In the 2001-2002 running period of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), transversely polarized protons were accelerated to 100 GeV for the first time, with collisions at sqrt{s} = 200 GeV. We present results from this run for single…
A theoretically consistent approach to the calculation of the Coulomb correlation corrections to the single--particle energies is presented. New contributions to the single--particle energies previously overlooked in the literature are now…
Intermediate-energy heavy-ion collisions can produce a spin polarization of the projectile-like species. Spin polarization has been observed for both nucleon removal and nucleon pickup processes. Qualitative agreement with measured spin…
We made the first attempt to understand the observed unusual t dependence of single-spin asymmetry observed in the HJET experiment at RHIC. Usually, the interaction of hadrons is presented as a long-range Coulomb interaction and a…
The influence of the core polarization on the effective nuclear interaction of asymmetric nuclear matter is calculated in the framework of the induced interaction theory. The strong isospin dependence of the density and spin density…
In nuclear collisions induced by stable or radioactive neutron-rich nuclei a transient state of nuclear matter with an appreciable isospin asymmetry as well as thermal and compressional excitation can be created. This offers the possibility…
It is proven that a polarized neutron gets accelerated by internal nuclear forces along the coherent rotation of its spin. The net force upon the neutron arises from the weak nuclear interactions between its quarks. It is the result of the…
The theoretical nuclear physics predictions and experimental results on antiprotonic atoms lead to different proton and neutron spatial distributions. At CERN SPS energies production of positive and negative pions differs for $pp$, $pn$,…
Generalized symmetry energy coefficients of asymmetric nuclear matter are obtained as screening functions. The dependence of the isospin symmetry energy coefficient on the neutron proton (n-p) asymmetry may be determined unless by a…
We study a possible origin of single spin asymmetries in the large $p_T$ inclusive production of hadrons in the scattering of unpolarized protons or leptons on transversely polarized nucleons. Such asymmetry is related to the single-spin…
We compute nuclear spin dependent structure functions using a dynamical model for bound nucleon densities and hence calculate nuclear modifications to asymmetries observed in recent doubly polarised deep inelastic scattering experiments. We…
To understand the isospin effects in nearly symmetric nuclear matter we performed a complete systematical theoretical study within an Isospin dependent Quantum Molecular Dynamical Model (IQMD) and using Minimum Spanning Tree (MST)…
Reported here are transverse single-spin asymmetries ($A_{N}$) in the production of charged hadrons as a function of transverse momentum ($p_T$) and Feynman-$x$ ($x_F$) in polarized $p^{\uparrow}$+$p$, $p^{\uparrow}$+Al, and…
The energy dependence of the single-transverse-spin asymmetry, A_N, and the cross section for neutron production at very forward angles were measured in the PHENIX experiment at RHIC for polarized p+p collisions at sqrt(s)=200 GeV. The…
In neutrino-nucleus interactions, a proton produced with a correlated pion might exhibit a left-right asymmetry relative to the lepton scattering plane even when the pion is absorbed. Absent in other proton production mechanisms, such an…
In asymmetric heavy ion collisions like dA or pA, particle production yields are different in the forward (d- or p-side) and backward (A-side) rapidity directions. The rapidity distribution reflects the geometry and phase-space distribution…
In this paper we study nuclear effects in the neutrinoproduction of pions. We found that in a Bjorken kinematics, for moderate $x_{B}$ accessible in ongoing and forthcoming neutrino experiments the cross-section is dominated by the…
In the high-energy $p+p$ collisions, the transverse single spin asymmetry for very forward neutron production has been interpreted by an interference between $\pi$ (spin flip) and $a_1$ (spin non-flip) exchange with a non-zero phase shift.…
Linearly polarized light tuned slightly below the optical transition of the negatively charged exciton (trion) in a single quantum dot causes the spontaneous nuclear spin polarization (self-polarization) at a level close to 100%. The…
For any inclusive reaction of the type $A_1({spin} 1/2)+ A_2({spin} 1/2) \to B + X$, we derive new positivity constraints on spin observables and study their implications for theoretical models in view, in particular, of accounting for…
