Relativistic heavy ion collisions are studied assuming that particles can be described by a hadron gas in thermal and chemical equilibrium. The exact conservation of baryon number, strangeness and charge are explicitly taken into account.…
On general grounds based on quantum field theory the decay amplitude for $\Sigma^0 \to \Lambda \gamma$ consists of a parity conserving magnetic and a parity violating electric dipole transition moment. Because of the subsequent…
The $P$ and $T$ odd deuteron multipoles are calculated in the Reid nucleon-nucleon potential in the chiral limit $m_{\pi}\to 0$. The contact current generated by the $\pi$-meson exchange does not contribute to the anapole moment. The…
We propose a theoretical description of the superconducting state of under- to overdoped cuprates, based on the short coherence length of these materials and the associated strong pairing fluctuations. The calculated $T_c$ and the zero…
In case of superconductors whose electrons attract each other only if they are near certain centers, the question arises 'How many such centers are needed to make the ground state superconducting?' We shall examine it in the context of a…

The $pd$ radiative capture reaction plays a vital role in Big Bang nucleosynthesis and stellar proton-proton chain. The study of the low-energy reaction is challenging in both experiments and theories. Using the framework of potential…
We discuss the reaction $e p \to e \tilde{p} X$ in the one-photon exchange approximation, where it is in essence the reaction $\gamma^{*} p \to \tilde{p} X$. A large rapidity gap is required between the particle or particles of the proton…
Problems involving the capture of a moving entity by a trap occur in a variety of physical situations, the moving entity being an electron, an excitation, an atom, a molecule, a biological object such as a receptor cluster, a cell, or even…
Effects of the interladder one-particle hopping, $t_{\perp}$, on the low-energy asymptotics of a weakly coupled Hubbard ladder system have been studied, based on the perturbative renormalization-group approach. We found that for finite…
Neutron stars with large masses $\sim 2M_{\odot}$ require the hard stiffness of equation of state (EoS) of neutron-star matter. On the other hand, hyperon mixing brings about remarkable softening of EoS. In order to solve this problem, a…
We consider proton diffraction dissociation in the dipole Pomeron model, where the Pomeron is represented by a double pole in the $J-$plane, and show that unitarity can be satisfied without decoupling of the triple Pomeron vertex.…
The orbital upper critical field $H_{c2} $ is evaluated for isotropic materials with arbitrary transport and pair-breaking scattering rates. It is shown that unlike transport scattering which enhances $H_{c2} $, the pair breaking suppresses…
Electronic charge carriers in ionic materials can self-trap to form large polarons. Interference between the ionic displacements associated with oppositely charged large polarons increases as they approach one another. Initially this…
We calculate P-odd difference of the total cross-sections of the deuteron disintegration by left and right polarized photons. The relative magnitude of this difference in the threshold region is about 10^{-7}. Its experimental measurement…
A combination of numerical and analytical methods is employed to study a one-dimensional chain of identical atoms with adsorbates. We show that the electron-mediated interaction energy between two impurities can change sign and magnitude…
In a system with strong local repulsive interactions it should be more difficult to add an electron than to extract one. We make this idea precise by deriving various exact sum rules for the one-particle spectral function independent of the…
