Predictions of three-body-decays of mesons from pole-dominated dispersion relations

The investigation shows that the method of finite dispersion relations (FDR) as developed by Aviv and Nussinov (1970) is consistent with a wide range of three-body meson decays. The specific results vary with each reaction. For each possibility a definite form for the t-channel Regge-pole terms is selected. The results of the investigation indicate the basic reliability of an approach based on the FDR method and the finite-energy sum rules.

Interpretation of experimental differential elastic scattering cross section for H/+/ + Ne.

The interatomic V(r) found by potential-model calculations is compared to an ab initio calculation of the intermolecular potential for NeH+ due to Peyerimhoff (1965). The reason for a rather significant difference in the two results is discussed, and a new method due to Remler (1971) involving Regge poles is applied. The method can be used to calculate the differential cross section, where the starting point for such calculations is based on intuition in light of the classical deflection function.

P(P bar)P elastic scattering and cosmic ray data

It is shown that the total cross section for pp elastic scattering at cosmic ray energies, as well as the total cross section, the slope parameter b(s,t) and the differential cross section for small momentum transfer at ISR and collider energies for p(p)p elastic scattering can be simultaneously fitted by using a simple Regge pole model. The results of this theory is discussed in detail.

Review of Work Done with Professor Nussenzveig Regarding the Mie Theory

Prof. Nussenzveig has dedicated part of his career to a surprising and unusual pursuit harking back to the heyday of classical physics: Mie theory, or the scattering of electromagnetic radiation by a homogeneous sphere. M e theory was not put forward until around 1908 (nearly simultaneously by Debye in a different form) and was quickly forgotten in the rush to the then-new quantum mechanics. It remained somewhat of a backwater until Prof. Nussenzveig brought it back by adapting complex angular momentum ideas from Regge pole theory, which had originally been invented for quantum mechanics. Since 1960, he has made fundamental contributions to actually understanding (as opposed to merely calculating) Mie theory. I became involved with this work in 1978 by inviting Prof. Nussenzveig to visit me at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. Since then we have written several papers together on approximate methods for Mie cross-sections, bubble scattering, and other subjects. This lecture will review that work, ending with his recent work on Mie resonances. The emphasis will be on the applications in atmospheric sciences.
