Electromagnetic form factors of the proton in the time-like region with the PANDA detector GDR/LQCD Autrans, 6-7 Juin 2005 Saro Ong IPN Orsay and UPJV Amiens
Main Topics • Charmonium (narrow charmonium and charmonium above open charm threshold) • Hybrid Charmonium and Gluballs • Exotics (tetra and pentaquark up to 2.7 GeV/c2) • Charm in Nuclei (charmonium absorption and mass shift of charmed mesons in Nuclei) • Hypernuclei • Open charm physics • Crossed-channel Compton scattering • Transverse quark distribution and Drell-Yan processes • Electromagnetic FF of the proton in the time-like region
S.K. Choi et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 182002 (2005) and hep-ex/0408126 • Observation of a hybrid meson at the KEK Laboratory (Belle Collaboration). The new meson is known as the Y(3940). It may be a hybrid meson containing a charm quark, a charm antiquark and a gluon . It decays into omega and J/psi • LQCD predicts the presence of about 15 glueballs in the mass range accessible to the HESR (< 4.5 GeV/C2) See for details : C. Morningstar and M. Peardon, Phys. Rev. D60, 034509 (1999)
Panda Collaboration (350 physicists, 47 lnstitutions of 15 Countries ).We (IPNO group) propose to measure the electromagnetic FF of the proton in the time-like region.
Physics Motivation • Electromagnetic form factors of hadrons in the space-like and time-like regions provide fundamental informations on their structure and internal dynamics. • Till now, the available data in the time-like-region are limited by low statistics. The |Ge| and |Gm| separation could not be done without assumptions. • The numerical values of |Gm| in the region explored by Fermilab (E760, E835) are approximately twice as large as those in the corresponding space-like region.
The space-like FF are reals, The time-like form factors have a phase structure reflecting the final or initial state interaction of the hadrons. • The JLab results show us that the Pauli/Dirac ratio is not observed to fall with the nominal expected power and make critical to carefully measure and separate the time-like Gm and Ge form factors • With polarized proton-antiproton reactions, the measurement of the proton FF in the time-like region should strongly discriminate between the different models suggested to fit the proton FF in the space-like region.

Events selection • The analysis of the data is based on the identification of the coplanar e+e- pairs tracks collinear in the CMS with an invariant mass compatible with the center of mass energy of the p barp system. • Simulations of the signal and backgrounds are in progress.

Antiproton-proton scattering with polarizationPAX Collaboration (www.fz-juelich.de/ikp/pax) • Ay the transverse single spin asymmetry (SSA) in annihilation (beam or target polarized):
Py is the normal polarization to the scattering plane of the outgoing hadron in annihilation e+e- to p barp The polarization Py does not require polarization in the initial state. The measurement of the SSA would strongly discriminate between the models suggested to fit the proton Ge/Gm data in the space like region

Conclusion • Separation of |Ge| and |Gm| in the time-like region with the detector PANDA up to S > 15 GeV2. • With a transversely polarized proton target, we would determine the relative phase between Ge and Gm by measuring the transverse single spin asymmetry.
