Formation of {eta}{sup '}(958)-Mesic Nuclei and Axial U{sub A}(1) Anomaly at Finite Density
Abstract
We discuss the possibility of producing the bound states of the {eta}{sup '}(958) meson in nuclei theoretically. We calculate the formation cross sections of the {eta}{sup '} bound states with the Green function method for the ({gamma},p) reaction and discuss the experimental feasibility at photon facilities such as SPring-8. We conclude that we can expect to observe resonance peaks in ({gamma},p) spectra for the formation of {eta}{sup '} bound states and we can deduce new information on {eta}{sup '} properties at finite density. These observations are believed to be essential to know the possible mass shift of {eta}{sup '} and deduce new information on the effective restoration of the chiral U{sub A}(1) anomaly in the nuclear medium.
