The present work is an extension of a previous study of the nucleon-nucleon interaction based on the chromo-dielectric soliton model. The former approach was static, leading to an adiabatic potential. Here we perform a dynamical study in…
We analyse the interplay between nucleon-nucleon potentials deduced from chiral perturbation theory and a coarse grained representation of the short distance interactions by delta-shells potentials below a certain cut-off distance. While we…
We present an approach to derive effective shell-model interactions from microscopic nuclear forces. The similarity-transformed coupled-cluster Hamiltonian decouples the single-reference state of a closed-shell nucleus and provides us with…
We investigate higher baryon-number states in the Chiral Quark Soliton Model using the rational map ansatz for the background chiral fields. The soliton solutions are obtained self-consistently. We show that the baryon number density has…
We give a brief review of developments in the field of exotic hadrons formed of more than three quarks and/or antiquarks. In particular we discuss the stability of multiquark systems containing heavy flavours. We show that the gluon…
We study the interaction between two B = 1 states in the Chiral Dilaton Model where baryons are described as non-topological solitons arising from the interaction of chiral mesons and quarks. By using the hedgehog solution for the B = 1…
We discuss contributions of chiral bosons to baryon spectra in the MIT bag model. It is believed that within hadrons, chiral bosons are degrees of freedom which are independent of gluons to provide strong interactions between quarks. In the…
Modifications to the nucleon electric polarizability induced by pion and sigma exchange in the q-q potentials are studied by means of sum rule techniques within a non-relativistic quark model. Contributions from meson exchange interactions…
Semi-inclusive deep inelastic lepton scattering off few-nucleon systems is investigated assuming that virtual boson absorption occurs on a hadronic cluster which can be either a two-nucleon correlated pair or a six-quark bag. In both cases…
The standard way to demonstrate the relevance of chiral symmetry for the NN interaction is to consider higher partial waves of NN scattering which are controlled entirely by chiral pion-exchanges (since contacts vanish). However, in…
We discuss the use of cutoff methods in chiral perturbation theory. We develop a cutoff scheme based on the operator structure of the effective field theory that allows to suppress high momentum contributions in Goldstone boson loop…
We present a study of proton and neutron electromagnetic form factors for the recently proposed Goldstone-boson-exchange constituent quark model. Results for charge radii, magnetic moments, and electric as well as magnetic form factors are…
We present the results of the application of a nuclear potential consisting of two- and three-nucleon contact interactions in nuclear structure investigations. The nuclear Hamiltonian has been derived for a very low-energy regime within the…
We construct valence-space Hamiltonians for use in shell-model calculations, where the residual two-body interaction is based on symmetry principles and the low-momentum expansion from chiral effective field theory. In addition to the usual…
It is demonstrated that the magnetic interactions can be drastically different for nano-sized systems compared to those of bulk or surfaces. Using a real-space formalism we have developed a method to calculate non-collinear magnetization…
We present a comparative analysis of chiral quark models which include nonlocal covariant four-fermion couplings. We consider two alternative ways of introducing the nonlocality, as well as various shapes for the momentum-dependent form…
Spectrum of low-lying five-quark configurations with strangeness quantum number $S=-3$ and negative parity is studied in three kinds of constituent quark models, namely the one gluon exchange, Goldstone Boson exchange, and instanton-induced…
We have calculated the properties of nuclear matter in a self-consistent manner with quark-meson coupling mechanism incorporating structure of nucleons in vacuum through a relativistic potential model; where the dominant confining…
We evaluate the two pion exchange contribution to the nucleon-nucleon potential in configuration space using a "minimal chiral model" containing only pions and nucleons. We argue that this model has nowadays a rather firm conceptual basis,…
Soft Two-body potentials between the constituent quarks of the nucleon are derived using harmonic oscillator, i.e. gaussian, quark wave-functions. The gaussian wave-functions are very suited for applications with the ESC soft-core…
