We report a measurement of the differential cross section for the γn →π⁻p process from the CLAS detector at Jefferson Laboratory in Hall B for photon energies between 1.0 and 3.5 GeV and pion center-of-mass (c.m.) angles (𝜃 _c.m.) between 50° and 115°. We confirm a previous indication of a broad enhancement around a c.m. energy (√ s) of 2.1 GeV at 𝜃_c.m. = 90° in the scaled differential cross section s^{7 dσ}_dt and a rapid falloff in a center-of-mass energy region of about 400 MeV following the enhancement. Our data show an angular dependence of …

Conformal Kernel For The Next-To-Leading-Order Bfkl Equation In 𝒩 = 4 Super Yang-Mills Theory, Ian Balitsky, Giovanni A. Chirilli

Physics Faculty Publications

Using the requirement of Möbius invariance of 𝒩 = 4 super Yang-Mills amplitudes in the Regge limit, we restore the explicit form of the conformal next-to-leading-order Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) kernel out of the eigenvalues known from the forward next-to-leading-order BFKL result.

Measurement Of Semi-Inclusive Π+ Electroproduction Off The Proton, Clas Collaboration, M. J. Amaryan, H. Bagdasaryan, M. Bektasoglu, S. Bültmann, K. V. Dharmawardane, G. E. Dodge, G. Gavalian, N. Guler, C. E. Hyde-Wright, A. Klein, A. V. Klimenko, S. E. Kuhn, M. R. Niroula, L. M. Qin, L. B. Weinstein, J. Zhang

Physics Faculty Publications

Semi-inclusive π+ electroproduction on protons has been measured with the CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab. The measurement was performed on a liquid-hydrogen target using a 5.75 GeV electron beam. The complete five-fold differential cross sections were measured over a wide kinematic range including the complete range of azimuthal angles between hadronic and leptonic planes, ϕ , enabling us to separate the ϕ-dependent terms. Our measurements of the ϕ -independent term of the cross section at low Bjorken x were found to be in fairly good agreement with pQCD calculations. Indeed, the conventional current fragmentation calculation can account for almost all …

Photodisintegration Of 4He Into P+T, Clas Collaboration, M. J. Amaryan, S. L. Careccia, G. E. Dodge, C. E. Hyde, S. E. Kuhn, M. Mayer, C. S. Nepali, M. R. Niroula, H. Seraydaryan, S. Tkachenko, L.B. Weinstein, J. Zhang

Physics Faculty Publications

The two-body photodisintegration of 4He into a proton and a triton has been studied using the CEBAF Large-Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. Real photons produced with the Hall-B bremsstrahlung-tagging system in the energy range from 0.35 to 1.55 GeV were incident on a liquid ⁴He target. This is the first measurement of the photodisintegration of ⁴He above 0.4 GeV. The differential cross sections for the γ ⁴He →pt reaction were measured as a function of photon-beam energy and proton-scattering angle and are compared with the latest model calculations by J.-M. Laget. At …

Electroexcitation Of Nucleon Resonances From Clas Data On Single Pion Electroproduction, Clas Collaboration, K. P. Adhikari, S. L. Careccia, T. A. Forest, C. E. Hyde, A. Klein, S. E. Kuhn, M. Mayer, C. S. Nepali, M. R. Niroula, H. Seraydaryan

Physics Faculty Publications

We present results on the electroexcitation of the low mass resonances Δ(1232)P₃₃ , N(1440)P₁₁ , N(1520)D₁₃ , and N(1535)S₁₁ in a wide range of Q². The results were obtained in the comprehensive analysis of data from the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) large acceptance spectrometer (CLAS) detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) on differential cross sections, longitudinally polarized beam asymmetries, and longitudinal target and beam-target asymmetries for π electroproduction off the proton. The data were analyzed using two conceptually different approaches—fixed-t dispersion relations and a unitary isobar model—allowing us to …

Electroproduction Of P Π⁺Π⁻ Off Protons At 0.2 < Q² < 0.6 Gev² And 1.3 < W < 1.57 Gev With The Clas Detector, M. J. Amaryan, H. Baghdasaryan, M. Bektasoglu, S. Bültmann, S. L. Careccia, G. E.

