We propose a novel method to measure the neutron-neutron scattering length using the $^{6}$He$(p,p\alpha)nn$ reaction in inverse kinematics at high energies. The method is based on the final state interaction (FSI) between the neutrons…

We investigate the high-energy fixed-angle scattering of pions and $\rho$-mesons in a bottom-up holographic QCD model. To this end, we generalise the approach of Polchinski and Strassler arXiv:hep-th/0109174 to write an ansatz for meson…
