On a Radiative Decay of Σ+

Abstract:

The radiative decay of Σ+ is examined by using a dispersion theoretic method. The matrix element is related to those of the pion-photoproduction from proton and the ordinary Σ+-decay in the lowest mass approximation. In order to obtain the real part of the matrix element, according to Fijii-Iwata's rule we introduce the parameter which reflects the damping behavior of the decay matrix element corresponding to the increase of Q-values. Concerning the effective interaction of Σ+n0+, we assumed the conventional type, i.e. a++b+γ5. Examining our results in the light of the observed decay rate, we conclude that b+ may be excluded in some accuracy as seen in Table II.
