We tabulate the ground-state odd-proton and odd-neutron spins and parities, proton and neutron pairing gaps, binding energy, one- and two-neutron separation energies, quantities related to beta-delayed one- and two-neutron emission…
We analyze hypernuclei coming from fragmentation and multifragmentation of spectator residues obtained in relativistic ion collisions. These hypernuclei have a broad distribution in masses and isospin. They reach beyond the neutron and…
We employ the maximum entropy method to extract the valence quark distributions of the neutron at a low scale, \( Q_0^2 \). At this initial scale, the neutron is defined to contain only three valence quarks, with no contributions from sea…
We present results of a perturbative QCD analysis of deep inelastic measurements of both the deuteron and proton structure functions. We evaluate the theoretical uncertainty associated to nuclear effects in the deuteron, and we extract…

The x-ray cascade from antiprotonic atoms was studied for 106Cd, 116Cd, 112Sn, 116Sn, 120Sn, and 124Sn. Widths and shifts of the levels due to strong interaction were deduced. Isotopic effects in the Cd and Sn isotopes are clearly seen. The…
We perform a systematic study of all the traditional neutron magic nuclei with $N$ = 8, 20, 28, 50, 82, and 126, from the neutron drip line to the proton drip line. We adopt the deformed relativistic mean field (RMF) theory as our framework…

In exact density functional theory (DFT) the total ground-state energy is a series of linear segments between integer electron points, a condition known as "piecewise linearity". Deviation from this condition is indicative of poor…
