A Poincaré-covariant study of strange quark stars

Hao-Ran Zhang, Bo-Lin Li, Zhu-Fang Cui

We investigate the properties of dense quark matter and strange quark stars within a nonperturbative, Poincaré-covariant framework. Employing a symmetry-preserving vector$\,\otimes…

Crossover or First-Order: Impacts of Regularization

Xin-Peng Li, Hao-Ran Zhang, Zhu-Fang Cui +1

The equation of state of hot, dense nuclear matter plays a fundamental role in many areas. However, owing to the nonperturbative nature of strong interactions, a reliable treatment…

Kaon and Pion Fragmentation Functions

Hui-Yu Xing, Wen-Hao Bian, Zhu-Fang Cui +1

The Drell-Levy-Yan relation is employed to obtain pion and kaon elementary fragmentation functions (EFFs) from the hadron-scale parton distribution functions (DFs) of these mesons.…

Pion, Kaon and nucleon gravitational form factors

Zhao-Qian Yao, Yin-Zhen Xu, Daniele Binosi +5

A unified set of predictions for pion, kaon and nucleon gravitational form factors is obtained using a symmetry-preserving truncation of each relevant quantum field equation. A cru…

Pion Boer-Mulders function using a contact interaction

Dan-Dan Cheng, Zhu-Fang Cui, Minghui Ding +2

A symmetry preserving treatment of a vector vector contact interaction (SCI) is used as the basis for calculations of the two pion transverse momentum dependent parton di…

photoproduction: threshold to very high energy

Lin Tang, Yi-Xuan Yang, Zhu-Fang Cui +1

A reaction model for photoproduction, which exposes the content of the photon in making the transition and couples t…

Nucleon charge and magnetisation distributions: flavour separation and zeroes

Zhao-Qian Yao, Daniele Binosi, Zhu-Fang Cu +1

A symmetry-preserving truncation of the quantum field equations describing hadron properties is used to deliver parameter-free predictions for all nucleon elastic electromagnetic f…

All-Orders Evolution of Parton Distributions: Principle, Practice, and Predictions

Pei-Lin Yin, Yin-Zhen. XuID, Zhu-Fang Cui +2

Parton distribution functions (DFs) are defining expressions of hadron structure. Exploiting the role of effective charges in quantum chromodynamics, an algebraic scheme is describ…

Pauli radius of the proton

Zhu-Fang Cui, Daniele Binosi, Craig D. Roberts +1

Using a procedure based on interpolation via continued fractions supplemented by statistical sampling, we analyse proton magnetic form factor data obtained via electron+proton scat…

Higgs modulation of emergent mass as revealed in kaon and pion parton distributions

Zhu-Fang Cui, Minghui Ding, Fei Gao +6

Strangeness was discovered roughly seventy years ago, lodged in a particle now known as the kaon, . Kindred to the pion, ; both states are massless in the absence of Higgs-bo…
