We report proton-proton correlation function measurements in central $^{132}$Sn+$^{124}$Sn and $^{108}$Sn+$^{112}$Sn collisions at 270 MeV/nucleon. The proton emitting source sizes are extracted for the systems by using femtoscopic imaging…
Significant effort has been devoted to searching for new fundamental forces of nature. At short length scales (below approximately 10 nm), the strongest experimental constraints come from neutron scattering from individual nuclei in gases.…

We studied the $^{12}$C(p,2p+n) reaction at beam momenta of 5.9, 8.0 and 9.0 GeV/c. For quasielastic (p,2p) events we reconstructed {\bf p_f} the momentum of the knocked-out proton before the reaction; {\bf p_f} was then compared…
