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.

Beyond the relativistic mean-field approximation. III. Collective Hamiltonian in five dimensions
The framework of relativistic energy density functionals is extended to include correlations related to the restoration of broken symmetries and fluctuations of collective variables. A new implementation is developed for the solution of the eigenvalue problem of a five-dimensional collective Hamiltonian for quadrupole vibrational and rotational degrees of freedom, with parameters determined by constrained self-consistent relativistic mean-field calculations for triaxial shapes. The model is tested in a series of illustrative calculations of potential energy surfaces and the resulting collective excitation spectra and transition probabilities of the chain of even-even gadolinium isotopes.

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.

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.

Dynamical nucleus-nucleus potential at short distances
The dynamical nucleus-nucleus potentials for fusion reactions {sup 40}Ca+{sup 40}Ca, {sup 48}Ca+{sup 208}Pb, and {sup 126}Sn+{sup 130}Te are studied with the improved quantum molecular dynamics model together with the extended Thomas-Fermi approximation for the kinetic energies of nuclei. The obtained fusion barrier for {sup 40}Ca+{sup 40}Ca is in good agreement with the extracted fusion barrier from the measured fusion excitation function, and the depths of the fusion pockets are close to the results of time-dependent Hartree-Fock calculations. The energy dependence of the fusion barrier is also investigated. The fusion pocket becomes shallow for a heavy fusion system and almost disappears for heavy nearly symmetric systems, and the obtained potential at short distances is higher than the adiabatic potential.

Transition to Delta matter from hot, dense nuclear matter within a relativistic mean field formulation of the nonlinear sigma and omega model
An investigation of the transition to $\ensuremath{\Delta}$ matter is performed based on a relativistic mean field formulation of the nonlinear $\ensuremath{\sigma}$ and $\ensuremath{\omega}$ model. We demonstrate that in addition to the $\ensuremath{\Delta}$-meson coupling, the occurrence of the baryon resonance isomer also depends on the nucleon-meson coupling. Our results show that for the favored phenomenological value of ${m}^{*}$ and $K$, the $\ensuremath{\Delta}$ isomer exists at baryon density $\ensuremath{\sim}2$--3${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{0}$ if $\ensuremath{\beta}$=1.31 is adopted. For universal coupling of the nucleon and $\ensuremath{\Delta}$, the $\ensuremath{\Delta}$ density at baryon density $\ensuremath{\sim}2$--3${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{0}$ and temperature $\ensuremath{\sim}0.4$--0.5 fm${}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ is about normal nuclear matter density, which is in accord with a recent experimental finding.

Understanding the X-ray spectrum of anomalous X-ray pulsars and soft gamma-ray repeaters*
Hard X-rays above 10 keV are detected from several anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) and soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs), and different models have been proposed to explain the physical origin within the frame of either a magnetar model or a fallback disk system. Using data from Suzaku and INTEGRAL, we study the soft and hard X-ray spectra of four AXPs/SGRs: 1RXS J170849-400910, 1E 1547.0-5408, SGR 1806-20 and SGR 0501+4516. It is found that the spectra could be well reproduced by the bulk-motion Comptonization (BMC) process as was first suggested by Trumper et al., showing that the accretion scenario could be compatible with Xray emission from AXPs/SGRs. Simulated results from the Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope using the BMC model show that the spectra would have discrepancies from the power-law, especially the cutoff at similar to 200 keV. Thus future observations will allow researchers to distinguish different models of the hard X-ray emission and will help us understand the nature of AXPs/SGRs.

Medium effects on the double Delta production and absorption cross-section
The explicit expressions for calculating the in-medium N+N{r_arrow}{Delta}+{Delta} and {Delta}+{Delta}{r_arrow}N+N cross section have been derived within the framework of the self-consistent relativistic Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck approach in which the deltas and nucleons are treated on an equal footing. The obtained cross sections are consistent with the other integrands of the transport model. The theoretical prediction of the free double-{Delta} production cross section is in good agreement with the experimental data. All the medium effects on the double-{Delta} production and absorption cross section are studied systematically, and strong medium corrections are found. Our numerical results show that it would be important to take the N+N{r_arrow}{Delta}+{Delta} and {Delta}+{Delta}{r_arrow}N+N channel into account in the study of relativistic heavy-ion collisions at intermediate and high energies. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Correlations in Horizontal Branch Oscillations and Break Components in XTE J1701-462 and GX 17+2
We studied the horizontal branch oscillations (HBO) and the band-limited components observed in the power spectra of the transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary XTE J1701-462 and the persistent "Sco-like" Z source GX 17+2. These two components were studied based on the state-resolved spectra. We found that the frequencies of XTE J1701-462 lie on the known correlations (WK and PBK), showing consistency with other types of X-ray binaries (black holes, atoll sources, and millisecond X-ray pulsars). However, GX 17+2 is shifted from the WK correlation like other typical Z sources. We suggest that the WK/PBK main track forms a boundary that separates persistent sources from transient sources. The characteristic frequencies of break and HBO are independent of accretion rate in both sources, though it depends on spectral models. We also report the energy dependence of the HBO and break frequencies in XTE J1701-462 and how the temporal properties change with spectral state in XTE J1701-462 and GX 17+2. We studied the correlation between rms at the break and the HBO frequency. We suggest that HBO and break components for both sources probably arise from a similar physical mechanism: Comptonization emission from the corona. These two components could be caused by the same kind of oscillation in a corona with uneven density, and they could be generated from different areas of the corona. We further suggest that different proportions of the Comptonization component in the total flux cause the different distribution between GX 17+2 and XTE J1701-462 in the rmsbreak-rmsHBO diagram.
