Nuclear Theory
We investigate Bayesian chiral effective field theory ($\chi$EFT) uncertainties, which assign a statistical interpretation to equation of state (EOS) distributions near nuclear saturation density, n$_0$, as well as constraints from…
The unique resonance features in the $^{12}$C+$^{12}$C fusion reaction lead to significant fluctuations in the branching ratio $R_{p/\alpha}=\sigma_p/\sigma_\alpha$, making it difficult to determine the $R_{p/\alpha}$ at astrophysical…
In high-energy heavy-ion collisions, propagation of the energy deposited into the medium by energetic partons that traverse the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) leads to Mach-cone-like jet-induced medium response. Full simulations of such…
Spherical harmonics form a complete orthonormal basis which allows any function on the sphere to be expanded. The nuclear shape of a given eigenstate can thus be described within Bohr's quasi-molecular model by a coordinate transformation…
The Trojan Horse Method (THM) extracts low-energy charged-particle resonance strengths through a plane-wave impulse approximation (PWIA) reduction of a three-body transfer matrix element. The Ichimura-Austern-Vincent (IAV) inclusive…
Shell evolution plays a vital role in understanding the nuclear shell structures across the nuclear chart. In this work, we have investigated the $N = 34$ shell structure using the state-of-the-art ab-initio valence-space in-medium…
Recent studies of multi-nucleon transfer in heavy ion collisions have employed both macroscopic and microscopic models. Although macroscopic approaches offer useful insights, microscopic analyses of high-precision experimental data provide…
The effect of neutron-proton ($np$) pairing on the high-momentum tail (HMT) of nucleon momentum distributions in symmetric nuclear matter is investigated within a combined framework of the extended Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach with…
We study the inclusive heavy charmonium $\chi_{c1}(1P)$ photoproduction from nuclei near the kinematic threshold within the collision model, based on the nuclear spectral function, for incoherent direct photon--nucleon charmonium creation…
The dense matter equation of state is of great interest due to the recent development of astrophysical observations for neutron stars. A rapid increase in pressure indicates a continuous crossover from a hadron phase to a quark phase…
Femtoscopic measurements of two-pion Bose--Einstein correlations have established that particle-emitting sources in heavy-ion collisions are well described by L\'evy $\alpha$-stable distributions, motivating systematic studies across a wide…
Machine learning is applied to derive microscopically parameters of the interacting boson model for nuclear spectroscopy. A physics-guided neural network is proposed, which is trained to map the potential energy landscapes that are…
Three stable isobars, $^{96}_{40}$Zr$_{56}$, $^{96}_{42}$Mo$_{54}$ and $^{96}_{44}$Ru$_{52}$, which are in the vicinity of the harmonic oscillator proton shell closure Z=40 and the spin-orbit neutron shell closure N=50, are investigated for…
We perform a stability analysis of the homogeneous ground state of nuclear matter against inhomogeneous perturbations of the pion condensate. In $\beta$-equilibrium, restricting the baryon species to nucleons only, we observe no…
The trace anomaly of dense matter, $\Delta \equiv 1/3 - P/\varepsilon$, defined through the ratio $w \equiv P/\varepsilon$ of pressure $P$ to energy density $\varepsilon$, quantifies deviations from conformal symmetry and provides a…
Quantum entanglement provides a unique perspective for probing nuclear structure. In this work, we employ quantum entanglement measures, including proton-neutron entanglement entropy, mutual information, and quantum relative entropy, to…
We investigate the spectral functions of neutral and charged mesons in a hot dense medium under a external magnetic field using the two-flavor quark-meson model within the functional renormalization group (FRG) framework. Our results show…
\textbf{Background} (1) The incoherent emission of photons is dominant comparing to coherent one in proton-nucleus scattering. The incoherent bremsstrahlung is very sensitive to the magnetic moments of nucleons in nuclei. (2) According to…
This work focuses on the fourth order correlations $\chi^{BQ}_{31}$, $\chi^{QB}_{31}$, $\chi^{BQ}_{22}$, $\chi^{BS}_{31}$, $\chi^{SB}_{31}$, $\chi^{BS}_{22}$, $\chi^{QS}_{31}$, $\chi^{SQ}_{31}$, $\chi^{QS}_{22}$, $\chi^{BQS}_{211}$,…
We study the impact of symmetry energy ($S$), hyperons, and dark matter (DM) on structural and oscillatory properties of neutron stars (NSs). Uncertainty from hadronic equation of state for NSs is considered with 15 relativistic mean field…
