For a bound state internal wave function respecting parity symmetry, it can be rigorously argued that the mean electric dipole moment must be strictly zero. Thus, both the neutron, viewed as a bound state of three quarks, and the water…
Inelastic $\alpha$ scattering on 16O is studied at 400 MeV by using an ice target. Near the 4-alpha breakup threshold of 14.4 MeV, a broad peak is observed at an excitation energy of 13.6+/-0.2 MeV with a width of 0.6+/-0.2 MeV. The…
In order to determine polarized parton distributions we have made a new NLO QCD fit using all experimental data on spin asymmetries measured in the deep inelastic scattering on different nucleon targets. The functional form of such…

According to the Hugenholtz-Van Hove theorem, the nuclear symmetry energy $S(\rho)$ and its slope $L(\rho)$ at arbitrary densities can be decomposed in terms of the density and momentum dependence of the single-nucleon potentials in…

Large-angle elastic scattering of alpha-particle and strongly-bound light nuclei at a few tens MeV/nucleon has shown the pattern of rainbow scattering. This interesting process was shown to involve a significant overlap of the two colliding…
The large imbalance in the neutron and proton densities in very neutron rich systems increases the nuclear symmetry energy so that it governs many aspects of neutron stars and their mergers. Extracting the density dependence of the symmetry…

Based on mean field calculations with Skyrme interactions, we extract a constraint on the isovector effective mass in nuclear matter at saturation density $\rho_0$, i.e., $m_{v}^{\ast}(\rho_0)=(0.77\pm0.03) m$ by combining the experimental…
