The dielectric function excited by rho NN tensor coupling in nuclear matter

The dielectric function of nuclear matter excited by $\rho NN$ tensor coupling has been studied in the framework of Finite temperature field theory. The induced current mechanism has been introduced to explain the three extrema on the dielectric function curve, of which one is in the space-like region and the other two are in the time-like region. It points out that the tensor coupling contributes much more large amplitude than the vector coupling and plays a more important role on the time-like region compared with its effect on the space-like region.
