The trace anomalous energy contribution to the proton mass is a very important topic in non-perturbative QCD and hadron physics. In experiments, it is under the hot discussions on how to measure the trace anomalous energy.The QCD…

We study the inclusive strange axial-vector meson $K_1(1270)^+$ production in ${K^-}A$ reactions at near-threshold laboratory incident antikaon momenta within a nuclear spectral function approach, which describes incoherent direct…

The prospects of searches for anomalous production of hadronically decaying weak boson pairs at proposed high-energy muon colliders are reported. Muon-muon collision events are simulated at $\sqrt{s}=6$, 10, and 30 TeV, corresponding to an…

Heavy ion collisions at SIS energies (1-2 AGeV) offer an unique tool to probe the properties of hot and dense nuclear matter. In particular, the partial restoration of chiral symmetry is predicted to lead in this energy range to in-medium…

We investigate the associated strangeness Lambda K+ and Sigma0 K+ productions in proton-proton collisions within an effective Lagrangian model. The initial interaction between the two nucleons is modeled by the exchange of pi, rho, omega,…

Novel collective modes characterized by a $B_{4/2}$ ratio ($\equiv B(E2;4_1^+\rightarrow 2_1^+)/B(E2;2_1^+\rightarrow 0_1^+)$) less than 1.0 that were observed recently have been identified within the proton-neutron interacting boson model…

We have studied charged current $\bar\nu_l$ induced one pion production from $^{12}$C and $^{16}$O nuclear targets at MiniBooNE and atmospheric antineutrino energies. The calculations have been done for the incoherent pion production…

Absorptive corrections, which are known to suppress proton-neutron transitions with a large fractional momentum z -> 1 in pp collisions, become dramatically strong on a nuclear target, and they push the partial cross sections of leading…

A stochastic theory is developed to predict the spectral signature of proton-transfer processes and applied to infrared spectra computed from ab initio molecular-dynamics simulations of a single H$_5$O$_2{}^{+}$ cation. By constraining the…

We show that by exploiting the process of Coherent Elastic neutrino (v) Nucleus Scattering (CEvNS), neutrino measurements by nuclear reactor experiments appear to corroborate the evidence of the so-called X17 particle, which has been…

The recent KLOE measurement $\mathrm{BR}^{\eta\rightarrow\pi^{0}\gamma\gamma}_{\text{KLOE}} = (0.98\pm0.11_{\text{stat}}\pm0.14_{\text{syst}})\times10^{-4}$ is less than half the current world average, $(2.55\pm0.22)\times10^{-4}$,…

We investigate a two Higgs doublet model with extra flavour depending $U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry where $Z'$ boson interactions can explain the Atomki anomaly by choosing appropriate charge assignment for the SM fermions. For parameter region…

Positrons beam dump experiments have unique features to search for very narrow resonances coupled superweakly to $e^+ e^-$ pairs. Due to the continue loss of energy from soft photon bremsstrahlung, in the first few radiation lengths of the…

We show that the X17 vector boson, introduced to explain the ^8 Be anomalous decay, could play a crucial role in the explanation of the muon's (electron's) anomalous magnetic moment and the muonic Lamb shift. We further constrain the…

IceCube observations point to Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) as promising contributors to the observed astrophysical neutrino flux. Close to the central black hole, protons can be accelerated through magnetic reconnection to very high…

Prompt photon production is sensitive to the anomalous couplings of gluons to quarks, because it is mainly produced by quark-gluon scattering. We will examine the effects of the anomalous chromoelectric and chromomagnetic dipole moment…

The exclusive photoproduction of $e^+e^-$ pairs from nucleons close to the vector meson production threshold ($1.4<\sqrt s <1.8$ GeV) results from two main processes: the emission of Bethe-Heitler pairs and the photoproduction of $\rho^0$-…

We have repeated the experiment performed recently by Krasznahorkay et al., (Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 042501 (2016)), which may indicate a new particle called X17 in the literature. In order to get a reliable, and independent result, we used a…

The recent ATOMKI experiments provided evidence pointing towards the existence of an X17 boson in the anomalous nuclear transitions of Beryllium-8, Helium-4, and Carbon-12. In this work, we consider X17 boson contributions to the previously…

The forward-backward asymmetry $A_{FB}$ in top quark pair production, measured at the Tevatron, is probably related to the contribution of new particles. The Tevatron result is more than a $2\sigma$ deviation from the standard model…
