The production of pseudo scalar, η, η′, and vector, ω, ρ, ϕ, mesons in NN collisions at threshold-near energies is analyzed within a covariant effective meson-nucleon theory. It is shown that a good description of cross sections and angular distributions, for vector meson production, can be accomplished by considering meson and nucleon currents only, while for pseudo scalar production an inclusion of nucleon resonances is needed. The di-electron production from subsequent Dalitz decay of the produced mesons, η′ → γγ* → γe+e- and ω → πγ* → πe+e- is also considered and numerical results are presented for intermediate energies and kinematics of possible experiments with HADES, CLAS and KEK-PS. We argue that the transition form factor ω → γ*π as well as η′ → γ*γ can be defined in a fairly model independent way and the feasibility of an experimental access to transition form factors is discussed.

A review is given of the measurements of the diffractive process in recent years from two high-energy colliders, the HERA ep collider and the Tevatron [Formula: see text] collider. The energy dependence of the cross sections and the factorisation properties of diffractive processes are discussed.

We present a study of the η production at low energies in pd collision with 3He and pd nuclear systems in the final state. The η production mechanism is described by a two-step model and the final state interactions are included fully. The η - d and η - 3He final state interactions are incorporated through the solution of the Lippmann Schwinger equation for a half off-shell η - AT-matrix. For η - d this t -matrix is written in a factorized form, with an off-shell form factor multiplying an on-shell part having the scattering length representation. The p - d final state interaction is included by multiplying the production matrix element by the inverse of the Jost function which includes the strong as well as the Coulomb interaction. The total cross sections are found to be strongly affected by both the η - d and the p - d final state interactions. The η - 3HeT-matrix is obtained in the Finite Rank Approximation (FRA) by solving few-body equations. The calculated total cross sections are in good accord with the available experimental data. Through the time delay method of Wigner, we also explore the possibility of the existence of quasi-bound η-3 He mesic states in this η - 3He T -matrix. We find that the T -matrix which reproduces the low energy pd → 3He η data implies a quasi-bound eta state near threshold. This is in accord with experimental indications.


The interaction of 970 MeV protons with helium has been studied with a high-pressure diffusion cloud chamber. From 642 events the total and absorption cross-sections were found to be 116 ± 17 mb and 93 ± 13 mb, respectively. These agree with values obtained by extrapolation of known cross-sections for more complex nuclei, and the results are interpreted in terms of the optical model of the nucleus. The angular distribution for elastic-scattering yields an α -particle radius of 1⋅8 x 10 -13 cm. Quasi-elastic proton-proton and proton-neutron scattering, and more particularly charged meson production, show that the α -particle has some individual particle characteristics. Meson reabsorption appears unimportant.

It is shown that reactions with one-pion exchange, reactions of meson production in the central region and reactions of nucleon-antinucleon annihilation can be good laboratories to search, in the ρ+ρ+ and ρ−ρ−channels, for the exotic resonance states E++ and E−− with IG(JP)=2+(2+), the signs of the neutral partner of which were discovered probably in the reactions γγ→ρρ. Detailed estimates are presented for the cross sections of the reactions π+p→E++n→ρ+ρ+n, π−ρ→E−−Δ++→ρ−ρ−∆++, ρρ→n(E++)n→n(ρ+ρ+)n and similar ones at intermediate energies.

Exclusive [Formula: see text] meson production is computed in dipole model using two different light-cone wave functions in this paper. The Color-Glass-Condensate (CGC) model is implemented to compute the dipole cross-section. The two light-cone wave functions are AdS/QCD model and boosted Gaussian model. It can be seen that the predictions using the two light-cone wave functions are close to each other.

In this paper, we investigate the next-to-leading order contribution of the higher-twist Feynman diagrams to the large-pT inclusive pion production cross-section in proton–proton collisions and present the general formulae for the higher-twist differential cross-sections in the case of the running coupling and frozen coupling approaches. We compared the resummed next-to-leading order higher-twist cross-sections with the ones obtained in the framework of the frozen coupling approach and leading-twist cross-section. The structure of infrared renormalon singularities of the higher-twist subprocess cross-section and its resummed expression (the Borel sum) are found. It is shown that the resummed result depends on the choice of the meson wave functions used in the calculations. We discuss the phenomenological consequences of possible higher-twist contributions to the meson production in proton–proton collisions in next-to-leading order at RHIC.

The given functional self-similarity solution quantitatively describes angular, energy and A-dependences of inclusive production cross sections for hadrons in relativistic nuclear collisions. It is applied to quantitative estimation of D, as well as φ and J/ψ meson production in collider experiment at the NICA accelerator complex with heavy nuclei. The results can be used for optimization of kinematically registered parameters for investigation of collective phenomena.
