Nuclear Theory
We study heat conduction and momentum transport in the context of stochastic fluid dynamics. We consider a fluid described by model H in the classification of Hohenberg and Halperin. We study both non-critical and critical fluids, and we…
We present results for the equation of state of symmetric nuclear matter and pure neutron matter obtained in many-body-perturbation theory (MBPT) up to third order, based on various chiral two- and three-nucleon interactions used in ab…
Understanding the interactions between nucleons in dense matter is an important challenge in theoretical physics. Effective field theories have emerged as the dominant approach to address this problem at low energies, with many successful…
We investigate low--energy astrophysical $S$ factors for reactions proceeding through the $^{8}$Be compound system with entrance channels $p+{}^{7}$Li, $n+{}^{7}$Be, and $d+{}^{6}$Li. Using the same microscopic many--channel three--cluster…
Sub-barrier fusion reactions are ideal for probing the effects of pairing correlations on simultaneous neutron transfer. Previous calculations using the BCS approximation showed an enhancement of pair transfer, relative to treatments with…
We study electron-induced single-pion production as a way to constrain the neutron structure of $^{40}$Ar, information that is necessary for neutrino experiments using argon detectors. The proposed experimental signal consists in detecting…
The half-life of the odd-odd deformed proton emitter $^{148}$Lu is predicted to be $196_{-129}^{+420}$ ns via the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) approximation, in which the potential is extracted from the triaxial relativistic…
Dielectrons from heavy flavor hadron decays not only constitute a crucial background to their thermal spectrum in high-energy nuclear collisions, from which the temperature of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is extracted, but also provide a…
We develop a framework to calculate transport properties in cold, dense relativistic quasiparticle system within the Fermi-liquid theory at the mean-field level. Building on our previous study [Phys. Rev. C 111, 044904 (2025)], we start…
Effective field theories have been successful in describing nuclei up to the alpha particle but face significant challenges for larger nuclei due to leading-order instabilities. These issues can be addressed with the introduction of a fake…
The recently developed ``imaging-by-smashing" technique has emerged as a powerful approach to connect final-state collective flow phenomena in ultra-relativistic nuclear collisions with the intrinsic structure of the colliding nuclei. While…
We apply a large-scale summation of Feynman diagrams, including the class of parquet diagrams plus important contributions outside the parquet class, for calculating effective pairing interactions and subsequently the superfluid gap in…
Femtoscopy is one of the promising experimental approaches to put constraints on interactions between various species of hadrons from the momentum correlation functions measured in high-energy nuclear collision experiments. The Koonin-Pratt…
Measurements of fission fragment mass distributions provide valuable insights into the properties of fissioning systems and the dynamics of the fission process. Pre-neutron emission distributions, essential for fission fragment evaporation…
A century ago, Wigner's SU(4) symmetry was introduced to explain the properties of atomic nuclei. Despite recent revived interest, its impact on nuclear structure, transitions, and reactions has not been fully explored. Here, we show that a…
Using the parity doublet model (PDM) for hadronic matter and a modified Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model for quark matter, we investigate the potential existence of two- and three-flavor quark matter in neutron star cores. Both models respect…
Although relativistic heavy-ion collisions have emerged as a powerful probe for studying nuclear structure, the potential influence of nucleon-nucleon short-range correlations (NN-SRCs) on the initial state has remained an open question. By…
Neutron stars can be regarded as natural laboratories that enable us to investigate nuclear matter properties under extreme conditions that are otherwise impossible to access in terrestrial experiments. Astrophysical observations of neutron…
We present the NuclearConfectionery, a modular framework for simulating the full dynamical evolution of relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Its core hydrodynamic module, CCAKE 2.0, represents a major advance over previous SPH-based…
In the first part of this paper, we use the framework of the Fermi liquid theory to derive model-independent relations between the slope parameters of the symmetry energy and of the incompressibility in nuclear matter to three-particle…
