The nuclear symmetry energy characterizes the variation of the binding energy as the neutron to proton ratio of nuclear systems (e.g. finite nucleus, neutron star etc.) is varied. The densities associated to these nuclear systems vary over…
We investigate theoretically whether it is feasible to detect $\eta$- and $\omega$-nucleus bound states. As well as the closed shell nuclei, $^{16}$O, $^{40}$Ca, $^{90}$Zr and $^{208}$Pb, we also investigate $^6$He, $^{11}$B and $^{26}$Mg,…

We have presented a strategy to study nuclei and nuclear matters from first principles, namely, from QCD. We first compute nucleon-nucleon potentials numerically in lattice QCD, and then use them to investigate properties of nuclei and…
We propose a model for the production and suppression of J/\psi mesons in high-energy hadronic collisions. We factorized the process into a production of the $c\bar{c}$ pairs of relative momentum $k=k_c-k_{\bar{c}}$ convoluted with a…

We propose stable exotic nuclei bound with $\bar{D}$ and $B$ mesons with respecting heavy quark symmetry. We indicate that an approximate degeneracy of $\bar{D}$($B$) and $\bar{D}^{*}$($B^{*}$) mesons plays an important role, and discuss…

Forward rapidity $J/\psi$ meson production in proton-nucleus collisions can be an important constraint of descriptions of the small-$x$ nuclear wavefunction. In an earlier work we studied this process using a dipole cross section satisfying…
