Abstract:
Using results of a recent calculation of the in the nuclear medium, which show that the medium width is about five times the free width, we study the A dependence of the production cross section in the reactions and . We find a sizable A dependence in the ratio of the nuclear cross sections for heavy nuclei with respect to a light one due to the large value of the width in the medium, showing that devoted experiments, easily within reach in present facilities, can provide good information on that magnitude by measuring the cross sections studied here.- photon nucleus: nuclear reaction
- Lambda(1520): photoproduction
- p nucleus: nuclear reaction
- Lambda(1520): hadroproduction
- nuclear matter: effect
- channel cross section: ratio
- dependence: mass number
- Lambda(1520): hadronic decay
- Lambda(1520): decay modes
- Lambda(1520): width
