Meson-Exchange Currents in pp-Bremsstrahlung

Nuclear Theory 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

The long-standing discrepancy between pp-bremsstrahlung data and calculations based on the relativistic impulse approximation current is substantially reduced by the inclusion of the PVγ\gamma and intermediate-state Δ\Delta-resonance iso-scalar meson-exchange currents. The success of the standard procedures adopted here shows that pp-bremsstrahlung provides a powerful tool for the further study of TT=1 isoscalar exchange currents. The need for addition high-precision data is stressed.
