In a series of recent papers, Ivanov et al. and Oberhummer et al. have calculated the rate for the $p + p \to d + e^+ + \nu_e$ reaction with a zero-range four-fermion effective interaction and find a result 2.9 times higher than the…

To study quantum dynamics in the non-relativistic regime, the standard practice is to use non-relativistic quantum mechanics, instead of the relativistic theory, because it is thought the approximate non-relativistic result is always close…

Various corrections to the eikonal approximations are studied for two- and three-body nuclear collisions with the goal to extend the range of validity of this approximation to beam energies of 10 MeV/nucleon. Wallace's correction does not…
A nonrelativistic unparticle can be defined as an excitation created by an operator with a definite scaling dimension in a nonrelativistic field theory with an approximate conformal symmetry. The point production rate of an unparticle has…
