Nuclear Theory
Different variants of the Hadron Resonance Gas model have been used to describe the hadronic phase of strongly interacting matter. HRG model is improved by including repulsive interaction through the inclusion of excluded volume in Excluded…
The collective flow provides valuable insights into the anisotropic expansion of particles produced in heavy-ion collisions and is sensitive to the equation of the state of nuclear matter in high-baryon-density regions. In this paper, we…
This review article presents historical developments and recent advances in our understanding on the three-body forces and Efimov physics, from an interdisciplinary viewpoint encompassing nuclear physics and cold atoms. Theoretical attempts…
The invariant mass spectra of dileptons radiated from the fireballs formed in high-energy heavy-ion collisions have been successfully used to investigate the properties of hot and dense QCD matter. Using a realistic model for the in-medium…
Longitudinal ($R_L$) and transverse ($R_T$) responses from inclusive electron scattering from carbon 12 and calcium 40 nuclei are computed within a fully relativistic and unfactorized model for the initial and final states, and one- and…
We present a neural network classification model for detecting the presence of hyperonic degrees of freedom in neutron stars. The models take radii and/or tidal deformabilities as input and give the probability for the presence of hyperons…
We present a new inference framework for neutron star astrophysics based on conditional variational autoencoders. Once trained, the generator block of the model reconstructs the neutron star equation of state from a given set of mass-radius…
Beta-delayed proton emission in the lower half of the sd-shell will involve deformed nuclei. We derive the normalized matrix element connecting emission of one particle from an initial rotational nuclear state to another final rotating…
The cluster structures of the $0^+$ states in $^{12}\mathrm{C}$, including the ground state, the Hoyle state, and the recently identified $0_3^+$ and $0_4^+$ states, are analyzed to explore the cluster configurations and $3\alpha$…
The utility of the non-relativistic large-charge EFT for physical systems, and neutron matter in particular, relies on controlled Schr\"odinger-symmetry breaking deformations due to scattering length and effective-range effects in the…
Soft Two-body potentials between the constituent quarks of the nucleon are derived using harmonic oscillator, i.e. gaussian, quark wave-functions. The gaussian wave-functions are very suited for applications with the ESC soft-core…
These notes summarise the lectures given at the International School of Physics "Enrico Fermi" in Summer 2024 in Varenna (Italy) about the strongly coupled quantum many-body theory and its applications to nuclear structure. The lectures…
Cold and dense matter may break rotational symmetry spontaneously and thus form an anisotropic phase in the interior of neutron stars. We consider the concrete example of an anisotropic chiral condensate in the form of a chiral density…
This study investigates the tetrahedral structure in $^{80}$Zr and Lambda ($\Lambda$) impurity effect in $^{81}_{~\Lambda}$Zr using the multidimensionally constrained relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov model. The ground states of both…
A framework for computing the superfluid gap in an effective field theory (EFT) of fermions interacting via momentum-independent contact forces is developed. The leading universal corrections in the EFT are one-loop in-medium effects at the…
Within the model of partial chemical equilibrium (PCE) we calculate the multiplicity ratios of selected unstable resonances to given stable species. We focus on those ratios that have been measured either in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC or…
To accurately determine the nuclear equation of state (EoS) at finite baryon chemical potential ($\mu_B$) remains a challenging yet essential goal in the study of QCD matter under extreme conditions. In this study, we develop a deep…
With an appropriate $YNN$ force, the $\Lambda$ single-particle potential ($\Lambda$ potential) can be made strongly repulsive at high density, and one can solve the hyperon puzzle of neutron stars. We investigate the consistency of such a…
We examine the $\Lambda$-${}^4\mathrm{He}$ ($\alpha$) and $\Xi \alpha$ momentum correlation in high-energy collisions to further elucidate the properties of the hyperon-nucleon interactions. For the $\Lambda\alpha$ system, we compare…
Multimessenger studies of heavy-ion collisions, using hadrons and electromagnetic probes, can reveal the properties of the created QCD matter from different perspectives. This study calculates the thermal dilepton invariant mass spectra and…
