Within a transport model we search for potential probes of the isospin dependence of the in-medium nucleon-nucleon (NN) cross sections. Traditional measures of the nuclear stopping power are found sensitive to the magnitude but they are…

Recent ineleastic electron-proton scattering experiments have led to rather accurate values for the N->Delta transition quadrupole moment Q(N->Delta).The experimental results imply a prolate (cigar-shaped) intrinsic deformation of the…
The polarization dependence of the electromagnetic vertex for polarized proton is discussed. Such a dependence is shown to be a result of gluon polarization and gluon interactions with the constituents within proton. One more form factor is…
