RUI: Participation in the Study of Strange Nuclear Systems

一项研究计划将在布鲁克海文进行 国家实验室（BNL）AGS设施和瓦萨学院相关 到超核物理学，特别是，实验旨在 寻找稀有的奇异二重子和西格马 其中σ重子被束缚在核中的超核。 的 重子搜索是由严重的夸克袋模型激发的 预测。 sigma超核搜索提供了 可能有新的资料， sigma重子和正常核物质，以及最终如何 把奇异夸克引入核子， 强大的力量。 本科生将融入 投入到这个研究项目中 这项研究将在 与包括BNL工作人员在内的更大团体合作。

A research program will be carried out at the Brookhaven National Lab (BNL) AGS facility and at Vassar College related to hypernuclear physics, specifically, experiments aimed at a search for rare, strangeness -2 dibaryons and for sigma hypernuclei in which sigma baryons are bound in nuclei. The dibaryon search is motivated by serious quark bag model predictions. The sigma hypernuclear search offers the possibility of new information regarding the force between sigma baryons and normal nuclear matter, and ultimately how the introduction of strange quarks into the nucleon modifies the strong force. Undergraduate students will be integrated into this research program. The research will be carried out in collaboration with a larger group including staff at BNL.
