We study charmonium production in hadron-nucleus collisions through the intermediate next-to-leading Fock space component $|(\bar{c}c)_8 g>$, formed by a colour octet $\bar{c}c$ pair and a gluon. We estimate the size of this state and show…
The calculation of the discrete atomistic energy of a crystal near the continuum limit encounters difficulties caused by the geometric discrepancy between the continuum region occupied by the body, and the discrete collection of lattice…
Nuclear structure models built from phenomenological mean fields, the effective nucleon-nucleon interactions (or Lagrangians), and the realistic bare nucleon-nucleon interactions are reviewed. The success of covariant density functional…

We investigate the dynamical generation of charmonium-like ($I=0$) with spin-parity $J^{PC}=0^{++}, 1^{++}, 2^{++}$, and $3^{--}$ in the mass range of $3.6$ to $4.3$ GeV. We employ the off-shell coupled-channel formalism, constructing…
The formations of the $K(\bar{K})$, $D(\bar{D})$, and $B(\bar{B})$ meson-nucleus bound states in ${\rm{^{16}O}}$, ${\rm{^{40}Ca}}$, ${\rm{^{90}Zr}}$, ${\rm{^{197}Au}}$, and ${\rm{^{208}Pb}}$ nucleus are investigated using the quark meson…

Relativistic Hartree equations for spherical nuclei have been derived from a relativistic quark model of the structure of bound nucleons which interact through the (self-consistent) exchange of scalar ($\sigma$) and vector ($\omega$ and…
Motivated by many observations of anomalies in condensed matter systems, we consider a new fundamental Hamiltonian in which condensed matter and nuclear systems are described initially on the same footing. Since it may be possible that the…
We study the nuclear medium effects on the $c\bar{c}$ time evolution and charmonium production, in a relativistic proton-nucleus collision. In particular, we focus on the fragmentation region of the nucleus where the formation length of the…
We adopt the continuum limit of a linear, isotropic, homogeneous, transparent, dispersion-negligible dielectric of refractive index $n$ and examine the consequences of the effective speed of light in a stationary dielectric, $c/n$, for…
In this paper we consider a model for a nucleon interacting with the $\omega$ and $\sigma$ mesons in the atomic nucleus. The model is relativistic, but we study it in the nuclear physics nonrelativistic limit, which is of a very different…
Bound state properties of few single and double-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei is critically examined in the framework of core-$\Lambda$ and core+$\Lambda+\Lambda$ few-body model applying hyperspherical harmonics expansion method (HHEM). The…
We present and discuss predictions for a cross section of bulk and single-particle properties in symmetric nuclear matter based on recent high-quality nucleon-nucleon potentials at N3LO and including all subleading three-nucleon forces. We…
Within the relativistic Hartree approach using a Lagrangian with density-dependent parameters respecting the chiral limit, it is found that the vacuum corrections from the nucleon Dirac sea soften the equation of state and favor the chiral…
The effective chiral theory of the in-medium NN interactions is considered. The shallow bound states, which complicate the effective field theory analysis in vacuum do not exist in matter. We show that the next-to-leading order terms in the…
We argue that many features of the structure of nuclei emerge from a strictly perturbative expansion around the unitarity limit, where the two-nucleon S waves have bound states at zero energy. In this limit, the gross features of states in…
We propose the (gamma,p) reaction as a means of producing possible quasi-bound states of omega mesons in nuclei. We use an effective Lagrangian, based on chiral SU(3) symmetry and vector meson dominance, in order to construct the…
We review a large body of predictions obtained within the framework of relativistic meson theory together with the Dirac-Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach to nuclear matter and finite nuclei. The success of this method has been largely…
We have constructed a Lagrangian model (SIG-OM) with coupling of sigma and omega mesons in the relativistic mean-field theory. Properties of finite nuclei and nuclear matter have been explored with the new Lagrangian model. The study shows…
