Heavy Quark Spin Multiplet Structure of P PHYSICAL REVIEW D 98, 014021 (2018) Heavy quark spin multiplet structure of ¯ ðÞΣðÞ molecular states P Q † ‡ Yuki Shimizu,1,* Yasuhiro Yamaguchi,2, and Masayasu Harada1, 1Department of Physics, Nagoya University, Nagoya 464-8602, Japan 2Theoretical Research Division, Nishina Center, RIKEN, Hirosawa, Wako, Saitama 351-0198, Japan (Received 24 May 2018; published 16 July 2018) We study the structure of heavy quark spin (HQS) multiplets for heavy meson-baryon molecular ¯ ðÞΣðÞ states in a coupled system of P Q , constructing the one-pion exchange potential with S-wave orbital angular momentum. Using the light cloud spin basis, we find that there are four types of HQS multiplets classified by the structure of heavy quark spin and light cloud spin. The multiplets which have attractive potential are determined by the sign of the coupling constant for the heavy meson-pion interactions. Furthermore, the difference in the structure of the light cloud spin gives the restrictions of the decay channel, which implies that the partial decay width has the information for the structure of HQS multiplets. This behavior is more likely to appear in the hidden-bottom sector than in the hidden- charm sector. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevD.98.014021 I.

SYMMETRY BREAKING Abstract by Smarajit Triambak This dissertation describes two high-precision measurements concerning isospin symmetry breaking in nuclei. 1. We determined, with unprecedented accuracy and precision, the excitation energy of the lowest T = 2; J ¼ = 0+ state in 32S using the 31P(p; γ) reaction. This excitation energy, together with the ground state mass of 32S, provides the most stringent test of the isobaric multiplet mass equation (IMME) for the A = 32, T = 2 multiplet. We observe a signi¯cant disagreement with the IMME and investigate the possibility of isospin mixing with nearby 0+ levels to cause such an e®ect. In addition, as byproducts of this work, we present a precise determination of the relative γ-branches and an upper limit on the isospin violating branch from the lowest T = 2 state in 32S. 2. We obtained the superallowed branch for the 0+ 0+ Fermi decay of ! 32Ar. This involved precise determinations of the beta-delayed proton and γ branches. The γ-ray detection e±ciency calibration was done using pre- cisely determined γ-ray yields from the daughter 32Cl nucleus from an- other independent measurement using a fast tape-transport system at Texas Smarajit Triambak A&M University.

This process is the simplest weak interaction process on a nucleus that can both be calculated and measured to a high degree of precision. The measurement will provide a benchmark result, far more precise than any current experimental information on weak interaction processes in the two-nucleon system. Moreover, it can impact our understanding of fundamental reactions of astrophysical interest, like solar pp fusion and the ν + d reactions observed by the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory.

  • 7. Examples of Magnetic Energy Diagrams. P.1. April 16, 2002 7
    7. Examples of Magnetic Energy Diagrams. There are several very important cases of electron spin magnetic energy diagrams to examine in detail, because they appear repeatedly in many photochemical systems. The fundamental magnetic energy diagrams are those for a single electron spin at zero and high field and two correlated electron spins at zero and high field. The word correlated will be defined more precisely later, but for now we use it in the sense that the electron spins are correlated by electron exchange interactions and are thereby required to maintain a strict phase relationship. Under these circumstances, the terms singlet and triplet are meaningful in discussing magnetic resonance and chemical reactivity. From these fundamental cases the magnetic energy diagram for coupling of a single electron spin with a nuclear spin (we shall consider only couplings with nuclei with spin 1/2) at zero and high field and the coupling of two correlated electron spins with a nuclear spin are readily derived and extended to the more complicated (and more realistic) cases of couplings of electron spins to more than one nucleus or to magnetic moments generated from other sources (spin orbit coupling, spin lattice coupling, spin photon coupling, etc.). Magentic Energy Diagram for A Single Electron Spin and Two Coupled Electron Spins. Zero Field. Figure 14 displays the magnetic energy level diagram for the two fundamental cases of : (1) a single electron spin, a doublet or D state and (2) two correlated electron spins, which may be a triplet, T, or singlet, S state. In zero field (ignoring the electron exchange interaction and only considering the magnetic interactions) all of the magnetic energy levels are degenerate because there is no preferred orientation of the angular momentum and therefore no preferred orientation of the magnetic moment due to spin.

