Symmetry Breaking for Rho Meson in Neutron Matter

Nuclear Theory 2009-10-28 v1 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

Qualitative changes in the collective excitation spectra of the ρ\rho-meson triplet in neutron matter is studied, with particular emphasis on the breaking of the discrete pnp\leftrightarrow n symmetry. The appearance of additional branches in the dispersion characteristics, the mass splitting among the charge states, the splitting between longitudinal and transverse modes of the ρ±\rho^{\pm} mesons and the appearance of `island' modes (or loops) in the time-like region are some of the features that are exposed.
