Consistent baryon mapping of quark systems

Pittel, Stuart; Arias Carrasco, José Miguel; Dukelsky, Jorge; Frank, A.

Abstract

We present a new and consistent mapping of colorless three-quark clusters onto colorless triplet fermions (baryons) and test it in the context of a three-color extension of the Lipkin model. For systems with two triplets (for which the problem can be solved without approximation both before and after the mapping), we exactly reproduce the dynamics of the model for the variety of correlation structures considered

Un o una ely, many-qua k e - ec s ha may a ise when mo e han wo nucleons a e p esen will be missed in such an app oach. To inco - po a e hem, we would like o bypass he wo-nucleon p oblem and wo k di ec ly in he space o many qua ks. Since asys em o 3A qua ks will clus e in o A iple s (nucleons) a no mal nuclea densi ies, anecessa y in- g edien in any such app oach is ame hod o handling s ong h ee-body co ela ions in amany-body en i on- men . Recen ly, i has been sugges ed [3— 5] ha mapping me hods [6] migh p o ide ap ac ical means o accom- plishing his. The basic idea is o map colo less h ee- qua k clus e s, which do no sa is y exac e mion an i- commu a ion ules, on o iple e mions (ba yons) ha do. Such amapping leads &om he o iginal mul i- qua k Hamil onian o an e ec i e Hamil onian o hese ba yons, which igo ously inco po a es he physics o he Pauli p inciple a he qua k le el. The i ue o his app oach is no in a educ ion o he deg ees o eedom — he e a e in ac mo e s a es in he mapped space han in he o iginal space — bu a he in he ep esen a ion o he dynamics as asys- em o in e ac ing ba yons. These ba yons con ain as a subspace he physical nucleons (as well as exci ed nu- cleonic s a es) and in e ac wi h one ano he in ways ha should be amenable o he usual e mion many-body echniques [7], e.g.,Ha ee-Fock, Tamm-Danco , and andom phase app oxima ions, B ueckne heo y, e c. Se e al di e en mappings o qua ks o iple e mions ha e been ecen ly discussed. Pi el, Engel, Dukelsky, and Ring [3] (he ea e e e ed o as PEDR) p oposed a wo-s ep p ocedu e, whe eby pai s o qua ks a e 6 s mapped on o diqua k bosons and hen boson- e mion pai s a e mapped on o iple e mions.

A oughly he same ime, Nadjako [4] sugges ed an al e na i e mapping ha leads di ec ly o an isymme ic iple e mions and, u he mo e, is ap- plicable o h ee-body in e ac ions.

FRANK e e , is no app op ia e o sys ems ha a e domina ed by wo-body in e ac ions. Clea ly, wha is needed is a mapping ha consis en ly ea s bo h wo- and h ee- qua k in e ac ions. One such me hod was in ac p oposed soon he e- a e by Meye [5]. Howe e , his mapping does no seem o p ope ly ea wo-body in e ac ions ei he , a leas when a unca ion o colo less iple e mions is imposed. Building on he ideas o Meye , we ha e now succeeded in o mula ing anew ba yon mapping o (col- o less) h ee-qua k clus e s ha seems o sa is y all he desi ed equi emen s. In Sec.

Bo h PEDR and Meye es ed hei mappings in he con ex o an exac ly sol able model o qua ks o en e- e ed o as he Bonn qua k shell model (BQSM) [8]. While his model has some a ac i e ea u es, i also has some se ious limi a ions. Pe haps he mos signi ican is ha i does no p oduce spa ially localized colo less h ee-qua k clus e s (i.e.,nucleons) [9]. Thus asecond goal o his wo k has been o de elop an al e na i e qua k model on which o es ou mapping. The model ha we ha e chosen is a h ee-colo ex ension o he well-known Lipkin model [10], which in i s adi ional e sion has been used ex ensi ely o es a ious nuclea many-body echniques. We desc ibe his model in Sec. III and dis- cuss i s algeb aic solu ion o small numbe s o pa icles.