This paper reports on the most comprehensive data set obtained on differential and fully integrated cross sections for the process ep → e'pπ⁺π^-. The data were collected with the CLAS detector at Jefferson Laboratory. Measurements were carried out in the as yet unexplored kinematic region of photon virtuality 0.2 < Q² < 0.6 GeV² and invariant mass of the final hadron system W from 1.3 to 1.57 GeV. For the first time, nine independent one-fold differential cross sections were determined in each bin of W and Q² covered by the measurements. A phenomenological analysis of the data allowed …

Search For The Photoexcitation Of Exotic Mesons In The Π+Π+Π- System, Clas Collaboration, M. J. Amaryan, H. Bagdasaryan, S. Bektasoglu, S. Bültmann, G. E. Dodge, G. Gavalian, N. Guler, C. E. Hyde-Wright, N. Kalantarians, A. Klein, S. E. Kuhn, J. Lachniet, M. R. Niroula, L. M. Qin, S. Tkachenko, L. B. Weinstein, J. Zhang

Physics Faculty Publications

A search for exotic mesons in the π⁺π⁺π⁻ system photoproduced by the charge exchange reaction γp→π⁺π⁺π⁻(n) was carried out by the CLAS Collaboration at Jefferson Lab. A tagged-photon beam with energies in the 4.8 to 5.4 GeV range, produced through bremsstrahlung from a 5.744 GeV electron beam, was incident on a liquid-hydrogen target. A partial wave analysis was performed on a sample of 83 000 events, the highest such statistics to date in this reaction at these energies. The main objective of this study was to look for the …

Superfluid Turbulence From Quantum Kelvin Wave To Classical Kolmogorov Cascades, Jeffrey Yepez, George Vahala, Linda L. Vahala, Min Soe

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

The main topological feature of a superfluid is a quantum vortex with an identifiable inner and outer radius. A novel unitary quantum lattice gas algorithm is used to simulate quantum turbulence of a Bose-Einstein condensate superfluid described by the Gross-Pitaevskii equation on grids up to 5760³. For the first time, an accurate power-law scaling for the quantum Kelvin wave cascade is determined: k^-3. The incompressible kinetic energy spectrum exhibits very distinct power-law spectra in 3 ranges of k space: a classical Kolmogorov k^-(5/3) spectrum at scales greater than the outer radius of individual quantum vortex …

Quantum Algorithm For Bose-Einstein Condensate Quantum Fluid Dynamics: Twisting Of Filamentary Vortex Solitons Demarcated By Fast Poincare Recursion, Jeffrey Yepez, George Vahala, Linda L. Vahala

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

The dynamics of vortex solitons is studied in a BEC superfluid. A quantum lattice-gas algorithm (measurementbased quantum computation) is employed to examine the dynamical behavior vortex soliton solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation (ø⁴ interaction nonlinear Schroedinger equation). Quantum turbulence is studied in large grid numerical simulations: Kolmogorov spectrum associated with a Richardson energy cascade occurs on large flow scales. At intermediate scales, a new k^-6 power law emerges, due to vortex filamentary reconnections associated with Kelvin wave instabilities (vortex twisting) coupling to sound modes and the exchange of intermediate vortex rings. Finally, at very small spatial scales a …

Comparative Study Of Forward And Diffusely Scattered Light In A Coherently Prepared Ultracold Rubidium Gas, Rocio Gisel Olave Gonzalez

Physics Theses & Dissertations

A comparison between forward and diffusely scattered light propagating in a coherently prepared ultracold ⁸⁷Rb atomic vapor is presented. This research is part of the ongoing effort to characterize the processes, such as diffusion, that contribute to coherence loss in atomic media under conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency, for applications in realistic systems. Toward this end, a magneto optical trap (MOT) of ⁸⁷Rb has been built, and the atomic vapor sample characterized in terms of atomic density, shape and size, temperature, and optical depth. Next, two co-propagating beams were sent through the sample, to establish an electromagnetically induced …
