Charge and isospin event-by-event fluctuations in high-energy pp-collisions are predicted within the Unitary Eikonal Model ({\bf UEM}), in particular the fluctuation patterns of the ratios of charged-to-charged and neutral-to-charged pions.…
Multi-pion correlation effect on the source distribution is studied. It is shown that multi-pion Bose-Einstein correlation make the average radius of the pion source become smaller. The isospin effect on the pion multiplicity distribution…
We use the Isospin Quantum Molecular Dynamics model (IQMD) to analyze the centrality dependence of the isospin ratio of pions, $\pi^-/\pi^+$. We find that the density dependence of the asymmetry potential, the Pauli blocking of the…
Quantum fluctuation expression of the baryon number for a subsystem consisting of hot relativistic spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ particles are derived. These fluctuations seems to diverge in the limit where system size goes to zero. For a broad range…
It has been recently shown numerically that the transition from integrability to chaos in quantum systems and the corresponding spectral fluctuations are characterized by $\frac{1}{f^{\alpha}}$ noise with $1\leq\alpha\leq 2$. The system of…
It is shown that isospin-breaking corrections to the pion-deuteron scattering length can be very large, because of the vanishing of the isospin-symmetric contribution to this scattering length at leading order in chiral perturbation theory.…
