Nuclear transparency in the (e,e'p) reaction for 135 < Tp < 800 MeV is investigated using the distorted wave approximation. Calculations using density-dependent effective interactions are compared with phenomenological optical potentials.…

The axion-like particle (ALP) is a well motivated new particle candidate of beyond the Standard Model. In this work, we propose to probe the ALP through the photon fusion scattering at the upcoming Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) with electron…

Based on the theory of the optical properties of fractal clusters, which is an operator-based modification of the coupled-dipole method, an alternate solution is proposed for the problem of adequately describing the evolution of optical…

The lowest electronic excitations of benzene and a set of donor-acceptor molecular complexes are calculated for the gas phase and on the Al(111) surface using the many-body Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE). The energy of the charge-transfer…

The optical response of nickel is studied in a wide range of laser fluence, below and above the ablation threshold, by selfreflectivity measurements of ultrashort 800nm single laser pulses. At the ablation threshold, the reflectivity…

Charged-particle pseudorapidity densities are presented for the d+Au reaction at sqrt{s_{NN}}=200 GeV with -4.2 <= eta <= 4.2$. The results, from the BRAHMS experiment at RHIC, are shown for minimum-bias events and 0-30%, 30-60%, and 60-80%…

Absorption efficiency profiles and localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) wavelengths are reported for metallic core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) placed over a BK7 glass substrate. A numerical study is performed with the vectorized version…

The semi-magic nuclei Ba-138, Ce-140, and Sm-144 have been investigated in photon scattering experiments up to an excitation energy of about 10 MeV. The distribution of the electric dipole strength shows a resonance like structure at…

The emergence of nuclear collectivity near doubly-magic $^{132}$Sn was explored along the stable, even-even $^{124-130}$Te isotopes. Preliminary measurements of the $B(E2;4^{+}_{1}\rightarrow2^{+}_{1})$ transition strengths are reported…

The electron reflection amplitude $R$ at stacking-fault (SF) induced fractional steps is determined for Ag(111) surface states using a low temperature scanning tunneling microscope. Unexpectedly, $R$ remains as high as $0.6 \sim 0.8$ as…

We present results of ab initio theoretical investigations of the excitation spectra of correlated electrons in metals (Al, K, and Li) and their interplay with inelastic scattering experiments. We resolve various anomalies contained in the…

Excitation functions for total reaction cross sections, $\sigma_R$, were measured for the light, mainly proton-rich nuclei $^6$Li, $^7$Be, $^{10}$B, $^{9,10,11}$C, $^{12}$N, $^{13,15}$O, and $^{17}$Ne incident on a Si telescope at energies…

To examine the applicability of the time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) for treating the electron-nucleus coupling in excited states, we calculate the strength distribution associated with the pi-pi* transition in ethylene. The…

We study the temperature-dependent optical properties of gold over a broad energy spectrum covering photon energies below and above the interband threshold. We apply a semi-analytical Drude-Lorentz model with temperature-dependent…

In this paper, we present a theoretical investigation of photoabsorption spectrum of the newly synthesized hydrogenated cluster of aluminium, Al4H6. The calculations are performed within the wave-function-based semi-empirical method…

The interest to foster plasmonic applications at energies in the ultra-violet, has escalated research initiatives in clusters of unconventional plasmonic materials like aluminum and indium,for which the surface-plasmon resonance appears…

In this work, we have investigated the interaction of a high-power Ar$^+$ laser beam, in a continuous multi-line regime, with Ag$^+$-doped glass samples. The samples were subjected to the irradiation after the ion-exchange step. As a result…

A full set of calculations is presented for inner-shell n = 2 to 3 photoexcitation of the 16 iron charge states: Fe I through Fe XVI. The blend of the numerous absorption lines arising from these excitations (mainly 2p - 3d) forms an…
