Helm model interpretation of 16O form factors: application to pion photoproduction and muon capture

Publication: Canadian Journal of Physics
January 1980

Abstract

The available experimental data for the form factors of the T = 1 levels in 16O, obtained from electron scattering at low (Darmstadt), medium (Tohoku), and high momentum transfer (Stanford), are interpreted by the generalized Helm model. This phenomenological model reduces the form factor description of each level to the listing of a few physical parameters, i.e., the radius and smearing width of the transition densities of charge (current) and magnetization, and their corresponding strength constants. Its parameters having been determined by the form factor fits, the model may then be used to predict the results of other medium energy processes; this is done here for the photoproduction of charged pions and for muon capture in16O.

Résumé

Les données expérimentales disponibles pour les facteurs de forme des niveaux T = 1 dans 16O, obtenus dans les expériences de diffusion des électrons avec transfert d'impulsion faible (Darmstadt), moyen (Tohoku) et élevé (Stanford), sont interprétées dans le modèle de Helm généralisé. Dans ce modèle phénoménologique, la description du facteur de forme de chaque niveau se trouve réduite à une liste de quelques paramètres physiques, à savoir le rayon et la largeur d'étalement des densités de transition de la charge (du courant) et de la magnétisation, ainsi que les constantes d'intensité correspondantes. Une fois que ces paramètres ont été déterminés par des ajustements aux facteurs de forme, le modèle peut être utilisé pour prédire les résultats des autres processus à énergie moyenne, ce qui est fait ici pour la photoproduction de pions chargés et pour la capture des muons dans 16O.[Traduit par le journal]
