Charge symmetry breaking (CSB) in the $\Lambda$-nucleon strong interaction generates a charge dependence of $\Lambda$ separation energies in mirror hypernuclei, which in the case of the $A=4$ mirror hypernuclei $0^+$ ground states is…
We propose a new observable, named the mirror-skin thickness, in order to extract the strength of the charge symmetry breaking (CSB) term in an energy density functional (EDF). The mirror-skin thickness of $ N = 20 $ isotones and $ Z = 20 $…
We present a comparative study of the high-spin ${11/2}^-$, ${10}^+$ and ${27/2}^-$ nuclear isomers, observed commonly in the full semi-magic $Z=50$ isotopic and $N=82$ isotonic chains, which are found to display nearly identical…
The nuclear symmetry energy plays a key role in determining the equation of state (EoS) of dense, neutron-rich matter, which connects the atomic nuclei with the hot and dense matter in universe, thus has been the subject of intense…
LHCb data indicate a significant difference in widths between the B->K (or K^*) + e^+ e^- and B->K (or K^*) + {\mu}^+ {\mu}^- decays (April 2017). The width of the e^+ e^--channel is noticeably larger than that of the {\mu}^+…

A two-body quantum correlation is calculated for a particle reflecting from a moving mirror. Correlated interference results when the incident and reflected particle substates and their associated mirror substates overlap. Using the…
