THE EFFECTIVE INTERACTION BETWEEN THE NUCLEON AND THE ISOBAR

title: Hyperon-Meson Vertices and Hyperon-Nucleon Interactions on Quark Model
abstract: In this paper, we introduce two parts of work: the hyperon-meson vertex structure from the one-gluon-exchange quark-antiquark pair creation model and the hyperon-nucleon interactions on a modified quark potential model. For both parts some significant results have been obtained.

title: BARYON–BARYON INTERACTION IN THE EXTENDED CHIRAL SU(3) QUARK MODEL
abstract: The hyperon-nucleon scattering processes and some dibaryon states are studied both in the chiral SU(3) quark model and in the extended chiral SU(3) quark model by solving the resonating group method (RGM) equation. We find that the short-range interaction could be described either by the one-gluon exchange or by the vector meson exchange for baryon-baryon system.

title: Multi-strange hadronic systems in a chiral SU(3) quark mean field model
abstract: We apply the chiral SU(3) quark mean field model to investigate the finite nuclei. We find that the combined confining potential chi(c)(C) is more proper to describe finite nuclei compared with the scalar and scalar-vector potentials. The hypernuclei and multi-strange objects which include A and Xi are discussed in this model. The maximum binding energy for such kind of multi-strange objects is about 16-17 MeV and the corresponding strangeness fraction f(s) is around 1.2-1.3.

title: Color screening effect in the quark potential model
abstract: By using the color confinement potential which includes the color screening effect, we studied the baryon spectra and the nucleon-nucleon interaction. The results show that the color screening effect not only improves the baryon spectrum calculation, but also can solve the long-tail problem of the color Van der Waals force. A part of the medium attraction of the nuclear force can be obtained from the color Van der Waals force.

title: Could strange stars be in the color-flavor-locked phase: Tested by their thermal evolutions
abstract: The thermal evolution of strange stars in both normal and color-flavor-locked (CFL) phases are investigated together with the evolutions of the stellar rotation and the r-mode instability. The heating effects due to the deconfinement transition of the stellar crust and the dissipation of the r-modes are considered. As a result, the cooling of the stars in the normal phase is found to be not very different from the standard one. In contrast, for the stars in the CFL phase, a big bump during the first hundred years and a steep decay ($\sim$7% in ten years) at the ages of $\sim10^{4-6}$ yrs are predicted in their thermal evolution curves. These unique features provide an effective observational test for determining whether or not the CFL phase is reached in strange stars. This thermal test method is independent of and complementary to the rotational test method, which is a direct consequence of the r-mode instability.

title: Neutrino emission from a GRB afterglow shock during an inner supernova shock breakout
abstract: The observations of a nearby low-luminosity gamma-ray burst (GRB) 060218 associated with supernova SN 2006aj may imply an interesting astronomical picture where a supernova shock breakout locates behind a relativistic GRB jet. Based on this picture, we study neutrino emission for early afterglows of GRB 060218-like GRBs, where neutrinos are expected to be produced from photopion interactions in a GRB blast wave that propagates into a dense wind. Relativistic protons for the interactions are accelerated by an external shock, while target photons are basically provided by the incoming thermal emission from the shock breakout and its inverse-Compton scattered component. Because of a high estimated event rate of low-luminosity GRBs, we would have more opportunities to detect afterglow neutrinos from a single nearby GRB event of this type by IceCube. Such a possible detection could provide evidence for the picture described above.

title: Modelling the multiwavelength light curves of PSR B1259−63/SS 2883
abstract: PSR B1259-63/SS 2883 is a binary system in which a 48-ms pulsar orbits around a Be star in a high eccentric orbit with a long orbital period of about 3.4 yr. Extensive broadband observational data are available for this system from radio band to very high energy (VHE) range. The multi-frequency emission is unpulsed and nonthermal, and is generally thought to be related to the relativistic electrons accelerated from the interaction between the pulsar wind and the stellar wind, where X-ray emission is from the synchrotron process and the VHE emission is from the inverse Compton (IC) scattering process. Here a shocked wind model with variation of the magnetization parameter σ is developed for explaining the observations. By choosing proper parameters, our model could reproduce two-peak profile in X-ray and TeV light curves. The effect of the disk exhibits an emission and an absorption components in the X-ray and TeV bands respectively. We suggest that some GeV flares will be produced by Doppler boosting the synchrotron spectrum. This model can possibly be used and be checked in other similar systems such as LS I+61 o 303 and LS 5039.

title: Long-term evolution and gravitational wave radiation of neutron stars with differential rotation induced by r-modes
abstract: In a second-order r-mode theory, Sa and Tome found that the r-mode oscillation in neutron stars (NSs) could induce stellar differential rotation, which naturally leads to a saturated state of the oscillation. Based on a consideration of the coupling of the r-modes and the stellar spin and thermal evolution, we carefully investigate the influences of the differential rotation on the long-term evolution of isolated NSs and NSs in low-mass X-ray binaries, where the viscous damping of the r-modes and its resultant effects are taken into account. The numerical results show that, for both kinds of NSs, the differential rotation can significantly prolong the duration of the r-modes. As a result, the stars can keep nearly a constant temperature and constant angular velocity for over a thousand years. Moreover, the persistent radiation of a quasi-monochromatic gravitational wave would also be predicted due to the long-term steady r-mode oscillation and stellar rotation. This increases the detectability of gravitational waves from both young isolated and old accreting NSs.
