Nuclear spinodal instabilities are investigated in non-relativistic and relativistic stochastic mean-field approaches for charge asymmetric and charge symmetric nuclear matter. Quantum statistical effect on the growth of instabilities are calculated in non-relativistic approach. Due to quantal effects, in both symmetric and asymmetric matter, dominant unstable modes shift towards longer wavelengths and modes with wave numbers larger than the Fermi momentum are strongly suppressed. As a result of quantum statistical effects, in particular at lower temperatures, amplitude of density fluctuations grows larger than those calculated in semi-classical approximation. Relativistic calculations in the semi-classical limit are compared with the results of non-relativistic calculations based on Skyrme-type effective interactions under similar conditions. A qualitative difference appears in the unstable response of the system: the system exhibits most unstable behavior at higher baryon densities around $\rho_{B}=0.4 \rho_{0}$ in the relativistic approach while most unstable behavior occurs at lower baryon densities around $\rho_{B}=0.2 \rho_{0}$ in the non-relativistic calculations.

Scalar mesons in radiative phi-meson decays into charged k-meson states Öztürk, Fahri; Gökalp, Ahmet; Department of Physics (2008) The role of $f_{0}(980)$ and $a_{0}(980)$ scalar meson intermediate states in the mechanism of radiative $\phi (1020)$ meson decay into two charged $K (494)$ mesons and a photon $\phi\rightarrow K^{+} + K^{-} + \gamma$ is investigated. For the contribution of scalar meson intermediate state two models are considered. In the kaon-loop model, the scalar meson intermediate state couples the final state to the initial $\phi$ meson through a charged kaon-loop. The second model, called no-structure model, consist...
Real-time benchtop NMR spectroscopy for the online monitoring of sucrose hydrolysis Soyler, Alper; Bouillaud, Dylan; Farjon, Jonathan; Giraudeau, Patrick; Öztop, Halil Mecit (Elsevier BV, 2020-01-01) The online monitoring of chemical reactions by using benchtop Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has become increasingly attractive for the past few years. The use of quantitative online NMR spectroscopy is a promising alternative to traditional analytical methods with its rapid, quantitative and non-invasive nature that makes it applicable to complex and diverse biochemical mixtures like food systems. In this study, sucrose hydrolysis by invertase was chosen as a model reaction for online monito...
Spinodal instabilities in nuclear matter in a stochastic relativistic mean-field approach Ayik, S.; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül; Er, N.; Gokalp, A.; Ring, P. (American Physical Society (APS), 2009-09-01) Spinodal instabilities and early growth of baryon density fluctuations in symmetric nuclear matter are investigated in the basis of the stochastic extension of the relativistic mean-field approach in the semiclassical approximation. Calculations are compared with the results of nonrelativistic calculations based on Skyrme-type effective interactions under similar conditions. A qualitative difference appears in the unstable response of the system: the system exhibits most unstable behavior at higher baryon d...
Nuclear modification factor of D-0 mesons in PbPb collisions at root s(NN)=5.02 TeV Sirunyan, A. M.; et. al. (Elsevier BV, 2018-07-01) The transverse momentum (p(T)) spectrum of prompt D-0 mesons and their antiparticles has been measured via the hadronic decay channels D-0 -> K- pi(+) and (D) over bar (0) -> K+ pi(-) in pp and PbPb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV per nucleon pair with the CMS detector at the LHC. The measurement is performed in the D-0 meson p(T) range of 2-100GeV/c and in the rapidity range of vertical bar y vertical bar < 1. The pp (PbPb) dataset used for this analysis corresponds to an integrated lumin...
Neutron electric form factor at large momentum transfer Tomasi-Gustafsson, E; Rekalo, MP (IOP Publishing, 2001-07-01) Based on the recent, high-precision data for elastic electron scattering from protons and deuterons, at relatively large momentum transfer Q(2), we determine the neutron electric form factor up to Q(2) = 3.5 GeV2. The values obtained from the data ( in the framework of the nonrelativistic impulse approximation) are larger than commonly assumed and are in good agreement with the Gari-Krumpelmann parametrization of the nucleon electromagnetic form factors.
