An overview of the GW SAID and ITEP groups' effort to analyze pion photoproduction on the neutron-target will be given. The disentanglement of the isoscalar and isovector EM couplings of N* and Delta* resonances does require compatible data…
Nuclear and Coulomb breakup of halo nuclei have been treated often as incoherent processes and structure information have been extracted from their study. The aim of this paper is to clarify whether interference effects and Coulomb-nuclear…
A theory of two-pion photo- and electroproduction off the nucleon is derived considering all explicit three-body mechanisms of the interacting $\pi\pi N$ system. The full three-body dynamics of the interacting $\pi\pi N$ system is accounted…

Collisions between nuclei at ultrarelativistic energies produce a color-deconfined plasma that expands explosively and rapidly reverts to the color-confined (hadronic) state. In non-central collisions, the zone of hot matter is transversely…

Modeling lepton-nucleus scattering with the accuracy required to extract neutrino-oscillation parameters from long- and short-baseline experiments necessitates retaining most quantum-mechanical effects. One such effect is the interference…
