New submissions to the thesis/dissertation collections are added automatically as they are received from the Graduate School. Currently, the Graduate School deposits all theses and dissertations from a given semester after the official graduation date. This means that there may be up to a 4 month delay in the appearance of a give thesis/dissertation in DRUM

    New insights from large Nc QCD
    (2013) Krejcirik, Vojtech; Cohen, Thomas D; Physics; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)
    In this dissertation, three problems--one in meson physics, one in baryon physics, and one in nuclear physics--are analyzed in the large Nc limit of quantum chromodynamics. It is shown that a Hagedorn spectrum emerges naturally for mesons, i.e. that the number of mesons grows exponentially with mass; a new relation for the electromagnetic form factors of nucleon is derived in the combined large Nc and chiral limit of QCD; Nc scaling of the nucleon-nucleon scattering S-matrix is deduced as well as an exact formula for the nucleon-nucleon cross section in the leading order in 1/Nc expansion is derived.
