We show that the strong dependence of the amplitude for $NN$ hard scattering on the collision energy can be used to magnify the effects of short range nucleon correlations in quasielastic $pd$ scattering. Under specific kinematical…
With neutron star applications in mind, we developed a theory of diffusion in mixtures of superfluid, strongly interacting Fermi liquids. By employing the Landau theory of Fermi liquids, we determined matrices that relate the currents of…
Spin-dependent short range interactions of free neutrons with matter may be searched for in various ways. This short note discusses pseudomagnetic precession of trapped ultracold neutrons in vicinity to bulk matter, which should be several…
We develop a theoretical method going beyond the contact-interaction approximation frequently used in mean-field theories of many-fermion systems, based on the low-energy T-matrix of the pair potential to rigorously define the effective…
Despite their feeble interactions, dense astrophysical neutrinos can behave collectively, exchanging flavor through waves of the neutrino plasma. Can collective interactions also induce pairing instabilities and reorganize the neutrino…
The onset of the 3PF2 superfluid phase in high-density neutron matter is studied within the BCS framework with two and three body forces. Owing to the strong correlations the energy gap is so sizeably quenched as to demand to reconsider the…
We study the energy of an impurity (polaron) that interacts strongly in a sea of fermions when the effective range of the impurity-fermion interaction becomes important, thereby mapping the Fermi polaron of condensed matter physics and…
We review selected aspects of the interior physics of compact stars, focusing on the microscopic and macroscopic manifestations of spin, magnetic fields, and nucleonic superfluidity and superconductivity. Spin statistics of fermions allows…
We calculate the nucleon contribution to the photon self-energy in a plasma, including the effect of the anomalous magnetic moment of the nucleons. General formulas for the transverse and longitudinal components of the self-energy are…
Despite the fact that different particle species can diffuse with respect to each other in neutron star (NS) cores, the effect of particle diffusion on various phenomena associated with NS oscillations is usually ignored. Here we…
We consider the neutrino self-energy in a background composed of a scalar particle and a fermion using a simple model for the coupling of the form $\lambda\bar f_R\nu_L\phi$. The results are useful in the context of Dark Matter-neutrino…
We explore low-density neutron matter and its behavior in proximity to the unitary limit. To that end, we construct unitary nucleon-nucleon potentials with infinite 1S0 neutron-neutron scattering lengths. We discuss the Berstch parameter in…
We develop a compressible liquid-drop model to describe the crust of neutron stars for which the role of the nuclear clusters, the neutron gas, and the electrons are clearly identified. The novelty relies on the contribution of the neutron…
The $^1S_0$ superfluidity of neutron matter is studied in the framework of the generalized Gorkov equation. The vertex corrections to the pairing interaction and the self-energy corrections are introduced and approximated on the same…
We study the electromagnetic properties of a system that consists of an electron background and a neutrino gas that may be moving or at rest, as a whole, relative to the background. The photon self-energy for this system is characterized by…
We generalise the finite range momentum and density dependent Seyler-Blanchard nucleon-nucleon effective interaction to the case of interaction between two baryons. This effective interaction is then used to describe dense hadronic matter…
We apply a large-scale summation of Feynman diagrams, including the class of parquet-diagrams {\em plus} important contributions outside the parquet class, for calculating effective pairing interactions and subsequently the superfluid gap…
Effective field theory of the in-medium nucleon-nucleon interaction is considered. The effective range parameters are found to be of a natural scale. The low density limit is discussed both in perturbative and nonperturbative situations. In…
The short-range and tensor components of the bare nucleon-nucleon interaction induce a sizeable depletion of low momenta in the ground state of a nuclear many-body system. The self-consistent Green's function method within the ladder…
Superfluidity in an ultracold Fermi gas is usually associated with either a negative scattering length, or the presence of a two-body bound state. We show that none of these ingredients is necessary to achieve superfluidity. Using a narrow…
