We perform Glauber model calculations of the antiproton-nucleus elastic and quasielastic scattering and absorption in the beam momentum range $\sim 0.5\div10$ GeV/c. A good agreement of our calculations with available LEAR data and with…
A previously derived semi-microscopic analysis based on the Double Folding Model, for alpha-particle elastic scattering on A~100 nuclei at energies below 32 MeV, is extended to medium mass A ~ 50-120 nuclei and energies from ~13 to 50 MeV.…
The measurements performed by particle physics experiments must account for the imperfect response of the detectors used to observe the interactions. One approach, unfolding, statistically adjusts the experimental data for detector effects.…
We study graviton-graviton scattering in partial-wave amplitudes after unitarizing their Born terms. In order to apply $S$-matrix techniques, based on unitarity and analyticity, we introduce an $S$-matrix associated to this resummation that…
While a plane-wave approximation in high-energy physics works well in a majority of practical cases, it becomes inapplicable for scattering of the vortex particles carrying orbital angular momentum, of Airy beams, of the so-called…
We show that colliding vortex beams instead of (approximate) plane waves can lead to a direct measurement of how the overall phase of the plane wave scattering amplitude changes with the scattering angle. Since vortex beams are coherent…
In this manuscript we investigate the capabilities of the Discrete Dipole Approximation (DDA) to simulate scattering from particles that are much larger than the wavelength of the incident light, and describe an optimized publicly available…
Inelastic neutron scattering measurements on a CePd3 single crystal show a magnetic response at 300 K that is independent of momentum transfer with a Lorentzian quasielastic energy spectrum with a half width of 23 meV. This is in agreement…
A previous paper [J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 50, 215302 (2017)] showed that partial wave analysis becomes applicable to nonrelativistic Coulomb scattering if wavepackets are used. The scattering geometry considered was special: that of…
By a mix of form-factors and analyticity techniques, we determine some fundamental scattering amplitudes in non-Fermi liquid systems. These include the reflection and transmission amplitudes for Laughlin quasiparticles at a point contact…
For a low energy effective theory to admit a standard local, unitary, analytic and Lorentz-invariant UV completion, its scattering amplitudes must satisfy certain inequalities. While these bounds are known in the forward limit for real…
A global analysis of the data on Bhabha scattering from the four LEP experiments ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL is performed to search for effects of virtual graviton exchange in models with low scale gravity. No statistically significant…
Neutrino-electron scatterings ($\nu - e$) are purely leptonic processes with robust Standard Model (SM) predictions. Their measurements can therefore provide constraints to physics beyond SM. Non-commutative (NC) field theories modify…
We study bounds arising from the analyticity and unitarity of scattering amplitudes in the context of effective field theories with massless particles. We provide an approach that only uses dispersion relations away from the forward limit.…
Leptophilic sub-MeV spin-1 dark matter (DM) can be converted into a photon via inelastic scattering with a free electron or absorption by a neutral hydrogen atom in the primordial plasma. We study for the first time the impact of the energy…

Unitarity and the optical theorem are used to derive the reduced density matrices of Compton scattering in the presence of a witness particle. Two photons are initially entangled wherein one photon participates in Compton scattering while…
We study two-to-two scattering amplitudes of a scalar particle of mass $m$. For simplicity, we assume the presence of $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry and that the particle is $\mathbb{Z}_2$ odd. We consider two classes of amplitudes: the fully…
