We investigate the reactions p n -> d omega and p n -> d phi close to threshold and at higher energies. Near threshold we calculate the S-wave amplitudes within the framework of the two-step model which is described by a triangle graph with…
As part of the search for new physics beyond the Standard Model, we chose the determination of the Higgs boson decay width as one of the least experimentally determined values. The decay widths into the four fermions of the lightest and…
The 4Hep interactions at 2.7 GeV/c and 5 GeV/c initial momenta of alpha-particles are investigated using the 2m liquid hydrogen bubble chamber (the kinetic energies of the initial protons in the nuclear rest frame were Tp = 220 MeV and 620…
Coherent Lambda-Sigma coupling effect in Lambda_He^7 is analyzed within three-body framework of two coupled channels, Lambda-t-t and Sigma-tau-t, where tau represents trinucleon which is either H^3 or He^3. The hyperon-trinucleon (Y tau)…
New Physics searches at the LHC have increased significantly lower bounds on unknown particle masses. This increases quite dramatically the tension in the interpretation of the data: low energy precision data which are predicted accurately…
The phase variation of the sigma -> pi-pi amplitude is accurately determined as a function of mass from BES II data for J/Psi -> omega-pi-pi. The determination arises from interference with the strong b1(1235)-pi amplitude. The observed…
Measurements of the $pp \to pK^+\Lambda$ reaction at $T_p$ = 2.28 GeV have been carried out at COSY-TOF. In addition to the $\Lambda p$ FSI and $N^*$ resonance excitation effects a pronounced narrow structure is observed in the Dalitz plot…
Applying the effective amplitude, which is evidently consistent with general constraints from chiral symmetry, the pipi spectra in the relevant processes are analyzed, leading to a strong evidence for existence of the light sigma meson. It…
Based on the Skyrme energy density functional and the reaction $Q$-value, we propose an effective nucleus-nucleus potential for describing the capture barrier in heavy-ion fusion processes. The 443 extracted barrier heights are well…
Coherent photoproduction of \pi 0\eta\ on the deuteron, He3 and He4 nuclei is considered in the energy region from threshold to the lab photon energy 1.2 GeV. The transition amplitude is derived using impulse approximation. Effects of pion…
The 146Sm/144Sm ratio in the early solar system has been constrained by Nd/Sm isotope ratios in meteoritic material. Predictions of 146Sm and 144Sm production in the gamma-process in massive stars are at odds with these constraints and this…
Results of a combined analysis are presented for the production of $\omega$ and $\phi$ mesons in $\pi N$ reactions in the near-threshold region using throughoutly a conventional ''non-strange'' dynamics based on such processes which are…
Reaction cross sections of 169Tm(alpha,gamma)173Lu and 169Tm(alpha,n)172Lu have been measured in the energy range 12.6<=E_alpha<=17.5 MeV and 11.5<=E_alpha<=17.5 MeV, respectively, using the recently introduced method of combining…
Some of last year's progress made in hypernuclear physics is reviewed as follows: (i) resolving the $_{\Lambda}^5$He overbinding problem in single-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei [1]; (ii) arguing that the onset of binding double-$\Lambda$…
The low lying states in $^8$Be are believed to have a two-alpha cluster structure and hence a large intrinsic quadrupole deformation. An earlier calculation showed a large collective enhancement in gamma transition probability between the…
DWIA calculations of Lambda-hypernuclear production rates in stopped K- reactions on several p-shell targets used recently in experiments by the FINUDA Collaboration are reported. Chirally motivated K- + N -> pion + Lambda in-medium…
In this paper we present a measurement of the natural widths of $\Sigma_c^0$ and $\Sigma_c^{++}$. Using data from the FOCUS experiment, we find $\Gamma(\Sigma_c^0) = 1.55 +0.41/-0.37 \pm 0.38$ MeV/c^2 and $\Gamma(\Sigma_c^0) = 2.05…
