Polarization of the nuclear medium and RPA-type calculations in $K^+$ scattering from nuclei

Nuclear Theory 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

In the calculation of the K+K^+-nucleus cross sections, the coupling of the mesons exchanged between the K+K^+ and the target nucleons to the polarization of the Fermi sea has been taken into account. This polarization has been calculated in the one-loop approximation but summed up to all orders (RPA-type calculation). This effect is found to be rather important but does not improve the agreement with experiment.
