The proton-neutron 2 particles - 2 holes correlations in superfluid nuclei, described by an effective, Josephson-type interaction ~[(P+N-)+(P-N+)], are studied within a boson approximation. The strength of this interaction is estimated…
Using selection rules imposed by the Pauli principle, we classify pairing correlations according to their symmetry properties with respect to spin, momentum, and energy. We observe that inhomogeneity always leads to mixing of even- and…

We extend the QCD Parton Model analysis by employing a factorized nuclear structure model that explicitly accounts for both individual nucleons and correlated nucleon pairs. This novel framework establishes a paradigm that directly links…
