The paradigm of $N$ quantum emitters coupled to a single cavity mode appears in many situations ranging from quantum technologies to polaritonic chemistry. The ideal case of identical emitters is elegantly modeled in terms of symmetric…
Neutrino-nucleus scattering $\nu A\to \nu A$, in which the nucleus conserves its integrity, is considered. We show that elastic interactions keeping the nucleus in the same quantum state lead to a quadratic enhancement of the corresponding…

A sixth-order quadrupole boson Hamiltonian is used to describe the states $0^+$ and $2^+$ identified in several nuclei by various types of experiments. Two alternative descriptions of energy levels are proposed. One corresponds to a…
Energy level splitting from the unitary limit of contact interactions to the near unitary limit for a few identical atoms in an effectively one-dimensional well can be understood as an example of symmetry breaking. At the unitary limit in…
Smashing nuclei at ultrarelativistic speeds and analyzing the momentum distribution of outgoing debris provides a powerful method to probe the many-body properties of the incoming nuclear ground states. Within a perturbative description of…
A composite symmetry of the nuclear structure, called multichannel dynamical symmetry is established. It can describe different cluster configurations (defined by different reaction channels) in a unified framework, thus it has a…
