Following the recent detection of 7Be in the outburst spectra of Classical Novae we report the search for this isotope in the outbursts of four recent bright novae by means of high resolution UVES observations. The 7BeII 313.0583, 313.1228…
Various theoretical calculations based on QCD or hadronic interactions predict that in addition to the recently observed dibaryon resonance $d^*(2380)$ with $I(J^P) = 0(3^+)$ there should also exist a dibaryon resonance with mirrored…
The COMPASS experiment at the CERN SPS has studied the diffractive dissociation of negative pions into the pi- pi- pi+ final state using a 190 GeV/c pion beam hitting a lead target. A partial wave analysis has been performed on a sample of…
Radiative decay of 21 resonances in the 55Mn(p,g)56Fe reaction was studied in the proton beam energy region Ep = 1.3 - 1.8 MeV. Branching of decay to many low lying bound states up to excitation energy Ex ~ 8 MeV was measured. Exact energy…

Recently, the BES collaboration observed a broad resonant structure X(1576) with a large width being around 800 MeV and assigned its $J^{PC}$ number to $1^{--}$. We show that the isospin of this resonant structure should be assigned to 1.…
The radionuclide 22Na is a potential astronomical observable that is expected to be produced in classical novae in quantities that depend on the thermonuclear rate of the 22Na(p,g)23Mg reaction. We have measured the strengths of low-energy…
Recent activity in solving the 'lithium problem' in big bang nucleosynthesis has focused on the role that putative resonances may play in resonance-enhanced destruction of 7Li. Particular attention has been paid to the reactions involving…
BES II data for the channel J/Psi -> gamma (piplus-piminus-piplus-piminus) are analysed from a sample of 58M J/Psi hadronic interactions. They reveal further detail in the J^{PC} = 0^{-+} sector for the 4pi channel. A broad 0^{-+} ->…
The Two-Rotor Model predicts two levels above the Scissors Modes with degenerate intrinsic energy. They have $J^{\pi}= 0^+,2^+$ and are referred to as overtones. Their energy is below threshold for nucleon emission, which should make them…
The decay channel J/\psi --> \gamma \pi^+ \pi^- \eta^{\prime} is analyzed using a sample of 5.8\times 10^7 J\psi events collected with the BESII detector. A resonance, the X(1835), is observed in the \pi^+ \pi^- \eta^{\prime} invariant mass…
