For coherent photoproduction of phi and omega mesons from deuteron at forward angles, the isovector pi-exchange amplitude is strongly suppressed. We show a possibility to study the non-diffractive channels associated with the unnatural…
We discuss an asymmetry of the decay $\omega->e^+e^-$ in nuclear matter with respect to the electron and positron energies. This asymmetry is sensitive to the properties of the $\omega$ meson self-energy and, in particular, it has a…
The properties of nucleon-nucleon scattering inside dense nuclear matter are investigated. We use the relativistic Brueckner-Hartree-Fock model to determine on-shell and half off-shell in-medium transition amplitudes and cross sections. At…
Photoproduction of omega-meson is analyzed within meson exchange model and Regge model and compared to rho-meson photoproduction. An interplay between two models and uncertainties in data reproduction are discussed.
Near threshold omega meson photoproduction is studied with the CBELSA/TAPS experiment at the ELSA accelerator of Bonn University. Single as well as double polarization observables are measured using either linear or circular polarized…

We present a study of neutrino-nucleus interactions at the T2K experiment based on the GiBUU transport model. The aim of T2K is to measure $\nu_e$ appearance and $\theta_{13}$, but it will also be able to do a precise measurement of…
