We have derived previously the relations between the neutrino masses and mixing angles in a dispersive analysis on the mixing of neutral leptonic states. The only involved assumption is that the electroweak symmetry of the Standard Model…

By working out the kinematics of double parton scattering at short relative transverse distances, we obtain an explicit link between the transverse centres of mass, of the two hard partonic interactions, and the contributions to the…

We continue to study the relationship between the size of the sum of a set and the common energy of its subsets. We find a rather sharp subexponential dependence between the doubling constant of a set $A$ and the minimal common energy taken…

The phenomenon of centrality scaling in the high-\pt spectra of $\pi^0$ produced in Au-Au collisions at $\sqrt s=200$ GeV is examined in the framework of relating fractional energy loss to fractional centrality increase. A new scaling…

We argue that the experimentally measured color transparency ratio is directly related to the interacting hadron wave function at small transverse separation, $b^2<1/Q^2$. We show that the present experimental data is consistent with pure…

At least three length scales are important in gaining a complete understanding of the physics of nuclei. These are the radius of the nucleus, the average inter-nucleon separation distance, and the size of the nucleon. The connections…

In systems of diffusing particles, we investigate large deviations of a time-averaged measure of clustering around one particle. We focus on biased ensembles of trajectories, which realise large-deviation events. The bias acts on a single…

The large values of the singlet and triplet scattering lengths locate the two-nucleon system close to the unitary limit, the limit in which these two values diverge. As a consequence, the system shows a continuous scale invariance which…

Scaling describes how a given quantity $Y$ that characterizes a system varies with its size $P$. For most complex systems it is of the form $Y\sim P^\beta$ with a nontrivial value of the exponent $\beta$, usually determined by regression…
