We parameterize the η self-energy in the nuclear medium as a function of energy and density. We find that the single-particle energies are sensitive to the scattering length, and increase monotonically with the nucleus. The key point for the study of η-nucleus bound states is the η-nuclear optical potential. We study the s-wave interactions of η mesons in a nuclear medium and obtain the optical potential Uη ≈ -72 MeV. Comparing our results with the previous results, we find that the ηN scattering length aηN is indeed important to the calculations. With increasing nuclear density the effective mass of the η meson decreases.展开更多

In this approach the quark-number susceptibility is totally determined by G[μ](p) (the dressed quark propagator at finite chemical potential μ). By applying the general result in our previous study [Phys. Rev. C 71 (2005) 015205, 034901, 73 (2006) 016004 ] G[μ](p) is calculated from the model quark propagator proposed by Pagels and Stokar [Phys. Rev. D 20 (1979) 2947]. The full analytic expression of the quark-number susceptibility at finite μ and zero T is obtained.展开更多

Based on this approach, estimations of lowest order corrections were easily obtained. In the non-relativistic limit, the Dirac electron appears as a distribution of charge and current extended over a region of linear dimension of the order of Compton wavelength, which generates its magnetic moment. The e.m. mass (self-energy) of electron outside this region does not participate to this internal dynamics, and consequently does not contribute to the mass term in the formula of the magnetic moment. This is the physical origin of the small increase of the magnetic moment of free electron compared to the value given by Dirac equation. We give arguments that this physical interpretation is self-consistent with the QED approach. The bound electron being localized, it has kinetic energy which means a mass increase from a relativistic point of view, which determines a magnetic moment decrease (relativistic Breit correction). On the other hand, the e.m. mass of electron decreases at the formation of the bound state due to coulomb interaction with the nucleus. We estimated this e.m. mass decrease of bound electron only in its internal dynamics region, and from it the corresponding increase of the magnetic moment (QED correction). The corrections to the mass value are at the origin of the lowest order corrections to the magnetic moment of free and bound electron.展开更多

The screening potential is calculated in the RPA limit, suitably renormalized to cure the low density mechanical instability of nuclear matter. The self-energy corrections are consistently included resulting in a strong depletion of the Fermi surface. The self-energy effects always lead to a quenching of the gap, whereas it is almost completely compensated by the anti-screening effect in nuclear matter.展开更多

The accuracy of the analysis depends on the m odels for elastic and inelastic interactions. Electrons impinging on a solid or escaping from it suffer losses in the surface layer. The energy loss spectra the refore have contributions from surface excitations. The role of surface excitati ons is characterized by surface excitation parameter (SEP), which indicates the number of surface plasmons created by an electron crossing the surface. The imag inary part of complex self-energy of an electron is related to the energy loss c ross section. SEP is numerically computed using self-energy formalism and compar ed with the results as described and calculated by different workers.展开更多

Discontinuities in the hypersurface are due to refraction involving Snell’s law, as opposed to discontinuities in time that would involve the Doppler effect. The presence of a static gravitational potential in the metric coefficients is accounted by an index of refraction that is entirely dependent on the space coordinates. The two-time Einstein metric must be reinterpreted as a two-space scale metric because of the two different speeds of light. It is shown that the Schwarzschild metric is incompatible with the laws of classical physics. Gravitational waves are identified with the transverse-trans-verse plane wave solutions to Einstein’s equations in vacuum, which propagate at the speed of light. Yet, when energy loss is evaluated, his equations acquire, surprisingly, a source term. Poynting’s vector, which is not a true vector, is defined in terms of the pseudo-gravitational tensor, and hence energy is neither localizable nor conserved. The solutions to the equations of motion are geodesics and, by definition, do not radiate. A finite speed of propagation implies that gravitational waves should aberrate, like their electromagnetic wave counterparts, and if they do not aberrate they cannot radiate.展开更多
