Phi0 - N bound state
Oct, 2000Citations per year
Abstract:
We show that the QCD van der Waals attractive potential is strong enough to bind a meson onto a nucleon inside a nucleus to form a bound state. The direct experimental signature for such an exotic state is proposed in the case of subthreshold meson photoproduction from nuclear targets. The production rate is estimated and such an experiment is found to be feasible at the Jefferson Laboratory.- bound state: (Phi(1020) nucleon)
