Nuclear mass measurements and neutron matter theory tightly constrain the nuclear symmetry energy parameters $J$, $L$, $K_{sym}$ and $Q_{sym}$. Corroboration of these constraints on $J$ and $L$ can be found from measurements of the neutron…
Gravity is the weakest of all four known forces in the universe. Quantum states of an elementary particle due to such a weak field is certainly very shallow and would therefore be an experimental challenge to detect. Recently an…
