Single-particle resonances in a deformed Dirac equation
Single-particle bound and resonant states are obtained by solving the Dirac equation with quadrupole-deformed Woods-Saxon potential in coordinate space with the coupled-channel approach. Taking the m{sup {pi}}=1/2{sup +} resonant states at deformation {beta}=0.1 as examples, the roles of their spherical components have been investigated based on the behaviors of the eigenphases and the corresponding probabilities weighted by the scalar spherical potential. It is shown that the realization of the m{sup {pi}}=1/2{sup +} resonances is supported mainly by the lnot =0 components, and the mixture of the s{sub 1/2} component can lead to the disappearance of some resonances at finite energy. The dominance of the lnot =0 component (d{sub 3/2}) in the small-energy region guarantees the continuation of a certain resonance to the corresponding bound state.

Effect of time-odd mean fields on inertial parameters of the quadrupole collective Hamiltonian
Most current implementations of the quadrupole collective Hamiltonian model do not include the contributions of time-odd mean fields to the moments of inertia and mass parameters (Thouless-Valatin dynamical rearrangement contributions). A hybrid model is introduced that allows a quantitative estimate of these contributions to the inertial functions of a five- dimensional collective Hamiltonian based on microscopic energy density functionals. Fully self-consistent constrained relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov calculations of triaxial energy surfaces in the β−γ plane are used to determine the parameters of an equivalent pairing-plus-quadrupole (P+Q) Hamiltonian. This Hamiltonian is employed in constrained Hartree-Fock- Bogoliubov (CHFB) plus local quasiparticle random-phase approximation (LQRPA) calculation of the deformation- dependent corrections to the Inglis-Belyaev moments of inertia and cranking mass parameters. This hybrid model is used to evaluate the influence of time-odd mean fields on vibrational and rotational collective masses and investigate their effect on the low-energy collective excitation spectra and transition rates of γ-soft Xe and Ba nuclei.

The Kaon-Photoproduction Of Nucleons In The Chiral Quark Model
In this paper, we develop a general framework to study the mesonphotoproductions of nucleons in the chiral quark model. The S and U channel resonance contributions are expressed in terms of the ChewGoldberger-Low-Nambu (CGLN) amplitudes. The kaon-photoproduction processes, γp → K+Λ, γp → K+Σ0, and γp → K0Σ+, are calculated. The initial results show that the quark model provides a much improved description of the reaction mechanism for the kaon-photoproductions of the nucleon with less parameters than the traditional phenomenological approaches.

Longitudinal transitions of baryon resonances in the constituent quark model
A longitudinal transition operator that satisfies the gauge invariance requirement is introduced in the constituent quark model. The corresponding longitudinal transitions from the ground state of the nucleon to resonances of the baryon are calculated. The study shows that the longitudinal coupling plays an important role in the understanding of the structure of the baryon.

Octupole degree of freedom for nuclei near 152Sm in a reflection-asymmetric relativistic mean-field approach
The potential energy surfaces of even-even isotopes near 152Sm are investigated within the constrained reflection-asymmetric relativistic mean-field approach using parameter sets PK1 and NL3. It is shown that the critical-point candidate nucleus 152Sm marks the shape/phase transition not only from U(5) to SU(3) symmetry, but also from the octupole deformed ground state in 150Sm to the quadrupole deformed ground state in 154Sm. The important role of the octupole deformation driving pair (?2f7/2, ?1i13/2) is demonstrated based on the components of the single-particle levels near the Fermi surface. In addition, the patterns of both the proton and the neutron octupole deformation driving pairs (?2f7/2, ?1i13/2) and (?2d5/2, ?1h11/2) are investigated.

Temperature dependence of single-particle properties in nuclear matter
The single-nucleon potential in hot nuclear matter is investigated in the framework of the Brueckner theory by adopting the realistic Argonne V{sub 18} or Nijmegen 93 two-body nucleon-nucleon interaction supplemented by a microscopic three-body force. The rearrangement contribution to the single-particle potential induced by the ground state correlations is calculated in terms of the hole-line expansion of the mass operator and provides a significant repulsive contribution in the low-momentum region around and below the Fermi surface. Increasing temperature leads to a reduction of the effect, while increasing density makes it become stronger. The three-body force suppresses somewhat the ground state correlations due to its strong short-range repulsion, increasing with density. Inclusion of the three-body force contribution results in a quite different temperature dependence of the single-particle potential at high enough densities as compared to that adopting the pure two-body force. The effects of three-body force and ground state correlations on the nucleon effective mass are also discussed.

Covariant Description of the Δ in Relativistic Transport Theory
We have derived the relativistic Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck equation for delta distribution function based on the same effective Lagrangian in which we derive the equation of nucleon. The equations of nucleon and delta are coupled with each other through self-energy terms and should be solved simultaneously.

Effect of the splitting of the neutron and proton effective masses on the nuclear symmetry energy at finite temperatures
Abstract We present the temperature and density dependence of symmetry energy for nuclear matter at finite temperatures based on the thermodynamics approach with the Skyrme energy density functional. We first classify the Skyrme interactions into 7 groups according to their ranges of the variation of neutron and proton effective masses with densities in neutron matter limit (99.99 percent neutron in the matter). We find that there is an obvious correlation between the temperature dependence of the symmetry energy and the splitting of neutron and proton effective mass. For the Skyrme interactions with m n ⁎ > m p ⁎ and the strong neutron and proton effective mass splitting in asymmetric nuclear matter, a transition of symmetry energy from decreasing with temperature at low densities to increasing with temperature at high densities appears. For other Skyrme interactions, we do not observe this phenomenon and the symmetry energy decreases with temperature in the entire density region.

B -> K*gamma in the light-cone QCD sum rule
A new estimate of the electromagnetic penguin operator contribution to B-->K*gamma is proposed by using the light-cone QCD sum rule. We improve the previous investigation of Ali, Braun and Simma by proper choices of the current operators in the correlator. The reasonable estimates of the b-quark pole mass m(b) and decay constant f(B) are also given. Numerically, we find that the form factor FB-->K*(0) = 0.34 +/- 0.05 and the branching ratio B(B-->K*gamma) = (5.1 +/- 1.7) X 10(-5), with a b-quark pole mass m(b) = 4.7-4.9 GeV. Our results are different from those of Ali et al., but the resulting branching ratio is still comparable with the experimental observation.
