Effective field theories have been successful in describing nuclei up to the alpha particle but face significant challenges for larger nuclei due to leading-order instabilities. These issues can be addressed with the introduction of a fake…
Radiative capture of protons is investigated as a probe of clustering in nuclei far from stability. The first such measurement on a halo nucleus is reported here for the reaction $^6$He(p,$\gamma$) at 40 MeV. Capture into $^7$Li is observed…
The effective field theory approach is applied to the three-nucleon process of $S=1/2$ neutron-deuteron scattering in the S-wave, including the effective range parameters summed at all orders. This is achieved through a modification of the…
A systematic study of the root-mean-square distance between the constituents of weakly-bound nuclei consisting of two halo neutrons and a core is performed using a renormalized zero-range model. The radii are obtained from a universal…
We introduce a physically-motivated model of the matter power spectrum, based on the halo model and perturbation theory. This model achieves 1\% accuracy on all $k-$scales between $k=0.02h\,\mathrm{Mpc}^{-1}$ to $k=1h\,\mathrm{Mpc}^{-1}$.…
Recently published data on the Sachs electric form factor by the PRad collaboration (Nature {\bf 575}, 147-151) are analyzed to investigate their consistency with the known proton charge radius from muonic and electronic hydrogen…
Nucleon capture cross sections enter various astrophysical processes. The measurement of proton capture on nuclei at astrophysically relevant low energies is a challenge, and theoretical computations in this long-wavelength regime are…
The neutron-rich 6He and 8He isotopes exhibit an exotic nuclear structure that consists of a tightly bound 4He-like core with additional neutrons orbiting at a relatively large distance, forming a halo. Recent experimental efforts have…
The astrophysical S-factor of the 4He-12C radiative capture is calculated in the potential model at the energy range 0.1-2.0 MeV. Radiative capture 12C(\alpha,\gamma)16O is extremely relevant for the fate of massive stars and determines if…
Nuclear effective field theory is applied to the effective range expansion of S-wave nucleon-nucleon scattering on a discrete lattice. Lattice regularization is demonstrated to yield the effective range expansion in the same way as in the…
By combining the constraints of charge symmetry with new chiral extrapolation techniques and recent low-mass quenched lattice QCD simulations of the individual quark contributions to the electric charge radii of the baryon octet, we obtain…
We discuss the experimental indications on the behaviour of F_2(x,Q^2) at small x both in proton and nuclear targets. By comparing the parametrizations of the data we conclude that shadowing correction effects in a proton target can appear…
We employ an effective field theory (EFT) that exploits the separation of scales in the p-wave halo nucleus $^8\mathrm{B}$ to describe the process $^7\mathrm{Be}(p,\gamma)^8\mathrm{B}$ up to a center-of-mass energy of 500 keV. The…
A new numerical model of particle propagation in the Galaxy has been developed, which allows the study of cosmic-ray and gamma-ray production and propagation in 2D or 3D, including a full reaction network. This is a further development of…
The E1 contribution to the capture reaction $^7\mathrm{Li}(n,\gamma)^8\mathrm{Li}$ is calculated at low energies. We employ a coupled-channel formalism to account for the $^7\mathrm{Li}^\star$ excited core contribution. We develop a halo…
The inelastic scattering of electrons on weakly-bound nuclei is studied with a simple model based on the long range behavior of the bound state wavefunction and on the effective-range expansion for the continuum wavefunctions. Three…
We report on a comprehensive reinterpretation of the existing cross-section data for elastic electron-proton scattering obtained by the initial-state radiation technique, resulting in a significantly improved accuracy of the extracted…
The absorption rate of low-energy, or soft, electromagnetic radiation by spherically symmetric black holes in arbitrary dimensions is shown to be fixed by conservation of energy and large gauge transformations. We interpret this result as…
We present an analysis of $13$ observables in Compton scattering on the proton. Cross sections, asymmetries with polarised beam and/or targets, and polarisation-transfer observables are investigated for energies up to the $\Delta(1232)$…
We compute the $S$-factor of the proton-proton ($pp$) fusion reaction using chiral effective field theory ($\chi$EFT) up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) and perform a rigorous uncertainty analysis of the results. We quantify the…
