ETA-mesic nucleus: a new nuclear species
The strong-interaction dynamics of the eta N system can cause the eta meson to be captured into nuclear orbitals in nuclei with mass numbers greater than 10. A prediction for what should be the experimental signature of the formation of an eta-mesic nucleus is presented and a forthcoming experiment at Brookhaven is described briefly. The scientific significance of the eta-mesic nuclei is also discussed. 4 refs., 3 figs.
