Corrections to the Nuclear Axial Vector Coupling in a Nuclear Medium
G. W. Carter, E. M. Henley
We examine further corrections to the time component of the axial vector coupling constant in a nuclear medium. The dominant correction is that of exchange currents. The correction…
The Quenching of the Axial Coupling in Nuclear and Neutron-Star Matter
G. W. Carter, M. Prakash
Using a chirally invariant effective Lagrangian, we calculate the density and isospin dependences of the in-medium axial coupling, , in spatially uniform matter present in c…
An Effective Model for Hot Gluodynamics
G. W. Carter, O. Scavenius, I. N. Mishustin +1
We consider an effective Lagrangian containing contributions from glueball and gluon degrees of freedom with a scale-invariant coupling between the two. The thermodynamic potential…
An Effective Lagrangian with Broken Scale and Chiral Symmetry IV: Nucleons and Mesons at Finite Temperature
G. W. Carter, P. J. Ellis
We study the finite temperature properties of an effective chiral Lagrangian which describes nuclear matter. Thermal fluctuations in both the nucleon and the meson fields are consi…
An Effective Lagrangian with Broken Scale and Chiral Symmetry III: Mesons at Finite Temperature
G. W. Carter, P. J. Ellis, S. Rudaz
We investigate the finite temperature behavior of the meson sector of an effective Lagrangian which describes nuclear matter. A method is developed for evaluating the logarithmic t…
An Effective Lagrangian with Broken Scale and Chiral Symmetry II: Pion Phenomenology
G. Carter, P. J. Ellis, S. Rudaz
We extend an effective Lagrangian embodying broken scale and chiral symmetry to include explicit chiral symmetry breaking and an additional chiral invariant term which allows for a…
