Charged particles accelerated by electromagnetic fields emit radiation, which must, by the conservation of momentum, exert a recoil on the emitting particle. The force of this recoil, known as radiation reaction, strongly affects the…

The most energetic part of the electromagnetic spectrum bears the purest clues to the synthesis of atomic nuclei in the universe. The decay of radioactive species, synthesized in stellar environments and ejected into the interstellar…
The $^{12}$C$(\gamma,ppn)$ reaction has been measured for E$_{\gamma}$=150-800 MeV in the first study of this reaction in a target heavier than $^3$He. The experimental data are compared to a microscopic many body calculation. The model,…
It is shown that fusion of neutrons and protons to He-4 nuclei occurs in gamma-ray burst outflows in a process similar to big-bang nucleosynthesis in the early Universe. Only the surviving free neutrons can then decouple kinematically from…
Single-particle radiative mechanism of $\gamma$ emission embedded into the pre-equilibrium exciton model is used to calculate the $\gamma$ emission from a decay of $^{160}$Er$^{*}$ created in two different ways. The initial stage of a…

Total reaction cross sections are predicted for nucleons scattering from various nuclei. Projectile energies to 300 MeV are considered. So also are mass variations of those cross sections at selected energies. All predictions have been…
We present a reaction model to describe the fast removal of the $\alpha$-particle core in $^8$He nucleus with eventual emission of four neutrons. The obtained four neutron energy distributions allows to explain the sharp low energy peak…
Over the past two decades, electron scattering experiments have clearly exposed the limits of the independent particle model description of atomic nuclei. I will briefly outline the dynamics leading to the appearance of strong correlation…
Angular correlations for low-energy neutron induced $\gamma$ reactions are calculated using nuclear reaction formalism for multi level neutron capture with arbitrary multiplicities of $\gamma$ transitions. We confirm previous calculations…
We suggest that the $\gamma p \to \phi \eta p$ reaction cross section, in the kinematics where the $\eta p$ invariant mass in the final state lies between the threshold value (m$_p$+m$_\eta$) and the N*(1535) resonance mass, is largely…
We investigate the resonant process of nuclear excitation by electron capture, in which a continuum electron is captured into a bound state of an ion with the simultaneous excitation of the nucleus. In order to derive the cross section a…
The radiation of photons by electrons is investigated in the framework of quantum electrodynamics up to the second order in the coupling constant $e$. The $N$-particle, coherent, and thermal initial states are considered and the forms of…
Inclusive neutrino-nucleus cross sections are calculated using a consistent relativistic mean-field theoretical framework. The weak lepton-hadron interaction is expressed in the standard current-current form, the nuclear ground state is…
Sources of high-energy photons have important applications in almost all areas of research. However, the photon flux and intensity of existing sources is strongly limited for photon energies above a few hundred keV. Here we show that a…
Fusion cross sections of light nuclei are calculated by a complex potential and taking into account of conservation of angular momentum and parity. The nuclear potential is assumed to be as simple as a spherical complex square well with a…
We show that neutrino-photon reactions above $m_e$ are dominated by the reaction $\nu \gamma \to \nu e^+ e^-$. We calculate its cross-section and see that it is larger by several orders of magnitude than the cross-sections of other…
Atomic nuclei are quantum many-body systems of protons and neutrons held together by strong nuclear forces. Under the proper conditions, nuclei can break into two (sometimes three) fragments which will subsequently decay by emitting…
