Kinematical form factors in the peripheral model

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

In potential theory the «vertex functions» for resonance formation contain kinematical form factors, which depend on the spin of the resonance and are simply related to penetration factors. Analogous form factors are introduced for the relativistic vertex functions of the one-pion exchange model. The resulting vertex functions behave like the Born term functions near the pion pole, but go to constants as the momentum transfer goes to infinity, for arbitrary resonance spin. For elastic nucleon-nucleon scattering, the total form factor reduces to a simple pole.

Riassunto

Nella teoria del potenziale, le «funzioni di vertice» per la formazione delle risonanze contengono fattori di forma cinematici, che dipendono dallo spin della risonanza e sono in una relazione semplice con i fattori di penetrazione. Si introducono analoghi fattori di forma per le funzioni di vertice relativistiche del modello a scambio di un pione. Le funzioni di vertice risultanti si comportano come funzioni dei termini di Born vicino al polo del pione, ma tendono ad una costante quando il momento trasferito tende all'infinito, per uno spin della risonanza arbitrario. Per lo scattering nucleone-nucleone elastico, il fattore di forma totale si riduce ad un semplice polo.
