We investigate the isotopes of Se, Zr, Mo and Nd in the regions with N = 40, 60 and 90, where a first-order shape / phase transition, from spherical to deformed, can be observed. The signs of phase transitional behavior become evident by…
A combined analysis of the reactions $\pi^+p\to \pi^+p$, $\pi^-p\to \pi^-p$ and $\pi^-p\to \pi^0n$ is carried out with a chiral quark model. The observations are reasonably described from the $\Delta(1232)$ resonance region up to the…

We report the first electron paramagnetic resonance studies of single crystals and powders of Pr_{0.6}Ca_{0.4}MnO_{3} in the 300-4.2 K range, covering the charge ordering transition at ~ 240 K and antiferromagnetic transition (T_N) at ~ 170…
We examine which first order phase transitions are consistent with today's astrophysical constraints. In particular, we explore how a well-constrained mass-radius data point would restrict the admissible parameter space and to this end, we…
A two-dimensional Fourier transform of hadron form factors allows to determine their charge density in transverse space. We show that this method can be applied to any virtual photon induced transition, such as \gamma *(q)+N -> \pi N. Only…
The phase space density, $\rho^Q$, of quarks in nuclei is studied using realistic models of unintegrated quark distributions, known as transverse momentum densities (TMDs). If this density exceeds unity for matter at normal nuclear…
The helicity amplitudes of the $N(1520)$ and $N(1535)$ resonances in the $\gamma^*p\to N^*$ electromagnetic transition are studied in the constituent quark model using the impulse approximation, with the proton and resonances assumed to be…
The transition helicity amplitudes from the proton ground state to the $P_{11}(1440)$ and $D_{13}(1520)$ excited states ($\gamma_{v}pN^*$ electrocouplings) were determined from the analysis of nine independent one-fold differential $\pi^{+}…
An increase in the central density of a neutron star may trigger a phase transition from hadronic matter to deconfined quark matter in the core, causing it to collapse to a more compact hybrid-star configuration. We present a study of this,…
We find an interpretation of the recent finding that the central charge density of the neutron is negative by using models of generalized parton distributions at zero skewness to relate the behavior of deep inelastic scattering quark…
We study the N-Delta-gamma transition in the Dyson-Schwinger approach. The nucleon and Delta baryons are treated as quark-diquark bound states, where the ingredients of the electromagnetic transition current are computed self-consistently…
The possible occurrence of a first-order hadron-quark phase transition (FOPT) in neutron-star interiors remains an open question. Whether such a transition can be directly tested with improved observations is a key challenge. Here, we…
