摘要:

量子力学是超周边碰撞(UPCs)中相干光生过程的核心。本报告将讨论由这些量子力学根源所导致的UPCs的一些令人惊讶的方面。Good-Walker(GW)范式将相干光生与靶核保持在基态联系起来。这与半经典图像形成对比,在半经典图像中,相干性取决于单个核子的位置和动量转移。与GW方法不同,半经典图像与伴随核解离的相干光生以及周边碰撞中的相干光生的观测数据相一致。半经典方法允许更广泛种类的相干UPC反应,例如带电介子的相干光生,包括一些非$q\overline q$奇特态。量子力学也是单个离子对相互作用相干光生多重矢量介子的关键。这些矢量介子共享共同的碰撞参数,因此可以表现出比单个介子更丰富的干涉图样。在前向快度区,由于超辐射,产生多个全同矢量介子的截面得到增强。在足够的统计量下,多介子事件可能为观测受激衰变提供机会。

英文摘要:

Quantum mechanics is central to coherent photoproduction in ultra-peripheral collisions (UPCs). This writeup will discuss some surprising aspects of UPCs that stem from these quantum mechanical roots. The Good-Walker (GW) paradigm, which connects coherent photoproduction with the target nucleus remaining in its ground state. This contrasts with a semi-classical picture, where coherence depends on the positions of the individual nucleons and the momentum transfer. Unlike the GW approach, the semiclassical picture is consistent with the observed data on coherent photoproduction with nuclear breakup, and with coherent photoproduction in peripheral collisions. The semiclassical approach allows for a wider variety of coherent UPC reactions, such as coherent photoproduction of charged mesons, including some non $q\overline q$ exotica. Quantum mechanics is also key to the coherent photoproduction of multiple vector mesons by the interactions of a single ion pair. The vector mesons share a common impact parameter, and so can exhibit richer interference patterns than single mesons. At forward rapidities, the cross sections to produce multiple identical vector mesons are enhanced due to superradiance. With enough statistics, multi-meson events may provide an opportunity to observe stimulated decays.}
