Neutrino masses are yet unknown. We discuss the present state of effective electron anti-neutrino mass from $\beta$ decay experiments; effective Majorana neutrino mass from neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments; neutrino mass squared…
We measured the high-momentum quasi-elastic 12C(p,2p) reaction (at center of mass angle near 90 degrees) for 6 and 7.5 GeV/c incident protons. The three-momentum components of both final state protons were measured and the missing energy…
We present results on the spectrum of B and D mesons including radial excitations and discuss the pseudoscalar decay constant. The results are obtained at beta=5.7 in the quenched approximation using NRQCD for the heavy quark. To study…
The recent neutrino oscillation experimental results indicate that at least one neutrino has a mass greater than 50 meV. The next generation of double-beta decay experiments will very likely have a sensitivity to an effective Majorana…
Results of simultaneous measurements of beta-decay rate with the aid of Ge(Li)-detectors performed at two laboratories 140km apart (INR RAS, Troitsk, Co-60, and JINR, Dubna, Cs-137) during a period from 15.03.2000 till 10.04.2000, are…
Gamma decays were observed in $^{56}$Ca and $^{58}$Ca following quasi-free one-proton knockout reactions from $^{57,59}$Sc beams at $\approx 200$ MeV/nucleon. For $^{56}$Ca, a $\gamma$ ray transition was measured to be 1456(12) keV, while…

We used the 8$\pi$ $\gamma$-ray spectrometer at the TRIUMF-ISAC radiocative ion beam facility to obtain high-precision branching ratios for $^{19}$Ne $\beta^+$ decay to excited states in $^{19}$F. Together with other previous work, our…
We have measured the half-life of the superallowed 0+ -to- 0+ beta+ emitter 26Si to be 2245.3(7) ms. We used pure sources of 26Si and employed a high-efficiency gas counter, which was sensitive to positrons from both this nuclide and its…

Silicon isotopic ratios measured in meteoritic presolar grains can provide useful information about the nucleosynthesis origin of these isotopes if the rates of nuclear reactions responsible for their production are known. One of the key…
New measurements of the $\eta$ and $K^0$ masses have been performed using decays to 3$\pi^0$ with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. Using symmetric decays to reduce systematic effects, the results $M(\eta) = 547.843\pm0.051$ MeV/c$^2$ and…
The study of neutrinoless double beta decay has attracted much attention as it can provide valuable information about the mass and the nature of the neutrino. The double beta decay (DBD) itself is also of interest in nuclear physics. While…
