Neutral scalar and vector meson exchange reproduces the basic Lorentz structure of the observed nucleon‐nucleon interaction, and the consequences of this structure are studied in detail. In the mean‐field approximation, nuclear saturation involves a cancellation between large attractive and repulsive components in the average potential energy. The attractive scalar field decreases the nucleon mass significantly, and the strong vector repulsion implies a stiff high‐density equation of state. Corrections to the mean‐field approach arising from vacuum fluctuations, self‐consistent nucleon exchange, and two‐nucleon correlations are examined. These have a small effect on the condensed meson fields but may produce significant changes in the binding energy. Corrections to the mean‐field equation of state are small at high density.","PeriodicalId":240164,"journal":{"name":"Intersections Between Particles and Nuclear Physics","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132174084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Separation by decay purification will be on the order of 1 p/10(π−+μ−). This beam will be used in a detailed investigation of Charmonium including a measurement of the χ widths. We will also search for expected but as yet unseen states, and search for possible I=1 events which would imply the existence of four quark states. This facility will also lend itself to a wide variety of exciting physics such as the proton form factor including both e+e− and γγ final states, two‐body hadron final states, antinucleus yields, and possibly tagged hadron beams (i.e., Λ, Ξ, etc.). When heavy ions become available at the AGS, one can measure various long lived particle yields. Finally, with as many as 107 polarized muons in the beam, one has the possibility to use them for nuclear structure studies.","PeriodicalId":240164,"journal":{"name":"Intersections Between Particles and Nuclear Physics","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132625240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is based on renormalizable relativistic quantum field theories of mesons and baryons (quantum hadrodynamics). The relativistic Hartree approximation describes the target using four‐component Dirac wave functions.

This operator is explicitly conserved in the relativistic Hartree approximation and, together with the Hatree wave functions, provides a consistent covariant formalism for electron‐nucleus scattering. Applications of the formalism to elastic charge and magnetic scattering are discussed.","PeriodicalId":240164,"journal":{"name":"Intersections Between Particles and Nuclear Physics","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115711918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
