The nature of the nuclear pairing condensates in heavy nuclei, specifically neutron-proton (spin-triplet), versus identical-particle (spin-singlet) pairing has been an active area of research for quite some time. In this work, we probe…
We generalize spin-rotation coupling to compound spin systems. In the case of muons bound to nuclei in a storage ring the decay process acquires a modulation. Typical frequencies for $Z/A\sim 1/2$ are $\sim 3\times 10^6$Hz, a factor 10…
It is shown that experimental meson states with spins J=0,1,2,3 in the energy range 1.9 - 2.4 GeV obtained in recent partial wave analysis of proton-antiproton annihilation at LEAR remarkably confirm all predictions of chiral symmetry…
The existence of a new spin-zero particle with a mass below the electroweak scale is predicted by several theoretical models. Searches for resonant production of photon pairs at the LHC are able to probe these models. We present a search…
We analyze the role of maximally aligned isoscalar pairs in heavy $N=Z$ nuclei by employing a formalism of quartets. Quartets are superpositions of two neutrons and two protons coupled to total isospin $T=0$ and given $J$. The study is…
Background: Until now the knowledge about nucleon resonances with a mass higher than 2 GeV has been scarce. Huge amounts of experimental data of the multipion photoproduction have been accumulated, and more can be expected in the future in…

The Wigner function and Wigner-Yanase skew information are connected through quantum coherence. States with high skew information often exhibit more pronounced negative regions in their Wigner functions, indicative of quantum interference…
Spin-$\ffh$ resonance contributions in pion-nucleon scattering are investigated within the coupled channel $K$-matrix approach for c.m. energies up to $\sqrt s=$ 2 GeV. All previously studied $\pi N$, $2\pi N$, $\eta N$, $K \Lambda$, $K…
The spin-1/2 chain with isotropic exchange J1, J2 > 0 between first and second neighbors is frustrated for either sign of J1 and has a singlet ground state (GS) for J1/J2 $\ge - 4$. Its rich quantum phase diagram supports gapless, gapped,…
We show that, under an appropriate out-of-plane static magnetic field, nuclear spins in a thin specimen on a surface acoustic wave (SAW) cavity can be resonantly excited and detected through spin-rotation coupling. Since such a SAW cavity…
This work is devoted to search and study scalar $\sigma_0 0^+[0^++]$ - mesons in the system of $\pi^+\pi^-$ from the reaction $np -> np\pi^+\pi^-$ at the impulse of the quasimonochromatic neutrons c from the data obtained in an exposure of…
Families of $J^P=1/2+$ nucleons (N(939), N(1440), N(1710), N(1880), N(2100), N(2300)) and $J^P=3/2-$ nucleons (N(1520), N(1700), N(1875) and N(2120)) are scrutinized from the point of view of the configurational entropy (CE). The mass…

We present a study of the prospects for coherence preservation in solid-state spin qubits using dynamical decoupling protocols. Recent experiments have provided the first demonstrations of multipulse dynamical decoupling sequences in this…
We probe the spin ($J$) and parity ($P$) of the Standard Model Scalar (SMS) using existing searches sensitive to its production rate and kinematic properties. In particular, we search for the SMS decaying to a pair of $b$-quarks produced in…
Finite nuclei such as those found in the chain of even tin isotopes from ^{102}Sn to ^{130}Sn, exhibit a near constancy of the 2^+_1-0^+_1 excitation energy, a constancy which can be related to strong pairing correlations and the near…
