Topological quantum matter exhibits a range of exotic phenomena when enriched by subdimensional symmetries. This includes new features beyond those that appear in the conventional setting of global symmetry enrichment. A recently discovered…

The key elements of the Unified Model are reviewed and checked against modern experimental data. For medium-mass or heavy nuclei it is found that separation between collective and intrinsic degrees freedom becomes invalid for after exciting…

Approximate expressions for correlation functions in binary inhomogeneous mixtures are derived in a framework of the mesoscopic theory [Ciach A., Mol. Phys., 2011, {\textbf{109}}, 1101]. Fluctuation contribution is taken into account in a…
There is much speculation and a modest amount of evidence that certain mesons might form quasi-bound states with nuclei to produce really exotic states of matter. For this to be a practical possibility, the interaction between the meson and…
Nuclear physics can be applied in various ways to the study of neutron stars. This thesis reports on one such application, where the relativistic mean-field approximation has been employed to calculate the equations of state of matter in…
Starting with a quark model of nucleon structure in which the valence quarks are strongly correlated within a nucleon, the light nuclei are constructed by assuming similar correlations of the quarks of neighboring nucleons. Applying the…
Using the Funtional Integrals Formulation is developes a self-consistent mean field expansion to evolution operators of a system composed by two subsystems. This is a general expansion and can be generalized for more of two subsystems,…
We use probabilistic methods to study properties of mean-field models, arising as large-scale limits of certain particle systems with mean-field interaction. The underlying particle system is such that $n$ particles move forward on the real…
