Hadron spectroscopy has been an essential part of the physics program with the CLAS detector in experimental Hall B at Jefferson Lab. Production of baryon and meson resonances with high energy (polarized) electron and photon beams was…
The shell-type supernova remnant RX J1713.7--3946 was observed during three years with the H.E.S.S. Cherenkov telescope system. The first observation campaign in 2003 yielded the first-ever resolved TeV gamma-ray image. Follow-up…
We study the near-threshold $J/\psi$ meson production on protons and nuclei by considering incoherent direct non-resonant $K^-p \to {J/\psi}\Lambda$ and two-step resonant ${K^-}p \to P_{cs}(4459)^0 \to {J/\psi}\Lambda$ charmonium production…
The interest to perform laser spectroscopy in the heaviest elements arises from the strong impact of relativistic effects, electron correlations and quantum electrodynamics on their atomic structure. Once this atomic structure is well…
The extention of the chiral soliton approach to hypernuclei - strange or heavy flavoured - becomes more reliable due to success in describing of other properties of nuclei, e.g. the symmetry energy of nuclei with atomic numbers up to ~30.…
Bound, strange, neutral superheavy nuclei, stable against strong decay, may exist. A model effective field theory calculation of the surface energy and density of such systems is carried out assuming vector meson couplings to conserved…
Nuclear alpha-clustering has been the subject of intense study since the advent of heavy-ion accelerators. Looking back for more than 40 years we are able today to see the connection between quasimolecular resonances in heavy-ion collisions…
The cranked relativistic Hartree+Bogoliubov theory has been applied for a systematic study of the nuclei around 254No, the heaviest nuclei for which detailed spectroscopic data are available. The deformation, rotational response, pairing…
We extend the theoretical approach which includes the dynamical and statistical stages for the description of the nucleosynthesis in central collisions of relativistic ions. Previously, this approach was successfully applied to describe…
We calculated the energy spectra of the neutron-rich He $\Lambda$ hypernuclei with $A=6$ to 9 within the framework of an $\alpha + \Lambda +Xn$ ($X=1$--4) cluster model using the cluster orbital shell model. The employed constituent…
The strange quark hadrons sit at an important crossroads between the light and heavy quark hadrons, but their spectrum is comparatively poorly known. The KLF experiment was recently approved to run in Hall D of Jefferson Lab, and will use…
We present ALICE results on strange and multi-strange hadron production as a function of centrality in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 2.76 TeV at the LHC. Their transverse momentum spectra, yields and particle ratios are…
For the first time, baryon-antibaryon photoproduction in the reaction $\gamma p \to \Lambda \bar{\Lambda} p$ has been observed at photon energies from threshold near 4.9 GeV to 11.6 GeV. The measurements are in progress with the GlueX…
We calculate the inclusive production of a polarized $\Lambda$ or $\bar{\Lambda}$ hyperon from the single longitudinally polarized proton and proton ($pp$) collision at RHIC. By comparing the data reported by the STAR Collaboration, we find…
The study of the spectrum and structure of excited nucleon states employing the electroproduction of exclusive reactions is an important avenue for exploring the nature of the non-perturbative strong interaction. The CLAS detector in Hall~B…
We review the present status of the experimental and theoretical developments in the field of strangeness in nuclei and neutron stars. We start by discussing the $\bar K N$ interaction, that is governed by the presence of the…

A general shell model formalism for the nonmesonic weak decay of the hypernuclei has been developed.It involves a partial wave expansion of the emitted nucleon waves,preserves naturally the antisymmetrization between the escaping particles…
The best examples of halo nuclei, exotic systems with a diffuse nuclear cloud surrounding a tightly-bound core, are found in the light, neutron-rich region, where the halo neutrons experience only weak binding and a weak, or no, potential…
