A renormalization scheme for the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction based on a subtracted T-matrix equation is proposed and applied to the one-pion-exchange potential supplemented by contact interactions. The singlet and triplet scattering…
The electron pseudoscalar -- nucleon scalar $\mathcal{T}$,~$\mathcal{P}$-odd interaction within the framework of the Standard Model is considered as an exchange mediated by the Higgs boson at the quark-gluon level. $\mathcal{CP}$ violation…
From the recent measurement of parity nonconservation (PNC) in the Cs atom we have extracted the constant of the nuclear spin dependent electron-nucleon PNC interaction, $\kappa = 0.442 (63)$; the anapole moment constant, $\kappa_a = 0.364…
We review the physics of purely leptonic decays of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D^{\pm}$, $D_s^\pm$, and $B^\pm$ pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak-interaction-based CKM matrix element of…
Stimulated by the still puzzling competition between spin-singlet and spin-triplet pairing in nuclei, the 3SD1 neutron-proton pairing is investigated in the framework of BCS theory of nuclear matter. The medium polarization effects are…
Axions or similar hypothetical pseudoscalar bosons may have a small CP-violating scalar Yukawa interaction g_s(N) with nucleons, causing macroscopic monopole-dipole forces. Torsion-balance experiments constrain g_p(e) g_s(N), whereas g_p(N)…
We analyze spatial structure of the neutron Cooper pair in superfluid low-density uniform matter by means of BCS calculations employing a bare force and the effective Gogny interaction. It is shown that the Cooper pair exhibits a strong…
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…
Nuclear super-allowed $\beta$ decay has been used to obtain tight limits on the value of the CKM matrix element $V_{ud}$ that is important for unitarity tests, and therefore important for tests of the standard model. Current requirements on…
For purely leptonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons, the decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak interaction-based CKM matrix element of the constituent quarks on the one hand, and the strong interaction parameter, the…
A unified description of NN and pi-N elastic scattering is presented in the framework of the one solitary boson exchange potential (OSBEP). This model already successfully applied to analyze NN scattering is now extended to describe pi-N…
We analyse the sensitivity of all experimentally observable asymmetries and energy distributions for the neutron beta-decay with a polarised neutron and unpolarised decay proton and electron and the lifetime of the neutron to contributions…
If active neutrinos undergo non-standard (`secret') interactions (NS$\nu$I) the cosmological evolution of the neutrino fluid might be altered, leaving an imprint in cosmological observables. We use the latest publicly available CMB data…
The latest measurements of the atomic level width in Sigma-hyperonic Pb atom offer the most accurate datum in the region of low-energy Sigma-hyperon physics. Atomic widths are due to the conversion of Sigma-nucleon into Lambda-nucleon. In…
As a first result of two new partial-wave analyses, one of the pp and another one of the np scattering data below 500 MeV, we report a study of the long-range chiral two-pion exchange interaction which contains the chiral coupling constants…
We examine the effects of pseudoscalar and pseudovector coupling of the pi and eta mesons in one-boson exchange models of the NN interaction using two approaches: time-ordered perturbation theory unitarized with the relativistic…
Based upon the Bonn meson-exchange-model for the nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) interaction, we calculate the charge-independence breaking (CIB) of the $NN$ interaction due to pion-mass splitting. Besides the one-pion-exchange (OPE), we take into…
We examine the role of the elementary isoscalar pion--nucleon scattering amplitude in the description of the processes $pp \to pp\pi^0$ and $pp\to d\pi^+$ at threshold. We argue that the presently used tree level dimension two approximation…
We study the coherent photoproduction of pseudoscalar mesons---particularly of neutral pions---placing special emphasis on the various sources that put into question earlier nonrelativistic-impulse-approximation calculations. These include:…
Approximate analytical formulas for the self-consistent renormalization of P,T-odd and P-odd weak nuclear potentials by the residual nucleon-nucleon strong interaction are derived. The contact spin-flip nucleon-nucleon interaction reduces…
