It is shown that the electrostatic potential of atomic nucleus "seen" by a fast charged projectile at short distances is smeared quantum mechanically due to nucleus motion around the atomic center of inertia. For example, the "positive…
A brief review of searches for eta-mesic nuclei is presented with emphasis on photoreactions and results of a new experiment done at the LPI electron synchrotron are reported. Decay products of eta-mesic nuclei presumably formed by photons…
$\alpha$+$\alpha$ scattering has a long history since the first experiment by Rutherford and Chadwick in 1927 and has been studied thoroughly experimentally and theoretically. However, $\alpha$+$\alpha$ scattering has never been paid…
Understanding how specific components of the nuclear interaction shape observable properties of atomic nuclei remains a central challenge in nuclear structure research. While previous studies have focused on bulk observables such as nuclear…
The structure of eta-nucleus bound systems (eta mesic nuclei) is investigated as one of the tools to study in-medium properties of the N(1535) (N^*) resonance by using the chiral doublet model to incorporate the medium effects of the N^*…
Neutrino-nucleus $\nu A\to \nu A$ and antineutrino-nucleus $\bar\nu A\to \bar\nu A$ interactions, when the nucleus conserves its integrity, are discussed with coherent (elastic) and incoherent (inelastic) scattering regimes taken into…

T-odd P-even long-range electromagnetic interaction of a particle of spin 1/2 with the nucleus is considered. Though matrix element of the interaction is zero for the particles on mass shell, nevertheless, null test exists for the…
Understanding nuclear effects is essential for improving the sensitivity of neutrino oscillation measurements. Validating nuclear models solely through neutrino scattering data is challenging due to limited statistics and the broad energy…
I review the main features of the nuclear response extracted from electron scattering data. The emerging picture clearly shows that the shell model does not provide a fully quantitative description of nuclear dynamics. On the other hand,…
Realizing systems that support robust, controlled interactions between individual photons is an exciting frontier of nonlinear optics. To this end, one approach that has emerged recently is to leverage atomic interactions to create strong…
The properties of non-product states, both (anti)symmetrized and entangled, have been extensively studied in the literature. In this paper, by extending previous partial results, we introduce a general framework to describe atomic…
The uncoupled $P$-wave channels of nucleon-nucleon scattering are studied in an effective field theory (EFT) including a perturbative dibaryon field and perturbative pions. Good agreement between EFT results and the Nijmegen partial wave…
We review the relevance of neutrino-nucleus interactions at energy transfers below 100 MeV for accelerator-based experiments, experiments at lower energies and for astrophysical neutrinos. The impact of low-energy scattering processes in…

Background: Elastic scattering is probably the main event in the interactions of nucleons with nuclei. Even if this process has been extensively studied in the last years, a consistent description, i.e. starting from microscopic two- and…
