We perform a systematic comparison between the results obtained by solving fully self-consistently the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov equations, and those obtained using the semi-classical Extended Thomas-Fermi method, for various Wigner-Seitz…
Electron number densities in stars and the Earth are inhomogeneous because of atomic electrons. The large inhomogeneities on atomic-scale tend to form at tops of respective layers of stars, and 1s electrons of O locally produce weak…
We review some results on the ionization conjecture, which says that a neutral atom can bind at most one or two extra electrons.
A review is given of attempts to describe nuclear properties in terms of neutron--proton pairs that are subsequently replaced by bosons. Some of the standard approaches with low-spin pairs are recalled but the emphasis is on a recently…
This work is an extension of our past study focused on a covariant representation of the electromagnetic (EM) current of spin-1/2 Dirac particles, specifically, nucleons. In the past study the EM responses that occur in unpolarized electron…
We study the feasibility of detecting exotic cores in merging neutron stars with ground-based gravitational-wave detectors. We focus on models with a sharp nuclear/exotic matter interface, and assume a uniform distribution of neutron stars…
Description of nuclear matter in the core of neutron stars eludes the main tools of investigation of QCD, such as perturbation theory and the lattice formulation of the theory. Recently, the application of the holographic paradigm (both via…
The nuclear symmetry energy determines the birth of neutron stars and the elementary nucleosynthesis in the universe. To constrain the nuclear symmetry energy, besides the studies in astrophysics, many terrestrial nuclear experiments are…
The process of $\nu \bar{\nu}$ radiation due to interaction of electrons with phonons in the crust of a cooling neutron star is studied with the consistent account of an electromagnetic coupling between electrons in the medium. The…
The semi-inclusive properties of the system of neutral and charged particles with net charge equal to zero are considered in the grand canonical, canonical and micro-canonical ensembles as well as in micro-canonical ensemble with scaling…
The equation of state for neutron stars in a wide-density range at zero temperature is constructed. The chiral quark-meson coupling model within relativistic Hartree-Fock approximation is adopted for uniform nuclear matter. The coupling…
We generalise the finite range momentum and density dependent Seyler-Blanchard nucleon-nucleon effective interaction to the case of interaction between two baryons. This effective interaction is then used to describe dense hadronic matter…
We present a modified Thomas-Fermi theory that describes the increase of the hyperfine coupling constants of endohedrally enclosed atoms. We use the March boundary conditions corresponding to a positively charged spherical shell surrounding…
Based on the Thomas-Fermi solution for compressed electron gas around a giant nucleus, $Z\approx 10^6$, we study electric pulsations of electron number-density, pressure and electric fields, which could be caused by an external…
Deeply inelastic scattering of electrons off nuclei can determine whether parton distributions saturate at HERA energies. If so, this phenomenon will also tell us a great deal about how particles are produced, and whether they equilibrate,…
Our ultimate goal is the construction of a model for interactions of two nuclei in the energy range between several tens of GeV up to several TeV per nucleon in the centre-of-mass system. Such nuclear collisions are very complex, being…
The physical interpretation of extensive measurements of electron neutrinos (in laboratories located on or somewhat below the Earth's surface) often require geophysical notions concerning the possible neutrino sources. Here, we discuss the…
Dynamics of the electron-nuclear and heteronuclear polarization-transfer processes in the optically oriented semi-insulating iron-doped indium phosphide were investigated through the characteristic time scales of the processes. (1) We find…
The Thomas-Fermi approximation is a powerful method that has been widely used to describe atomic structures, finite nuclei, and nonuniform matter in supernovae and neutron-star crusts. Nonuniform nuclear matter at subnuclear density is…
Interference terms between monopole and quadrupole Coulomb form factors that contribute to the cross-section of electron scattering from polarized nuclei are studied within the plane wave Born approximation. By experimentally exploring the…
