Isoscaling and its relation to the symmetry energy in the fragmentation of excited residues produced at relativistic energies were studied in two experiments conducted at the GSI laboratory. The INDRA multidetector has been used to detect…

We consider a class of special Lagrangian subspaces of Calabi-Yau manifolds and identify their mirrors, using the recent derivation of mirror symmetry, as certain holomorphic varieties of the mirror geometry. This transforms the counting of…

We study the differential equations governing mirror symmetry of elliptic curves, and obtain a characterization of the ODEs which give rise to the integral ${\bf q}$-expansion of mirror maps. Through theta function representation of the…

We have measured the isospin mixing of the I$^\pi$= 1/2$^+$ E$_x$=2.599 MeV state in nearly-doubly-magic $^{47}$Ca with the isobaric analog 1/2$^+$ state of $^{47}$K. Using the TRIUMF atom trap for $\beta$ decay, we have measured a nonzero…

Based on an extended compound nucleus model, isospin effects in statistical fragment emission from excited nuclear systems are investigated. An experimentally observed scaling behavior of the ratio of isotope yields $Y_i(N,Z)$ from two…

Four groups (even-even, even-odd, odd-even and odd-odd) of heavy and super-heavy nuclei are of interest for the synthesis of the isotopes with $Z=119, 120$. We report calculations of $\alpha$~decay half-lives using four models: AKRA…

The non-mesonic weak decay of polarized Lambda-hypernuclei is studied for the first time by taking into account, with a Monte Carlo intranuclear cascade code, the nucleon final state interactions. A one-meson-exchange model is employed to…

Mirror symmetry is a type of infrared duality in 3D quantum field theory that relates the low-energy dynamics of two distinct ultraviolet descriptions. Though first discovered in the supersymmetric context, it has far-reaching implications…
