We present the first systematic nonlocal dispersive optical model analysis using both bound-state and scattering data of $^{16,18}$O, $^{40,48}$Ca, $^{58,64}$Ni, $^{112,124}$Sn, and $^{208}$Pb. In all systems, roughly half the total nuclear…
Parity violating electron scattering can measure the neutron density of a heavy nucleus accurately and model independently. This is because the weak charge of the neutron is much larger then that of the proton. The Parity Radius Experiment…

Neutron star matter spans a wide range of densities, from that of nuclei at the surface to exceeding several times normal nuclear matter density in the core. While terrestrial experiments, such as nuclear or heavy-ion collision experiments,…
