The recent discovery of a narrow resonance in the decay $J/\psi \to \gamma p \bar{p}$ is described as a zero baryon number, ``deuteron-like singlet ${}^1S_0 $'' state. The difference in binding energy of the deuteron (-2.225 MeV) and of the…

We performed an experimental search for the bound state singlet deuteron predicted in some microscopic calculations. The experiment consists in a high statistics measurement of gamma ray spectra after thermal neutron capture by hydrogen…
Background: Direct measurement of the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the neutron lies in the future; measurement of a nuclear EDM may well come first. The deuteron is one nucleus for which exact model calculations are feasible. Purpose: We…
The charge-exchange break-up of polarised deuterons pol{d}p -> {pp}n, where the final {pp} diproton system has a very low excitation energy and hence is mainly in the 1S0 state, is a powerful tool to probe the spin-flip terms in the…
We present a study of the two-photon-exchange ($2\gamma$-exchange) corrections to the $S$-levels in muonic ($\mu$D) and ordinary (D) deuterium within the pionless effective field theory (pionless EFT). Our calculation proceeds up to…

The (pi+,pd), and (pi+,dd) reactions were investigated with pions of 100 and 165 MeV kinetic energy on 6Li and 12C targets. In comparison with previously published (pi+,pp) data on the same targets and at the same beam energies, kinematic…
Relativistic effects and the role of heavy meson exchange in deuteron photodisintegration are studied systematically for photon energies below the pion production threshold. In a (p/M)-expansion, all leading order relativistic one-body and…

We study (multi) fermion - monopole bound states, many of which are the states that dyons adiabatically transition into as fermions become light. The properties of these bound states depend critically on the UV symmetries preserved by the…
We calculate the second-order corrections to the atomic energy level shifts in ordinary and muonic deuterium due to virtual excitations of the deuteron which are important for ongoing and planned precise experiments in these systems. For…
Within a chiral quark sigma model in which quarks interact via the exchange of sigma and pi-mesons, hadron properties are investigated. This model of the nucleon and delta is based on the idea that strong QCD forces on very short distances…
