Abstract In this paper, we present a detailed next-to-leading-order (NLO) study of J/ψ angular distributions in e+e−→ J/ψ + ηc, χcJ (J = 0, 1, 2) within the nonrelativistic QCD factorization (NRQCD). The numerical NLO expressions for total and differential cross sections, i.e., $$ \frac{d\sigma}{d\cos \theta } $$ dσ d cos θ = A + B cos2θ, are both derived. With the inclusion of the newly-calculated QCD corrections to A and B, the αθ (= B/A) parameters in J/ψ + χc0 and J/ψ + χc1 are moderately enhanced, while the magnitude of αθJ/ψ+χc2 is significantly reduced; regarding the production of J/ψ + ηc, the αθ value remains unchanged. By comparing with experiment, we find the predicted αθJ/ψ+ηc is in good agreement with the Belle measurement; however, αθJ/ψ+χc0 is still totally incompatible with the experimental result, and this discrepancy seems to hardly be cured by proper choices of the charm-quark mass, the renormalization scale, and the NRQCD matrix elements.

Double differential cross sections at six angles ranging from 45° to 143° have been measured for the 12C(e,p)e′ reaction. The proton energy ranged from 15.6 to 17.2 MeV at an incident electron energy of 200 MeV. At the backward angles our results are in good agreement with data reported by Vysotskaya and Afanas'ev but for forward angles the results are lower.

Levels in the deformed even–even nucleus 152Sm have been populated by the (t,α) reaction using beams of 15 MeV tritons from the model FN tandem Van de Graaff accelerator at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. For the initial experiments in the series the reaction products were analyzed in an Elbek magnetic spectrograph and detected with nuclear emulsions. Those done later made use of the Q3D magnetic spectrometer and helical-cathode focal plane detector. On the basis of levels observed in adjacent odd-Z nuclei and some previous (α,2nγ) results, a rotational band built on the Kπ = 5−, 5/2+[413] + 5/2−[532] two-quasiparticle state has been identified. A Coriolis coupling calculation has been done, which gives good agreement with experimental energies and cross sections when an attenuation factor of 0.31 is used for the Coriolis matrix elements.

The elastic scattering angular distributions of weakly bound nucleus$^{8}$Li on $^{7}$Li, $^{9}$Be, $^{12}$C, $^{13}$C, $^{14}$N,$^{27}$Al, $^{51}$V, $^{58}$Ni, and $^{208}$Pb are analyzed atvarious incident energies. For this purpose, the real potential isgenerated for nine different density distributions of the $^{8}$Linucleus by using the double folding model within the optical model.The theoretical results are in good agreement with the experimentaldata. In our study, also, new and practical sets of imaginarypotentials for the investigated densities are derived.

Abstract We develop a formalism for computing inclusive production cross sections of heavy quarkonia based on the nonrelativistic QCD and the potential nonrelativistic QCD effective field theories. Our formalism applies to strongly coupled quarkonia, which include excited charmonium and bottomonium states. Analogously to heavy quarkonium decay processes, we express nonrelativistic QCD long-distance matrix elements in terms of quarkonium wavefunctions at the origin and universal gluonic correlators. Our expressions for the long-distance matrix elements are valid up to corrections of order $$ 1/{N}_c^2 $$ 1 / N c 2 . These expressions enhance the predictive power of the nonrelativistic effective field theory approach to inclusive production processes by reducing the number of nonperturbative unknowns, and make possible first-principle determinations of long-distance matrix elements once the gluonic correlators are known. Based on this formalism, we compute the production cross sections of P-wave charmonia and bottomonia at the LHC, and find good agreement with measurements.

AbstractWe present an improved determination of the strange quark and antiquark parton distribution functions of the proton by means of a global QCD analysis that takes into account a comprehensive set of strangeness-sensitive measurements: charm-tagged cross sections for fixed-target neutrino–nucleus deep-inelastic scattering, and cross sections for inclusive gauge-boson production and W-boson production in association with light jets or charm quarks at hadron colliders. Our analysis is accurate to next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD where available, and specifically includes charm-quark mass corrections to neutrino–nucleus structure functions. We find that a good overall description of the input dataset can be achieved and that a strangeness moderately suppressed in comparison to the rest of the light sea quarks is strongly favored by the global analysis.

We study the effective theory of decoupling of a charm quark at low energies. We do this by simulating a model, QCD with two mass-degenerate charm quarks. At leading order the effective theory is a pure gauge theory. By computing ratios of hadronic scales we have direct access to the power corrections in the effective theory. We show that these corrections follow the expected leading behavior, which is quadratic in the inverse charm quark mass.

Interatomic potentials are studied by means of a crossed beam apparatus consisting of a target chamber in which a monoenergetic beam of H, He, B, and N ions of energies E < 70 keV interacts with a thermal beam of Hg atoms. Angular distributions for the scattering of all charge states of 1H, 4He, 11B, and 14N are measured in the range of 17° < θL < 60°. All measured cross sections are in good agreement with the theory for scattering in a Thomas–Fermi potential to which Lindhard's theoretical estimates are shown to be quite accurate approximations. A Padé approximant is derived for the Thomas–Fermi potential and is used to calculate tables of Thomas–Fermi scattering parameters.

We analyze the D→ππ decay channels at the leading order, αs corrections with the QCD factorization and the soft-gluon corrections with the light cone QCD sum rule. Comparing with the experimental result, the calculations of the D0→π+π- and D+→π+π0 decay are much better under the consideration of the contributions of factorization parts, αs corrections and soft-gluon effects. However, the calculation result is one order less than the experimental result in D0→π0π0 decay. It may have large effects of final state interaction in the decay channel.
