Local chiral potentials with Δ -intermediate states and the structure of light nuclei

In this paper, we present fully local versions of the minimally nonlocal nucleon-nucleon potentials constructed in a previous paper [Piarulli et al., Phys. Rev. C 91, 024003 (2015)], and use them in hypersperical harmonics and quantum Monte Carlo calculations of ground and excited states of $^3$H, $^3$He, $^4$He, $^6$He, and $^6$Li nuclei. The long-range part of these local potentials includes one- and two-pion exchange contributions without and with $\Delta$-isobars in the intermediate states up to order $Q^3$ ($Q$ denotes generically the low momentum scale) in the chiral expansion, while the short-range part consists of contact interactions up to order $Q^4$. The low-energy constants multiplying these contact interactions are fitted to the 2013 Granada database in two different ranges of laboratory energies, either 0–125 MeV or 0–200 MeV, and to the deuteron binding energy and $nn$ singlet scattering length. Fits to these data are performed for three models characterized by long- and short-range cutoffs, $R_{\rm L}$ and $R_{\rm S}$, respectively, ranging from $(R_{\rm L},R_{\rm S})=(1.2,0.8)$ fm down to $(0.8,0.6)$ fm. Finally, the long-range (short-range) cutoff regularizes the one- and two-pion exchange (contact) part of the potential.

Multiplicity dependence of light-flavor hadron production in p p collisions at s = 7 TeV

Comprehensive results on the production of unidentified charged particles, $π^±, K^±, K^0_S, K^*(892)^0, p,$ $\bar{p}$, $\phi$ (1020), Λ, $\bar{Λ}$, $\Xi^-$, $\bar{\Xi}^+$, $Ω^-$, and $\bar{Ω}^+$ hadrons in proton-proton ($pp$) collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV at midrapidity ($|y|$ < 0.5) as a function of charged-particle multiplicity density are presented. In order to avoid autocorrelation biases, the actual transverse momentum ($p$ T ) spectra of the particles under study and the event activity are measured in different rapidity windows. In the highest multiplicity class, the charged-particle density reaches about 3.5 times the value measured in inelastic collisions. While the yield of protons normalized to pions remains approximately constant as a function of multiplicity, the corresponding ratios of strange hadrons to pions show a significant enhancement that increases with increasing strangeness content. Furthermore, all identified particle-to-pion ratios are shown to depend solely on charged-particle multiplicity density, regardless of system type and collision energy. The evolution of the spectral shapes with multiplicity and hadron mass shows patterns that are similar to those observed in $p$-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions at Large Hadron Collider energies. The obtained $p$ T distributions and yields are compared to expectations from QCD-based $pp$ event generators as well as to predictions from thermal and hydrodynamic models. These comparisons indicate that traces of a collective, equilibrated system are already present in high-multiplicity $pp$ collisions.
