Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) explores the first few minutes of nuclei formation after the Big Bang. We present updates that result in new constraints at the 2{\sigma} level for the abundances of the four primary light nuclides -…
The rates for lepton number washout in extensions of the Standard Model containing right-handed neutrinos are key ingredients in scenarios for baryogenesis through leptogenesis. We relate these rates to real-time correlation functions at…
We use Big Bang Nucleosynthesis calculations and light element abundance data to constrain the relative variation of the deuteron binding energy since the universe was a few minutes old, $\delta Q = Q(BBN)-Q(present)$. Two approaches are…
An essential part of experimental program at the future Electron Ion Collider is the study of the nuclear structure and dynamics at low $x$. DIS at low $x$ is characterized by large longitudinal coherence length that by far exceeds radii of…
We improve Standard Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (SBBN) calculations taking into account new nuclear physics analyses (Descouvemont et al. 2003). Using a Monte-Carlo technique, we calculate the abundances of light nuclei versus the baryon to…
We consider the problem of Coulomb corrections to the inclusive cross section. We show that these corrections in the limiting case of small charge number of one of the nuclei coincide with those to the exclusive cross section. Within our…
We study in detail the influence of the nuclear form factor both on the Born cross section and on the Coulomb corrections to the photo-production of muon pairs off heavy nuclei (gamma Z -> mu+ mu- Z$) and in heavy-ion collisions (ZZ -> ZZ…
Big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) is valuable as a means to constrain the physics of the early universe and it is the only probe of the radiation-dominated epoch. A fundamental assumption in BBN is that the nuclear velocity distributions obey…
We calculate the complete electroweak O(alpha) corrections to pp, pbar p -> l+l- X (l=e, mu) in the Standard Model of electroweak interactions. They comprise weak and photonic virtual one-loop corrections as well as real photon radiation to…
We review important reactions in the big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) model involving a long-lived negatively charged massive particle, $X^-$, which is much heavier than nucleons. This model can explain the observed $^7$Li abundances of…
The key Standard-Physics inputs of the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) are the light nuclei reaction rates. Both the network and the nuclear rates have been recently reanalyzed and updated, and cosmological and New-Physics constraints…
In models with an enhanced coupling of the Higgs boson to the bottom quark, the dominant production mechanism in hadronic collisions is often the partonic sub-process, bg ->bH. We derive the weak corrections to this process and show that…
The importance of a Coulomb correction to the formalism proposed by Albergo et al. for determining the temperatures of nuclear systems at break-up and the ensities of free nucleon gases is discussed. While the proposed correction has no…
In this study we present a comprehensive sensitivity atlas for Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) in which we quantify the dependence of the primordial abundances of helium-4, deuterium, and lithium-7 as well as $N_{\rm{eff}}$ on variations in…
We present updated and improved Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) constraints on heavy, long-lived beyond the Standard Model (BSM) relics $\phi$ decaying into pairs of Standard Model particles, covering a comprehensive set of two-body decay…
In light of the forthcoming high precision quasielastic electron scattering data from Jefferson Lab, it is timely for the various approaches to nuclear structure to make robust predictions for the associated response functions. With this in…
Sasankan et al, have recently claimed that there are significant deviations in the phase-space distributions of the kinetic energies of nuclei from the Maxwell-Boltzmann form usually assumed in BBN, and further, that these deviations lead…
I present a review of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis, concentrating on the statistical analysis of theoretical uncertainties, and on systematic errors in observed abundances. Both have important implications for constraints on the amount of…
We consider Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) with long lived charged massive particles. Before decaying, the long lived charged particle recombines with a light element to form a bound state like a hydrogen atom. This effect modifies the…
We report a significant improvement of an approximate method of including electron Coulomb distortion in electron induced reactions at momentum transfers greater than the inverse of the size of the target nucleus. In particular, we have…
