The aim of this Thesis is to contribute to the understanding of the nucleon structure through the study of two observables accessible in Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering (SIDIS) of high energy leptons off unpolarized protons: the…
High energy proton-proton and antiproton-proton elastic scattering are studied first in a model where the nucleon has an outer cloud and an inner core. Elastic scattering is viewed as due to two processes: a) diffraction scattering…

Isoscalar and isovector effective masses of the nucleon in nuclear medium are explored in the quasi-elastic electron scattering of nuclei with KIDS (Korea-IBS-Daegu-SKKU) density functional model. Effective masses are varied in the range…
A calculation of the deuteron polarization observables $A^d_y$, $A_{yy}$, $A_{xx}$, $A_{xz}$ and the differential cross-section for elastic nucleon-deuteron scattering at incident deuteron energies 270 and 880 MeV in lab is presented. A…
Recent neutron-scattering experiments on La(2-x)Sr(x)CuO4 single crystals by Wakimoto et al. have revealed that elastic magnetic peaks appear at low temperatures in both insulating (x=0.02-0.05) and superconducting (x=0.06) samples. We have…

Due to the dense environment, neutron stars (NSs) can serve as an ideal laboratory for studying the interactions between dark matter (DM) and ordinary matter. In the process of DM capture, deep inelastic scattering may dominate over elastic…

The distorted spin-dependent spectral function of a nucleon inside an A=3 nucleus is introduced as a novel tool for investigating the polarized electron scattering off polarized $^3$He in semi-inclusive DIS regime (SiDIS), going beyond the…
Possibility of using the polarized electron target (PET) for testing the neutrino nature is considered. One assumes that the incoming electron neutrino ($\nu_e$) beam is the superposition of left chiral states with right chiral ones.…

We demonstrate that a nonzero strangeness contribution to the spacelike electromagnetic form factor of the nucleon is evidence for a strange-antistrange asymmetry in the nucleon's light-front wave function, thus implying different…

Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) is a powerful probe of elementary excitations in solids. It is now widely applied to study magnetic excitations. However, its complex cross-section means that RIXS has been more difficult to…
