Currently, the structure of the X(3872) meson is unknown. Different competing models of the exotic state X(3872) exist, including the possibilities that this state is either a mesonic molecule with dominating D0D¯ ∗0 + c.c. composition, a tetraquark, or a -gluon hybrid state. It is expected that the X(3872) state is rather strongly coupled to the channel and, therefore, can be produced in and collisions at PANDA. We propose to test the hypothetical molecular structure of by studying the D or D¯⁎ stripping reactions on a nuclear residue.
An incoming or outgoing hadron in a hard collision with large momentum transfer gets squeezed in the transverse direction to its momentum. In the case of nuclear targets, this leads to the reduced interaction of such hadrons with surrounding nucleons which is known as color transparency (CT). The identification of CT in exclusive processes on nuclear targets is of significant interest not only by itself but also due to the fact that CT is a necessary condition for the applicability of factorization for the description of the corresponding elementary process. In this paper we discuss the semiexclusive processes A(e,e′π+) , A(π−,l−l+) and A(γ,π−p) . Since CT is closely related to hadron formation mechanism, the reduced interaction of ’pre-hadrons’ with nucleons is a common feature of generic high-energy inclusive processes on nuclear targets, such as hadron attenuation in deep inelastic scattering (DIS). We will discuss the novel way to study hadron formation via slow neutron production induced by a hard photon interaction with a nucleus. Finally, the opportunity to study hadron formation effects in heavy-ion collisions in the NICA regime will be considered.
Distillation of scalar exchange by coherent hypernucleus production in antiproton–nucleus collisions
(2017)
The total and angular differential cross sections of the coherent process p¯ + A Z → A (Z − 1) + ¯ are evaluated at the beam momenta 1.5 ÷ 20 GeV/c within the meson exchange model with bound proton and -hyperon wave functions. It is shown that the shape of the beam momentum dependence of the hypernucleus production cross sections with various discrete states is strongly sensitive to the presence of the scalar κ-meson exchange in the p p¯ → ¯ amplitude. This can be used as a clean test of the exchange by scalar π K correlation in coherent p A¯ reactions.
The results of the microscopic transport calculations of -nucleus interactions within a GiBUU model are presented. The dominating mechanism of hyperon production is the strangeness exchange processes → γπ and → ΞK. The calculated rapidity spectra of Ξ hyperons are significantly shifted to forward rapidities with respect to the spectra of S = −1 hyperons. We argue that this shift should be a sensitive test for the possible exotic mechanisms of -nucleus annihilation. The production of the double Λ-hypernuclei by Ξ− interaction with a secondary target is calculated.
We compare multiplicities as well as rapidity and transverse momentum distributions of protons, pions and kaons calculated within presently available transport approaches for heavy ion collisions around 1 AGeV. For this purpose, three reactions have been selected: Au+Au at 1 and 1.48 AGeV and Ni+Ni at 1.93 AGeV.
