Quark model and the magnetic moments of proton and neutron

Модель кварков и магинтные моменты протона и нейтрона

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

It is shown that in order to obtain agreement with experiment for the ratio of the proton to neutron magnetic moment within the framework of the nonrelativistic quark model, the nucleon wave functions must contain orbital angular momentum. Any departure fromSU 6-invariant wave functions for proton and neutron not containing orbital angular momentum only enlarges the disagreement with experiment.

Riassunto

Si dimostra che per ottenere l’accordo con i dati sperimentali per il rapporto del momento magnetico del protone e del neutrone nel quadro del modello a quark non relativistico, le funzioni d’onda del nucleone debbono contenere il momento angolare orbitale. Qualsiasi abbandono delle funzioni d’onda per il protone e il neutrone invarianti rispetto all’SU 6 che non contengano termini nel momento angolare orbitale non fa che aumentare il disaccordo con i dati sperimentali.

Резюме

Показывается, что для получения согласия с экспериментом для отношения магнитного момента протона к магнитному моменту нейтрона в рамках нерелятивистской модели кварков нуклонные функции должны содержать орбитальный момент. Любое отступление отSU 6-инвариантных волновых фуикций для протона и нейтрона, не содержащее орбитального момента, только увеличивает расхождение с экспериментом.
