    Transversity Generalized Parton Distributions of with the Diquark Spectator Model

    Dongyan Fu🇨🇳 · Yubing Dong🇨🇳 · S. Kumano🇨🇳

    We show quark transversity generalized parton pistributions (GPDs) of isobar by using the diquark spectator model for the first time. First, this model is tested by electric charge, magnetic-dipole and axial charge form factors, and it is used for calculating the transversity GPDs of . The quark transversity distribution is then obtained from the transversity GPDs in the forward limit. Then, helicity-flip amplitudes are shown numerically by using relations between the helicity amplitudes and the GPDs. Finally, by taking first moments of the GPDs, tensor form factors are obtained and we predict the tensor charge. Experimentally, - transition GPDs are investigated in deeply virtual Compton scattering and virtual meson-production processes, and generalized distribution amplitudes, which correspond to the -channel GPDs, could be investigated by the two-photon processes at the electron-positron colliders. Therefore, the spin-3/2 GPDs could become interesting quantities experimentally in future.

    -mode Oscillations for Hyperons and H-dibaryons in Neutron Stars

    Rajesh Maiti🇮🇳 · Jesper Leong🇦🇺 · Debarati Chatterjee🇮🇳 · Anthony W. Thomas🇦🇺

    The fundamental (-mode) oscillations of neutron stars are studied within the quark meson coupling model, a relativistic Hartree-Fock theory of dense nuclear matter, which takes into account the self-consistent modification of the valence quark structure of the bound baryons in the associated strong Lorentz scalar mean fields. For the first time, hyperons and H-dibaryons are included, along with the effects of potential additional short-range repulsion within this scheme, and their influence on -modes is investigated. Universal relations are studied within the relativistic Cowling approximation and compared against those in the existing literature for potential applications in gravitational wave asteroseismology.

    Role of symmetry energy at subnuclear densities in protoneutron star crusts

    Ken'ichiro Nakazato🇯🇵 · Hajime Togashi🇯🇵 · Kohsuke Sumiyoshi🇯🇵 · Hideyuki Suzuki🇯🇵

    The impact of matter properties at subnuclear densities on the evolution of protoneutron stars is investigated. Several models of nuclear equation of state (EOS) are constructed with varying saturation parameters, particularly the symmetry energy and its density slope . Using the Thomas--Fermi approximation, the mass and proton numbers of heavy nuclei at subnuclear densities are systematically evaluated, along with their dependence on the EOS. Cooling simulations of protoneutron stars reveal that EOSs with smaller values lead to a longer cooling timescale and higher average neutrino energies. This behavior is attributed to the enhanced neutrino scattering caused by larger mass numbers, which increases the thermal insulation. Furthermore, the crystallization temperature, marking the onset of crust formation, is found to be higher for EOSs with smaller values of . This is due to the enhanced Coulomb energy associated with larger proton numbers. As a result, despite slower cooling, crust formation occurs earlier for smaller- EOSs. These findings indicate that the timing of crust formation is sensitive to the EOS and highlight the importance of late-time neutrino observations as probes of the matter properties at subnuclear densities.
