The linearly polarized quasi-real photons from the highly Lorentz-contracted Coulomb fields of relativistic heavy ions can fluctuate to quark-antiquark pairs, scatter off a target nucleus and emerge as vector mesons. In the process, the two…

We examine the contribution of general Z*ZH and gamma*ZH three-point interactions arising from new physics to the Higgs production process e+e- -> HZ. From Lorentz covariance, each of these vertices may be written in terms of three…
We propose that a significant positive deviation from 1/3 for the spin density matrix element $\rho_{00}$ of the $\phi$ meson may indicate the existence of a mean field of the $\phi$ meson generated in heavy-ion collisions. This explains…
We present the results from a series of two-dimensional core-collapse simulations using a rotating progenitor star. We find that the convection in these simulations is less vigorous because a) rotation weakens the core bounce which seeds…
Core-collapse supernova explosions play a wide role in astrophysics by producing compact remnants (neutron stars, black holes) and the synthesis and injection of many heavy elements into their host Galaxy. Because they are produced in some…
Two-particle correlations at small relative momenta give insight into the size of the emitting source. Of particular interest is the test of hydrodynamic models which predict a universal, apparent decrease of the extent of the system with…

In non-central high energy heavy ion collisions the colliding system posses a huge orbital angular momentum in the direction opposite to the normal of the reaction plane. Due to the spin-orbit coupling in strong interaction, such huge…
Core-collapse supernovae provide natural laboratories for the production of new light particles. In particular, axion-like particles (ALPs) can be constrained via SN1987A cooling arguments. However, significant astrophysical and nuclear…