The increased sensitivity and high spectral resolution of millimeter telescopes allow the detection of an increasing number of isotopically substituted molecules in the interstellar medium. The 14N/15N ratio is difficult to measure directly for molecules con- taining carbon. Aims. Using a time-dependent gas-phase chemical model, we check the underlying hypothesis that the 13C/12C ratio of nitriles and isonitriles is equal to the elemental value. Methods. We built a chemical network that contains D, 13C, and 15N molecular species after a careful check of the possible fraction- ation reactions at work in the gas phase. Results. Model results obtained for two different physical conditions that correspond to a moderately dense cloud in an early evolu- tionary stage and a dense, depleted prestellar core tend to show that ammonia and its singly deuterated form are somewhat enriched 15 14 15 + in N, which agrees with observations.

  • 7 2 Singleionanisotropy
    7.2 Dipolar Interactions and Single Ion Anisotropy in Metal Ions Up to this point, we have been making two assumptions about the spin carriers in our molecules: 1. There is no coupling between the 2S+1Γ ground state and some excited state(s) arising from the same free-ion state through the spin-orbit coupling. 2. The 2S+1Γ ground state has no first-order angular momentum. Now, let’s look at how to treat molecules for which the first assumption is not true. In other words, molecules in which we can no longer neglect the coupling between the ground state and some excited state(s) arising from the same free-ion state through spin orbit coupling. For simplicity, we will assume that there is no exchange coupling between magnetic centers, so we are dealing with an isolated molecule with, for example, one paramagnetic metal ion. Recall: Lˆ lˆ is the total electronic orbital momentum operator = ∑ i i Sˆ sˆ is the total electronic spin momentum operator = ∑ i i where the sums run over the electrons of the open shells. *NOTE*: The excited states are assumed to be high enough in energy to be totally depopulated in the temperature range of interest. • This spin-orbit coupling between ground and unpopulated excited states may lead to two phenomena: 1. anisotropy of the g-factor 2. and, if the ground state has a larger spin multiplicity than a doublet (i.e., S > ½), zero-field splitting of the ground state energy levels. • Note that this spin-orbit coupling between the ground state and an unpopulated excited state can be described by λLˆ ⋅ Sˆ .

The application of the Gell-Mann–Okubo mass formulas and SU(3)-symmetric predictions for two-body hadronic decays allows us to successfully catalogue almost all known baryons in twenty-one SU(3) multiplets. In order to have complete multiplets, we predict the existence of several strange particles, most notably the Λ hyperon with J P = 3/2−, the mass around 1850 MeV, the total width approximately 130 MeV, significant branching into the Σπ and Σ(1385)π states and a very small coupling to the NK state.

The readout 1234567890():,; of color center spin states with optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) technology is traditionally based on Stokes excitation, where the energy of the exciting laser is higher than that of the emission photons. Here, we investigate an unconventional approach using anti- Stokes excitation to detect the ODMR signal of silicon vacancy defect spin in silicon carbide, where the exciting laser has lower energy than the emitted photons. Laser power, microwave power and temperature dependence of the anti-Stokes excited ODMR are systematically studied, in which the behavior of ODMR contrast and linewidth is shown to be similar to that of Stokes excitation. However, the ODMR contrast is several times that of the Stokes exci- tation. Coherent control of silicon vacancy spin under anti-Stokes excitation is then realized at room temperature. The spin coherence properties are the same as those of Stokes excitation, but with a signal contrast that is around three times greater. To illustrate the enhanced spin readout contrast under anti-Stokes excitation, we also provide a theoretical model.
