CVC in Particle Physics
A. W. Thomas
We review the hypothesis of the conserved vector current (CVC) within the Standard Model. In addition to the classic tests, such as pion beta decay and neutrino scattering, we ment…
Variation of hadron masses in finite nuclei
Koichi Saito, Kazuo Tsushima, Anthony W. Thomas
Using a self-consistent, Hartree description for both infinite nuclear matter and finite nuclei based on a relativistic quark model (the quark-meson coupling model), we investigate…
Polarized Deep-Inelastic Scattering from Nuclei -- A Relativistic Approach
G. Piller, W. Melnitchouk, A. W. Thomas
A covariant formulation of spin-dependent deep-inelastic scattering from nuclei is presented. In the relativistic impulse approximation the inclusive nuclear cross section is descr…
Probing Charge-Symmetry-Violating Quark Distributions in Semi-Inclusive Leptoproduction of Hadrons
J. T. Londergan, Alex Pang, A. W. Thomas
Recent experiments by the HERMES group at HERA are measuring semi-inclusive electroproduction of pions from deuterium. We point out that by comparing the production of and $π…
Neutron/Proton Structure Function Ratio at Large x
W. Melnitchouk, A. W. Thomas
We re-examine the large-x neutron/proton structure function ratio extracted from the latest deuteron data, taking into account the most recent developments in the treatment of Ferm…
A New Hypothesis on the Origin of the Three Generations
S. D. Bass, A. W. Thomas
We suggest that the Standard Model may undergo a supercritical transition near the Landau scale, where the U(1) gauge boson couples to the left and right handed states of any given…
