A heavy fourth family is an example of new physics which is well defined and familiar in some respects, but which nevertheless has radical implications. In particular it eliminates a light Higgs description of electroweak symmetry breaking.…
We describe the salient features of precise predictions for the processes e+ e- -> WW -> 4f(gamma) as obtained with the Monte Carlo generator RacoonWW, including the complete O(alpha) electroweak radiative corrections in the double-pole…

Current studies on heavy hadrons in nuclear medium are reviewed with a summary of the basic theoretical concepts of QCD, namely chiral symmetry, heavy quark spin symmetry, and the effective Lagrangian approach. The nuclear matter is an…
The extraction of neutrino oscillation parameters requires the determination of the neutrino energy from observations of the hadronic final state. The use of nuclear targets then requires the use of event generators to isolate the…
Modern nuclear structure theory is rapidly evolving towards regions of exotic short-lived nuclei far from stability, nuclear astrophysics applications, and bridging the gap between low-energy QCD and the phenomenology of finite nuclei. The…
Classical artificial neural networks have witnessed widespread successes in machine-learning applications. Here, we propose fermion neural networks (FNNs) whose physical properties, such as local density of states or conditional…
Nuclear transparency is calculated for high-energy, semi-inclusive $(e,e'p)$ reactions, by accounting for all orders of Glauber multiple-scattering and by using realistic finite-range $p N$ interaction and (dynamically and statistically)…
We propose a highly speculative phenomenological framework in which nuclear detonations and high-energy collisions serve as probes for hidden sectors with effective superluminal propagation. Motivated by analogies between acoustic and…

It has been shown for the first time that $NN$ interaction, at least in some partial waves, can be quantitatively described by the superposition of a long-range one-pion exchange and a short-range mechanism based on the complex pole in the…

Enhancing the radiative interaction between quantum electronic transitions is of general interest. There are two important properties of radiative interaction: the range and the strength. There has been a trade-off between the range and the…
