Neutrino scattering on atomic systems at low-energy transfer is a powerful tool for searching the neutrino electromagnetic interactions. The regime of coherent elastic neutrino-atom scattering, i.e., when the atom recoils as a pointlike…
We derive ab initio optical potentials from self-consistent Green's function (SCGF) theory and compute the elastic scattering of neutrons off oxygen and calcium isotopes. The comparison with scattering data is satisfactory at low scattering…
In this paper we discuss the prospects to take a picture of an extended neutrino source, i.e., resolving its angular neutrino luminosity distribution. This is challenging since neutrino directions cannot be directly measured but only…
The recent theoretical and experimental activities in positronium (Ps) scattering by atoms and molecules are reviewed with special emphasis at low energies. We critically compare the results of different groups $-$ theoretical and…
Dark matter detectors will soon be sensitive to Solar neutrinos via two distinct channels: coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering and neutrino electron elastic scattering. We establish an analysis method for extracting Solar model properties…
We present a method to calculate neutron scattering cross sections for deformed nuclei using many--body wavefunctions described with multiple reference states. Nuclear states are calculated with the generator coordinate method using a low…
The article discusses how the pattern of elastic scattering of an electron on a pair of identical atomic spheres will look if we abandon the standard in the molecular physics assumption that, outside the molecular sphere, in the external…
The $^6$He+$^{12}$C elastic scattering data at beam energies of 3, 38.3 and 41.6 MeV/nucleon are studied utilizing the microscopic optical potentials obtained by a double-folding procedure and also by using those inherent in the high-energy…
Scattering of positronium (Ps) by helium atom has been investigated in a three-Ps-state coupled-channel model including Ps(1s,2s,2p) states using a recently proposed time-reversal-symmetric regularized electron-exchange model potential.…
We perform a first-principle calculation of optical potentials for nucleon elastic scattering off medium-mass isotopes. Fully based on a saturating chiral Hamiltonian, the optical potentials are derived by folding nuclear density…
We compute the cross section for neutrino-photon scattering taking into account a neutrino mass. We explore the possibility of using intense neutrino beams, such as those available at proposed muon colliders, together with high powered…
A set of global optical potential has been derived to describe the interactions of $^{6}$He at low energies. The elastic scattering angular distribution data measured so far for many systems, ranging from $^{12}$C to $^{209}$Bi, have been…
The Standard Model includes neutrinos as massless particles, but neutrino oscillations showed that neutrinos are not massless. A simple extension of adding gauge singlet fermions to the particle spectrum allows normal Yukawa mass terms for…
The scattering of photons off photons at the one-loop level is investigated. We give a short review of the weak field limit, as given by the first order term in the series expansion of the Heisenberg-Euler Lagrangian. The dispersion…
We propose possible methods to measure the nucleon electromagnetic form factors in presence of two-photon exchange. Using a general parametrization of the spin structure of the matrix element for elastic $eN$-scattering, in terms of three…
Recently it was discovered that periodic lattices of metamaterial scatterers show optical activity, even if the scatterers or lattice show no 2D or 3D chirality, if the illumination breaks symmetry. In this Letter we demonstrate that such…
Cross sections and spin asymmetries for elastic positron scattering and for the emission of positron bremsstrahlung in collision with nuclei of zero and half-integer spin are calculated within the relativistic partial-wave theory. For…
Many low energy hadrons, such as the rho, can be observed as resonances in scattering experiments. A proposal by L\"uscher enables one to determine infinite volume elastic scattering phases from the two-particle energy spectrum measured…
An analytic calculation of the differential cross section for elastic Compton scattering on the deuteron at photon energies \omega in the range of 25-50 MeV is presented to next-to-next-to-leading order, i.e. to an accuracy of \sim 3%. The…
We discuss the two-photon exchange contribution to observables which involve lepton helicity flip in elastic lepton-nucleon scattering. This contribution is accessed through the spin asymmetry for a lepton beam polarized normal to the…
