Nucleon resonances

γ p → π+ n

• The nucleon resonance spectrum has many broad

overlapping states, making disentangling the spectrum difficult

Resonance Rating SystemNucleon resonances are rated using stars:* Poor evidence of existence** Fair evidence of existence*** Likely evidence of existence, or certain and properties need work**** Existence is certain and properties well explored

Resonance status for N* and Δ

26 N* states: • 10 with **** • 5 with ***• 8 with **• 3 with *

Nucleon

22 Δ states: • 7 with **** • 3 with ***• 7 with **• 5 with *

• Nearly half the states have only fair or poor evidence!

• Most states need more work to learn details

• Are there missing states?M. Dugger, HADRON, September 2015

Resonances

• Masses, widths, and coupling constants not well known for many resonances

• Many models: quark model, Goldstone-boson exchange, diquark and collective models, instanton-induced interactions, flux-tube models, lattice QCD…

• Big Puzzle: Most models predict

more resonance states than observed

Example: Lattice QCD results for N* resonances

Mass(π) = 524 MeV

Mass(π) = 396 MeV

• Noticeable change as the π mass becomes more realistic

• Number of low-lying states (boxed regions) remains the same for the two π-masses, and is the same as the non-relativistic quark model

Born t-channel

• Born term: nucleon propagator

• t-channel: vector meson propagator

• The ρ0, ω, and φ have same quantum numbers as the photon → Vector Meson Dominance

• The meson-NN coupling can be extracted from the Born term

• 8 helicity states: 4 initial, 2 final → 4∙2 = 8 • Amplitudes are complex but parity symmetry reduces independent numbers to 8• Overall phase unobservable → 7 independent numbers • HOWEVER, not all possible observables are linearly independent and it turns out

that there must be a minimum of 8 observables / experiments

Interpretation of the p π0 π0 data using ρ λ oscillators

M. Dugger, HADRON, September 2015

L=2

L=1

ρ = (x1 – x2)/sqrt(2) Antisymmetric under 1↔2λ = (x1+x2-2x3)/sqrt(6) Symmetric under 1↔2

• If L=2 with both ρ and λ oscillators excited, then there must be an intermediate state

• Resonances where only one oscillator is excited have a much reduced chance to decay into an intermediate resonance

• High mass resonances should have a three-particle component that excludes a simple quark-diquark picture of baryon resonances

V. Sokhoyan, et al., CBELSA/TAPS Collaboration, Eur. Phys. J. A 51, 95 (2015)

Self-analyzing reaction K+ Y (hyperon)

• The weak decay of the hyperon allows the extraction of the hyperon polarization by looking at the decay distribution of the baryon in the hyperon center of mass system:

cos1)(cos 21

YPI

where I is the decay distribution of the baryon, α is the weak decay asymmetry (αΛ= 0.642 and αΣ0 = -⅓ αΛ), and PY is the hyperon polarization.• We can obtain recoil polarization information without a

recoil polarimeter and the reaction is said to be “self-analyzing”

✦ Approximate the axial current as being conserved:

✦ Obtain 2 mN F(q2) = q2G(q2)

✦ Take as q → 0: G(q2) → fπ (1/q2) gπNN , where fπ is the pion decay constant and mπ = 0

✦ Goldberger-Treiman: 2 mN F(0) = f π gπNN , Note: F(0) is the isotriplet axial-vector form factor at q2 = 0

✦ Do the same calculation for the flavor singlet axial current to get:2 mN GA(0) = f gη0NN , where η0 is the unphysical flavor singlet goldstone boson

Why do baryon spectroscopy ?

Continuous spectrum

Absorption spectrum

Emission spectrum

Atomic spectroscopy: H + γ → H* → H + γ

Intensity vs. wavelength

Atomic spectroscopy was a veryuseful tool in determining the quantum description of the atom.

Quantum mechanics for H* → H + γreproduces the observed spectrum

Baryon models must also be tested experimentally
