Galactic nuclei typically host either a Nuclear Star Cluster (NSC, prevalent in galaxies with masses $\lesssim 10^{10}M_\odot$) or a Massive Black Hole (MBH, common in galaxies with masses $\gtrsim 10^{12}M_\odot$). In the intermediate mass…
We propose to measure tagged deep inelastic scattering from light nuclei (deuterium and $^4$He) by detecting the low energy nuclear spectator recoil (p, $^3$H and $^3$He) in addition to the scattered electron. The proposed experiment will…

Superscaling analyses of few-GeV inclusive electron scattering from nuclei are extended to include not only quasielastic processes, but now also into the region where $\Delta$-excitation dominates. It is shown that, with reasonable…
The impact of nuclear mass uncertainties on the \emph{r}-process abundances has been systematically studied with the classical \emph{r}-process model by varying the mass of every individual nucleus in the range of $\pm0.1$ to $\pm3.0\…
Accurate measurements of nuclear reactions of astrophysical interest within, or close to, the Gamow peak, show evidence of an unexpected effect attributed to the presence of atomic electrons in the target. The experiments need to include an…
Atomic electrons are sensitive to the properties of the nucleus they are bound to, such as nuclear mass, charge distribution, spin, magnetization distribution, or even excited level scheme. These nuclear parameters are reflected in the…

Transverse momentum spectra of charged particles are measured by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in pPb collisions at sqrt(s[NN]) = 5.02 TeV, in the range 0.4 < pt < 120 GeV and pseudorapidity abs(eta[CM]) < 1.8 in the proton-nucleon…
Cross section ratios for deep-inelastic scattering from 14N and 3He with respect to 2H have been measured by the HERMES experiment at DESY using a 27.5 GeV positron beam. The data cover a range in the Bjorken scaling variable x between…
In this work we show the modifications of nucleon mass and nucleon radius with the help of the extended Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) model. We argue that even small departures above nuclear equilibrium density with constant nucleon mass…

A clustering aspect is explained for the $^9$Be nucleus in charged-lepton deep inelastic scattering. Nuclear modifications of the structure function $F_2$ are studied by the ratio $R_{\rm EMC} = F_2^A /F_2^D$, where $A$ and $D$ are a…
A simple model is used to explore issues related to self-similarity, intermittency and scaling behavior in nuclear collisions. Both scaled factorial moments and power moments are considered in the investigation of these features. The…
