Two-pion production processes, chiral symmetry and NN interaction in the medium

We study the many-body effects in the propagation of the scalar meson in the nuclear medium arising from its coupling to two pion states. We identify the source of the medium effects as the influence of the individual nucleon response arising from their pion clouds. The same modification applies to...

description We study the many-body effects in the propagation of the scalar meson in the nuclear medium arising from its coupling to two pion states. We identify the source of the medium effects as the influence of the individual nucleon response arising from their pion clouds. The same modification applies to the QCD scalar susceptibility. It reflects the reshaping of the scalar strength observed in $2\pi$ production experiments. While large modifications of the $\sigma $ propagator occur, we show that the NN scalar potential remains instead unaffected.

We identify the source of the medium effects as the influence of the individual nucleon response arising from their pion clouds. The same modification applies to the QCD scalar susceptibility. It reflects the reshaping of the scalar strength observed in $2\pi$ production experiments. While large modifications of the $\sigma $ propagator occur, we show that the NN scalar potential remains instead unaffected.We study the two-pion propagator in the nuclear medium. This quantity appears in the $\pi-\pi$ T-matrix and we show that it also enters the QCD scalar susceptibility. The medium effects on this propagator are due to the influence of the individual nucleon response to a scalar field through their pion clouds. This response is appreciably increased by the nuclear environment. It produces an important convergence effect between the scalar and pseudoscalar susceptibilities, reflecting the reshaping of the scalar strengh observed in $2\pi$ production experiments. While a large modification of the $\sigma$ propagator follows, due to its coupling to two pion states, we show that the NN potential remains instead unaffected.nucl-th/0406003LYCEN-2004-08LYCEN-2004-08oai:cds.cern.ch:7389082004-06-01
