The alpha-alpha bremsstrahlung is studied using the generalization of the Siegert theorem. The corresponding amplitude is written in the gauge invariant form. Special attention is paid to taking into account the Coulomb interaction. Some correlation function is found and its dependence on the strong alpha-alpha interaction is discussed.

AbstractThe production of light nuclei in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is well described by both the thermal model, where light nuclei are in equilibrium with hadrons of all species present in a fireball, and by the coalescence model, where light nuclei are formed due to final-state interactions after the fireball decays. We present and critically discuss the two models and further on we consider two proposals to falsify one of the models. The first proposal is to measure a yield of exotic nuclide 4Li and compare it to that of 4He. The ratio of yields of the nuclides is quite different in the thermal and coalescence models. The second proposal is to measure a hadron-deuteron correlation function which carries information whether a deuteron is emitted from a fireball together with all other hadrons, as assumed in the thermal model, or a deuteron is formed only after nucleons are emitted, as in the coalescence model. The p − 3He correlation function is of interest in context of both proposals: it is needed to obtain the yield of 4Li which decays into p and 3He, but the correlation function can also tell us about an origin of 3He.

Investigation of momentum space correlations of particles produced in high energy reactions requires taking final state interactions into account, a crucial point of any such analysis. Coulomb interaction between charged particles is the most important such effect. In small systems like those created in e + e - - or p + p collisions, the so-called Gamow factor (valid for a point-like particle source) gives an acceptable description of the Coulomb interaction. However, in larger systems such as central or mid-central heavy ion collisions, more involved approaches are needed. In this paper we investigate the Coulomb final state interaction for Lévy-type source functions that were recently shown to be of much interest for a refined description of the space-time picture of particle production in heavy-ion collisions.

We examine a nonlocal interaction that results from expressing the QCD Hamiltonian entirely in terms of gauge-invariant quark and gluon fields. The interaction couples one quark color-charge density to another, much as electric charge densities are coupled to each other by the Coulomb interaction in QED. In QCD, this nonlocal interaction also couples quark color-charge densities to gluonic color. We show how the leading part of the interaction between quark color-charge densities vanishes when the participating quarks are in a color singlet configuration, and that, for singlet configurations, the residual interaction weakens as the size of a packet of quarks shrinks. Because of this effect, color-singlet packets of quarks should experience final state interactions that increase in strength as these packets expand in size. For the case of an SU(2) model of QCD based on the ansatz that the gauge-invariant gauge field is a hedgehog configuration, we show how the infinite series that represents the nonlocal interaction between quark color-charge densities can be evaluated nonperturbatively, without expanding it term-by-term. We discuss the implications of this model for QCD with SU(3) color and a gauge-invariant gauge field determined by QCD dynamics.
