Self energies of the pion and the Δ isobar from the 3He(e,e′π+)3H reaction

Abstract: In a kinematically complete experiment at the Mainz microtron MAMI, pion angular distributions of the 3 He(e,e'π + ) 3 H reaction have been measured in the excitation Preprint submitted to Elsevier Science 28 April 2018 region of the ∆ resonance to determine the longitudinal (L), transverse (T ), and the LT interference part of the differential cross section. The data are described only after introducing self-energy modifications of the pion and ∆-isobar propagators. Using Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) to … Show more

“…There are strong hints from the empirical photon nucleus absorption cross section as well as from pion-nucleus scattering data that the low-lying nucleon and delta resonances do change their properties in nuclear matter substantially already at nuclear saturation density [15,16,17,18,19,20]. Recent data on electroproduction of isobars off helium three [21] are interpreted in terms of a repulsive in-medium mass change and an increased decay width of the isobar-resonance [21]. Since most nucleon and isobar resonances have a substantial decay fraction into one nucleon and one pion, the in-medium resonance structure reflects to a large extent the medium modified propagation properties of pions.…”

“…The phenomenological spreading potential [1] suggests a small repulsive mass shift of the isobar together with an increase of its width. Also recent data on electroproduction of isobars off helium three appear consistent with the latter interpretation [3]. With the exceptions [5,11,14] model computations of the isobar self energy claim results compatible with a small repulsive mass shift.…”

“…There is empirical evidence from photon nucleus absorption cross sections that the delta resonance changes its properties in nuclear matter substantially already at nuclear saturation density [1,2,3]. The microscopic description of the isobar self energy is a challenge taken up by various groups [4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16].…”
