Target and beam-target spin asymmetries in exclusive pion electroproduction for Q 2 > 1 GeV 2 . I. e p → e π + n

Beam-target double-spin asymmetries and target single-spin asymmetries were measured for the exclusive π+ electroproduction reaction γ*p → nπ + . The results were obtained from scattering of 6-GeV longitudinally polarized electrons off longitudinally polarized protons using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer at Jefferson Laboratory. The kinematic range covered is 1.1 < W < 3 GeV and 1 < Q 2 < 6GeV 2 . Results were obtained for about 6000 bins in W, Q 2 , cos(θ*), and Φ*. Except at forward angles, very large target-spin asymmetries are observed over the entire W region. Reasonable agreement is found with phenomenological fits to previous data for W < 1.6 GeV, but very large differences are seen at higher values of W. Finally, a generalized parton distributions (GPD)-based model is in poor agreement with the data. When combined with cross-sectional measurements, the present results provide powerful constraints on nucleon resonance amplitudes at moderate and large values of Q 2 , for resonances with masses as high as 2.4 GeV.

Does the multiple-scattering series in the pion-deuteron scattering actually converge?

It is demonstrated that the well-known answer for the multiple-scattering series (MSS) for a light particle interacting to a pair of static nucleons, calculated in the Fixed Centers Approximation (FCA), works well for a wide region of the two-body complex scattering length a. However, this approach is not applicable in a narrow region surrounding the real positive a half-axis, where the MSS does not converge. Simultaneously, for real positive a's the 3-body system forms an infinite set of bound states.

Looking for chiral anomaly in pion photoproduction on kaons

In an experiment currently being performed at the Institute for High Energy Physics, Serpukhov, Russia, a beam of charged kaons is directed on a copper target. In the electromagnetic field of the target nuclei, two reactions occur: K{sup +}γ → K{sup +}π{sup 0} and K{sup +}γ → K{sup 0}π{sup +}. A peculiar distinction between these two reactions is that there is a chiral anomaly contribution in the former reaction, but not in the latter. This contribution can be directly seen through comparison of the cross sections of these reactions near the threshold. In Ref. [1] expressions for these cross sections are derived taking into account the anomaly and the contribution of the lightest vector mesons. In this talk an overview of the derivation is provided and cross sections numerical values near the threshold are presented.
