Nuclear Theory
Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) collision kernel is employed in the Boltzmann equation to formulate relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics. In this formulation, we find that there remains freedom of choosing a matching condition that affects…
The paper is the third of a series dedicated to the ab initio description of monopole giant resonances in mid-mass closed- and open-shell nuclei via the so-called projected generator coordinate method. The present focus is on the…
We investigate the charge and point-proton radii of the Ca nuclei in detail in the density functional theory framework. As the Fayans energy density functional provides characteristic $N$-dependence, successfully describing the parabolic…
Collective nuclear excitations, like giant resonances, are sensitive to nuclear deformation, as evidenced by alterations in their excitation energies and transition strength distributions. A common theoretical framework to study these…
It is important to develop a unified theoretical framework to describe the nuclear experiments and astrophysical observations based on the same effective nuclear interactions. Based on the so-called Skyrme pseudopotential up to…
Within the Energy Density Functional (EDF) approach, the use of mean-field wave-functions deliberately breaking (some) symmetries of the underlying Hamiltonian is an efficient and largely utilized way to incorporate static correlations.…
We employ a model based on nucleonic and mesonic degrees of freedom to discuss the competition between isotropic and anisotropic phases in cold and dense matter. Assuming isotropy, the model exhibits a chiral phase transition which is of…
We study electromagnetic form factors of protons in proton-nucleus scattering via analysing of experimental cross-sections of accompanying bremsstrahlung photons. A new bremsstrahlung model for proton-nucleus scattering is developed, where…
The extended kernel ridge regression (EKRR) method with odd-even effects was adopted to improve the description of the nuclear charge radius using five commonly used nuclear models. These are: (i) the isospin dependent $A^{1/3}$ formula,…
The electromagnetic form factors $G_{\rm E}$ and $G_{\rm M}$ of the proton and neutron in the timelike region are extracted in a study of the processes $e^+ e^-\to \bar{p}p$ and $e^+ e^-\to \bar{n}n$. The reaction amplitude is evaluated…
For many decades, the main source of information on the top-left corner element of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark mixing matrix $V_{ud}$ were superallowed nuclear beta decays with an impressive 0.01\% precision. This precision, apart…
Recently, it has been argued that a spherical-like spectrum emerges in the SU3-IBM, opening up new approaches to understand the {\gamma}-softness in realistic nuclei. In a previous paper, {\gamma}-softness with degeneracy of the ground and…
Purpose: In this paper we investigated emission of bremsstrahlung photons in the scattering of protons off deuterons within the microscopic cluster models in a wide region of the beam energy from low energies up to 1.5 GeV. Methods:…
In this paper, we investigate the evolution of strange quark stars (SQS) from birth as proto-strange quark stars to maturity as stable SQSs at a zero temperature. We assume that self-bound free quarks form {entirely the compact} star and…
We perform a calculation of dense and hot nuclear matter where the mean interaction between nucleons is described by in-medium effective fields and where we employ analytical approximations of the Fermi integrals. We generalize a previous…
We solve the ground state of the deuteron using a variational neural network ansatz for the wave function in momentum space. This ansatz provides a flexible representation of both the $S$ and the $D$ states, with relative errors in the…
Chiral effective field theory ($\chi$EFT) is a powerful tool for studying electroweak processes in nuclei. I discuss $\chi$EFT calculations of three key nuclear electroweak processes: primordial deuterium production, proton-proton fusion,…
Starting from a complete set of relativistic nucleon-nucleon contact operators up to order $O(p^4)$ of the expansion in the soft (relative or nucleon) momentum $p$, we show that non-relativistic expansions of relativistic operators involve…
We review model calculations of exclusive vector meson production in ultraperipheral heavy ion collisions. We highlight differences and similarities between different dipole models and leading twist shadowing calculations. Recent color…
We show that it is possible to define a timelike future-directed information current within relativistic first-order hydrodynamics. This constitutes the first step toward a covariantly stable and causal formulation of first-order…
