Gluonic degrees of freedom play an important role in the masses of the eta and etaprime mesons. We discuss eta- and etaprime-nucleon and nucleus interactions where this glue may be manifest. Interesting processes being studied in…

An empirical fit to electron-nucleus scattering for $A>2$ is made based on world data. It is valid for $0<W<3.2$ GeV and $0.2<Q^2<5$ GeV$^2$, and can be used with caution at lower $Q^2$. The fit is based on previous empirical fits to…

The large values of the singlet and triplet scattering lengths locate the two-nucleon system close to the unitary limit, the limit in which these two values diverge. As a consequence, the system shows a continuous scale invariance which…
The uncoupled $P$-wave channels of nucleon-nucleon scattering are studied in an effective field theory (EFT) including a perturbative dibaryon field and perturbative pions. Good agreement between EFT results and the Nijmegen partial wave…
