Nanosecond pulsed barrier discharges in atmospheric pressure argon are simulated using spatially one- and two-dimensional fluid-Poisson models using the reaction kinetics model presented by Stankov et al. [1], which considers all ten argon…
Geiger-Nuttall Law is the simplest relation in radioactive decay relating the half-life and the decay energy. Initially restricted to $\alpha$ decay of individual isotopes, generalizations unifying different isotopes and decay modes under a…
Proton radioactivity is an important and common process of the natural radioactivity of proton-rich nuclei. In our previous work [J. H. Cheng et al., Nucl. Rhys. A 997, 121717 (2020)], we systematically studied the proton radioactivity…
Lattice QCD calculations of two-nucleon systems are used to isolate the short-distance two-body electromagnetic contributions to the radiative capture process $np \to d\gamma$, and the photo-disintegration processes $\gamma^{(\ast)} d \to…
To test the predictive power of ab initio nuclear structure theory, the lifetime of the second 2+ state in neutron-rich 20O, tau(2+_2 ) = 150(+80-30) fs, and an estimate for the lifetime of the second 2+ state in 16C have been obtained, for…
We propose a semi-microscopic model for the simultaneous emission of two protons. This model has the advantage of avoiding certain technical aspects of a fully microscopic 3-body framework, while also allowing the investigation of the…
Double-polarization observables in the reaction $\vec{e}p \rightarrow e'\vec{p'}\gamma{}$ have been measured at $Q^2=0.33 (GeV/c)^2$. The experiment was performed at the spectrometer setup of the A1 Collaboration using the 855 MeV polarized…

The two-phase thermodynamic (2PT) model {[}J. Chem. Phys., \textbf{119}, 11792 (2003){]} provides a promising paradigm to efficiently determine the ionic entropies of liquids from molecular dynamics (MD). In this model, the vibrational…
Two-neutrino double-beta ($2\nu\beta\beta$) decay has been used to constrain the neutron-proton part of effective interactions, which in turn is used to compute the nuclear matrix elements for neutrinoless double-beta decay, the observation…
A model to study two-proton emission processes induced by electron scattering is developed. The process is induced by one-body electromagnetic operators acting together with short-range correlations, and by two-body $\Delta$ currents. The…
