The glueball propagator is here evaluated by using the linear response theory for the composite external glueball field. As a result, a finite glueball mass is obtained through the interaction between two massless gluons, in which the glueball mass depends on the QCD coupling constant g in the nonperturbative form.","PeriodicalId":49658,"journal":{"name":"Progress of Theoretical Physics","volume":"128 1","pages":"373-396"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1143/PTP.128.373","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64015366","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}

Therefore, we study the role of the tensor interaction based on the SHF model, in which we extend it by explicitly introducing two-particle-two-hole (2p-2h) excitations for the treatment of the tensor interaction in symmetric nuclear matter and pure neutron matter. We are able to describe infinite matter very well using the SHF model with tensor corrections. We also discuss the connection between the symmetry energy and the tensor interaction in this framework.

The helium core mass after hydrogen burning corresponds to 32 M� . Nucleosynthesis calculations have been performed during the stellar evolution and the jetlike supernova explosion of a collapsar model. We focus on the production of elements heavier than iron group nuclei. Nucleosynthesis calculations have been accomplished consistently from hydrostatic to dynamic stages by using large nuclear reaction networks, where the weak s-, p-, and r-processes are taken into account. We confirm that s-elements of 60 90 are produced via photodisintegrations of seed s-elements. However, the produced p-elements are disintegrated in later stages except for 180 Ta. In the explosive nucleosynthesis, elements of 90 50) are overproduced via the p-process because of the low peak temperatures in the oxygen- and neon-rich layers. Compared with the previous study of r-process nucleosynthesis calculations in the collapsar model of 40 Mby Fujimoto et al. (S. Fujimoto, M. Hashimoto, K. Kotake and S. Yamada, Astrophys. J. 656 (2007), 382; S. Fujimoto, N. Nishimura and M. Hashimoto, Astrophys. J. 680 (2008), 1350), our jet model cannot contribute to the third peak of the solar r-elements and intermediate p-elements, which have been much produced because of the distribution of the lowest part of electron fraction in the ejecta. Averaging the overproduction factors over the progenitor masses with the use of Salpeter's IMF, we suggest that the 70 Mstar could contribute to the solar weak s-elements of 60 <A< 90 and neutron-rich elements of 90 <A< 160. We confirm the primary synthesis of light p-elements in the ejected matter of high peak temperature. The ejected matter has (Sr/Eu) ∼− 0.4, which is different from that of a typical r-process-enriched star CS22892-052 ((Sr/Eu) ∼− 1).

Thus, in the continuum limit one can analyze the crystal properties using the formalism of quantum electrodynamics in 2+1 dimensions (QED2+1) which provides the opportunity to verify the high energy physics phenomena in the condensed matter system. We study the symmetry properties of 2+1-dimensional Dirac equation, both in the noninteracting case and in the case with constant uniform magnetic field included in the model. The maximal symmetry group of the massless Dirac equation is considered by putting it in the Jordan block form and determining the algebra of operators leaving invariant the subspace of solutions. It is shown that the resulting symmetry operators expressed in terms of Dirac matrices cannot be described exclusively in terms of γ matrices (and their products) entering the corresponding Dirac equation. It is a consequence of the reducibility of the considered representation in contrast to the 3+1-dimensional case. Symmetry algebra is demonstrated to be a direct sum of two gL(2 ,C ) algebras plus an eight-dimensional abelian ideal. Since the matrix structure which determines the rotational symmetry has all required properties of the spin algebra, the pseudospin related to the sublattices (M. Mecklenburg and B. C. Regan, Phys. Rev. Lett. 106 (2011), 116803) gains the character of the real angular momentum, although the degrees of freedom connected with the electron’s spin are not included in the model. This seems to be graphene’s analogue of the phenomenon called “spin from isospin” in high energy physics.
