The $\pi N$ potential includes the t-channel exchanges of the scalar-mesons $\sigma$ and f_0, vector-meson $\rho$, tensor-mesons f_2 and f_2' and the Pomeron as well as the s- and u-channel exchanges of the nucleon N and the resonances…
We use lattice QCD and the L\"uscher method to study elastic pion-nucleon scattering in the isospin $I = 3/2$ channel, which couples to the $\Delta(1232)$ resonance. Our $N_f=2+1$ flavor lattice setup features a pion mass of $m_\pi \approx…
A microscopic model for the $N\bar N\to\pi\pi$ process is presented in the meson exchange framework, which in the pseudophysical region agrees with available quasiempirical information. The scalar ($\sigma$) and vector ($\rho$) piece of…
We study vector meson photoproduction from the deuteron at high momentum transfer, accompanied by break-up of the deuteron into a proton and neutron. The large $-t$ involved allows one of the nucleons to be identified as struck, and the…

A resonance model for two-pion production in the pion-nucleon reaction is developed that includes information obtained in the analysis of pion-nucleon scattering in a meson-exchange model. The baryonic resonances Delta(1232), N*(1440),…
The exclusive photoproduction of $e^+e^-$ pairs from nucleons close to the vector meson production threshold ($1.4<\sqrt s <1.8$ GeV) results from two main processes: the emission of Bethe-Heitler pairs and the photoproduction of $\rho^0$-…
Coherent Compton scattering on light nuclei in the delta resonance region is studied in the impulse approximation and is shown to be a sensitive probe of the in-medium properties of the delta resonance. The elementary amplitude on a single…
The neutron and proton scattering with either deuteron or stable alpha particle can be modeled as a two particle system. In this paper, using Morse function as reference potential, inverse potentials have been computationally constructed…
The role of the low lying nucleon resonances beyond the $\Delta(1232)$ in the reaction $pp\to pp\pi^0$ near threshold is shown to be numerically significant by a calculation, which takes into account the pion re-scattering contribution…

Understanding nuclear effects is essential for improving the sensitivity of neutrino oscillation measurements. Validating nuclear models solely through neutrino scattering data is challenging due to limited statistics and the broad energy…
