Unitarity is the fundamental property of the S-matrix while its usage for a scattering of unstable particles has been subtle as unstable particles do not appear in the asymptotic states. Defining unstable-particle amplitudes as residues of…
Starting from a unitary, Lorentz invariant two-particle scattering amplitude , we show how to use an identification and replacement process to construct a unique, unitary particle-antiparticle amplitude. This process differs from…
Photon absorption by a quark in one nucleon followed by its high momentum transfer interaction with a quark in the other may produce two final-state nucleons with high relative momentum. We sum the relevant quark rescattering diagrams, to…
In nucleus-nucleus collisions, high-pt electron spectra depend on the medium modified fragmentation of their massive quark parents, thus giving novel access to the predicted mass hierarchy of parton energy loss. Here we calculate these…
Photon-induced reactions play a key role in the nucleosynthesis of rare neutron-deficient p-nuclei. The paper focuses on (gamma,alpha), (gamma,p), and (gamma,n) reactions which define the corresponding p-process path. The relation between…

Background: Nuclear reactions are complex, with a large number of possible channels. Understanding how different channels contribute to a given reaction is investigated by perturbing the continuous spectrum. Purpose: To develop tools to…
The link between the scaling function extracted from the analysis of (e,e') cross sections and the spectral function/momentum distribution in nuclei is revisited. Several descriptions of the spectral function based on the independent…
A survey of some results in the modern microscopic theory of properties of nuclear reactions with gamma-rays is given. First of all, we discuss the impact of phonon coupling (PC) on the photon strength function (PSF) because it represents…
We study the coherent photoproduction of pseudoscalar mesons---particularly of neutral pions---placing special emphasis on the various sources that put into question earlier nonrelativistic-impulse-approximation calculations. These include:…
The nucleon-nucleon short-range correlation NN-SRC is one of the key issues of nuclear physics, which typically manifest themselves in high-momentum components of the nuclear momentum distributions. In this letter, the nuclear spectral…
