Fock terms in the quark-meson coupling model
G. Krein, A. W. Thomas, K. Tsushima
The mean field description of nuclear matter in the quark-meson coupling model is improved by the inclusion of exchange contributions (Fock terms). The inclusion of Fock terms allo…
Charmed Mesic Nuclei: Bound D and states with ^{208}Pb
K. Tsushima, D. H. Lu, A. W. Thomas +2
We show that the D^- meson will form narrow bound states with ^{208}Pb. Mean field potentials for the D^0, D^0-bar and D^- in ^{208}Pb are calculated self-consistently using the qu…
Electromagnetic form factors of the bound nucleon
D. H. Lu, K. Tsushima, A. W. Thomas +2
We calculate electromagnetic form factors of the proton bound in specified orbits for several closed shell nuclei. The quark structure of the nucleon and the shell structure of the…
omega-nucleus bound states in the Walecka model
K. Saito, K. Tsushima, D. H. Lu +1
Using the Walecka model, we investigate theoretically whether an omega meson is bound to finite nuclei. We study several nuclei from ^{6}He to ^{208}Pb, and compare the results wit…
Are eta- and omega-nuclear states bound ?
K. Tsushima, D. H. Lu, A. W. Thomas +1
We investigate theoretically whether it is feasible to detect - and -nucleus bound states. As well as the closed shell nuclei, O, Ca, Zr and Pb,…
Sigma and omega meson propagation in a dense nuclear medium
K. Saito, K. Tsushima, AW Thomas +1
The propagation of the scalar () and vector () mesons in nuclear matter is studied in detail using the Walecka model over a wide range of densities and including the effects…
