infinite sum of all the ladder diagrams. The inherent energy-dependence involved in the exchange term of the normalization kernel plays the essential role to define the off-shell T-matrix uniquely when the complete Pauli-forbidden state exists. We analyze this using a simple solvable model with no quark-quark interaction, and calculating the most general T-matrix in the formulation developed by Noyes and Kowalski. This formulation gives a certain condition for the existence of the solution in the Lippmann-Schwinger resonating-group method. A new procedure to deal with the corrections for the reduced masses and the internal-energy terms in the Lambda N - Sigma N coupled-channel resonating-group equation is proposed.

Study of Light Lambda- and Lambda Lambda-Hypernuclei with the Stochastic Variational Method and Effective Lambda N Potentials

We first determine the Lambda-N S-wave phase shifts so as to reproduce the experimental Lambda separation energies of A=3, 4 Lambda-hypernuclei, and then construct three phase-equivalent Lambda-N potentials with different central repulsion. By the stochastic variational method with correlated Gaussian basis we perform an extensive calculation of ab initio type for the hypernuclei of up to A=6. The binding energies and the sizes of the Lambda-hypernuclei are very insensitive to the type of the phase-equivalent Lambda-N potentials. We use two different Lambda-Lambda potentials which both reproduce Delta B_{Lambda Lambda} of 6He_{Lambda Lambda} reasonably well. Any combination of these Lambda-N and Lambda-Lambda potentials predicts hitherto undiscovered particle-stable bound states, 4H_{Lambda Lambda}, 5H_{Lambda Lambda} and 5He_{Lambda Lambda}: Predicted values of B_{Lambda Lambda} are about 0.4, 5.5 and 6.3 MeV, respectively. The binding energy of 4H_{Lambda Lambda} is so small that its possibility crucially depends on the strength of the Lambda-Lambda interaction. The binding energies of both 5He_Lambda and 6He_{Lambda Lambda} are calculated to be strongly overbound compared to experiment. In relation to this well-known anomaly we examine the effect of the quark substructure of $N$ and Lambda on their binding energies. The effect is negligible if the baryon size in which three quarks are confined is smaller than 0.6 fm, but becomes appreciable, particularly in 6He_{Lambda Lambda}, if the size is taken to be as large as 0.7 fm. We discuss the extent to which the nucleon subsystem in the hypernuclei changes by the addition of Lambda particles. The charge symmetry breaking of the Lambda-N potential is phenomenologically determined and concluded to be weakly spin-dependent.

Lippmann-Schwinger Resonating-Group Formalism for NN and YN Interactions in an SU6 Quark Model

We formulate a Lippmann-Schwinger-type resonating-group equation to calculate invariant amplitudes of the quark-model baryon-baryon interaction. When applied to our recent SU6 quark model for the nucleon-nucleon and hyperon-nucleon interactions, this technique yields very accurate phase-shift parameters for all partial waves up to the energies of several GeV. The technique also has a merit of a straightforward extension to the G-matrix equation. A new analytic method is proposed to calculate the quark-exchange Born kernel for the momentum-dependent two-body interaction. The partial-wave decomposition in the momentum representation is carried out numerically. The invariant amplitudes are then used to calculate single-nucleon potentials in normal nuclear matter for high incident momenta q_1 > 3 (1/fm), in which the so-called t^eff-rho prescription is found to be a good approximation to the single-particle potentials directly calculated in the lowest-order Brueckner theory.
