Resolving the discrepancy of 135 MeV pd elastic scattering cross sections and relativistic effects.

Three precise measurements for elastic pd scattering at 135 MeV/A have been performed with the three different experimental setups. The cross sections are described well by the theoretical predictions based on modern nucleon-nucleon forces combined with three-nucleon forces. Relativistic Faddeev calculations show that relativistic effects are restricted to backward angles. This result supports the two measurements recently reported by RIKEN and contradicts the KVI data.

Measurement of the exclusive 3He(e,e'p) reaction below the quasielastic peak.

New, high-precision measurements of the 3He(e,e(')p) reaction using the A1 Collaboration spectrometers at the Mainz microtron MAMI are presented. These were performed in antiparallel kinematics at energy transfers below the quasielastic peak, and at a central momentum transfer of 685 MeV/c. Cross sections and distorted momentum distributions were extracted and compared to theoretical predictions and existing data. The longitudinal and transverse behavior of the cross section was also studied. Sizable differences in the cross-section behavior from theoretical predictions based on the plane wave impulse approximation were observed in both the two- and three-body breakup channels. Full Faddeev-type calculations account for some of the observed excess cross-section, but significant differences remain.

The hypernuclei (4)(lambda)He and (4)(lambda)H: challenges for modern hyperon-nucleon forces.

The hypernuclei (4)(Lambda)He and (4)(Lambda)H provide important information on the hyperon-nucleon interaction. We present accurate Faddeev-Yakubovsky calculations for the Lambda separation energies of the 0(+) ground and the 1(+) excited states based on the Nijmegen SC YN interactions. We explicitly take the Sigma admixture into account. Mass differences of the baryons and the charge dependence of the interaction are considered. The results show that the Nijmegen models cannot predict all separation energies simultaneously hinting to failures of the current interaction models. It is pointed out that the differences of the Lambda separation energies of (4)(Lambda)He and (4)(Lambda)H are interesting observables to probe the YN interaction models.

Precision measurement of the spin-dependent asymmetry in the threshold region of 3He(e, e').

We present the first precision measurement of the spin-dependent asymmetry in the threshold region of 3He(e,e') at Q2 values of 0.1 and 0.2 (GeV/c)2. The agreement between the data and nonrelativistic Faddeev calculations which include both final-state interactions and meson-exchange current effects is very good at Q2 = 0.1 (GeV/c)2, while a small discrepancy at Q2 = 0.2 (GeV/c)2 is observed.

Search for three-nucleon force effects in analyzing powers for p-->d elastic scattering.

A series of measurements have been performed at KVI to obtain the vector analyzing power A(y) of the (2)H(p-->,pd) reaction as a function of incident beam energy at energies of 120, 135, 150, and 170 MeV. For all these measurements, a range of theta(c.m.) from 30 degrees to 170 degrees has been covered. The purpose of these investigations is to observe possible spin-dependent effects beyond two-nucleon forces. When compared to the predictions of Faddeev calculations, based on two-nucleon forces only, significant deviations are observed at all energies and at center-of-mass angles between 70 degrees and 130 degrees. The addition of present-day three-nucleon forces does not improve the description of the data, demonstrating the still insufficient understanding of the properties of three-nucleon systems.

Three- and four-nucleon systems from chiral effective field theory.

Recently developed chiral nucleon-nucleon (NN) forces at next-to-leading order (NLO), that describe NN phase shifts up to about 100 MeV fairly well, have been applied to 3N and 4N systems. Faddeev-Yakubovsky equations have been solved rigorously. The resulting 3N and 4N binding energies are in the same range as found using standard NN potentials. In addition, low-energy 3N scattering observables are very well reproduced as for standard NN forces. The long-standing A(y) puzzle is absent at NLO. The cutoff dependence of the scattering observables is rather weak.

Evidence for a three-nucleon-force effect in proton-deuteron elastic scattering.

Developments in spin-polarized internal targets for storage rings have permitted measurements of 197 MeV polarized protons scattering from vector polarized deuterons. This work presents measurements of the polarization observables A(y), iT11, and C(y,y) in proton-deuteron elastic scattering. When compared to calculations with and without three-nucleon forces, the measurements provide further evidence that three-nucleon forces make a contribution to the observables. This work indicates that three-body forces derived from static nuclear properties appear to be crucial to the description of dynamical properties.
