In fusion reactions, the Coulomb barrier selects particles from the high-momentum part of the distribution. Therefore, small variations of the high-momentum tail of the velocity distribution can produce strong effects on fusion rates. In…

Spectral functions do not fully describe quasielastic electron and neutrino scattering from nuclei because they only model the initial state. Final state interactions distort the shape of the differential cross section at the peak and…
A relativistic single particle model is used to calculate the inclusive $(e,e')$ reaction from $A=$12, 40, 56, 197, and 208 nuclei in the quasielastic region. We have shown that this model provides a very good description of the available…
We propose a method to probe weakly bound s-wave neutron components near the neutron emission threshold in heavy nuclei using Coulomb-assisted neutron transfer reactions. Weakly bound s-wave neutrons have large asymptotic amplitudes, which…
