The Trump Administration’s Nuclear Posture Review: Back to Great Power Competition by Anna Péczeli

“…However, it also implemented important changes, especially with regards to the number and composition of nuclear forces. The new NPR re-introduced two low-yield warhead types in response to the deteriorating relations with Russia and China. …”

RUSSIA'S STRATEGIC DETERRENCE AND DEFENSE AGAINST POTENTIAL MEANS AND METHODS OF STRATEGIC ATTACK by A. I. Podberezkin, A. V. Zhukov

“…In addition, the authors analyze the recently adopted cruise missile systems in Russia and the United States, as well as anti-missile defense systems that alter the balance of power for a guaranteed response to strategic nuclear forces. Taking into account the current technological developments and the timeline for their implementation, the authors conclude that Russia has been able to achieve significant results in the field of aerospace defense, while naval defense and the introduction of new means of nuclear weapon delivery need additional attention from authorities. …”

Coulomb-free 1 S 0 p − p scattering length from the quasi-free p + d → p + p + n reaction and its relation to universality by Aurora Tumino, Giuseppe G. Rapisarda, Marco La Cognata, Alessandro Oliva, Alejandro Kievsky, Carlos A. Bertulani, Giuseppe D’Agata, Mario Gattobigio, Giovanni L. Guardo, Livio Lamia, Dario Lattuada, Rosario G. Pizzone, Stefano Romano, Maria L. Sergi, Roberta Spartá, Michele Viviani

“…This is consistent with the current understanding that the charge dependence of nuclear forces is due to different masses of up-down quarks and their electromagnetic interactions. …”

Uncertainty Analysis and Order-by-Order Optimization of Chiral Nuclear Interactions by B. D. Carlsson, A. Ekström, C. Forssén, D. Fahlin Strömberg, G. R. Jansen, O. Lilja, M. Lindby, B. A. Mattsson, K. A. Wendt

“…Chiral effective field theory (χEFT) provides a systematic approach to describe low-energy nuclear forces. Moreover, χEFT is able to provide well-founded estimates of statistical and systematic uncertainties—although this unique advantage has not yet been fully exploited. …”

Coulomb excitation and break up by Fatemian, M, Fatemian, Marzieh

“…It also shows that at high energies the nuclear forces become very strong and affect the classical Rutherford orbit of the projectile. …”

Regulation of cellular contractile force, shape and migration of fibroblasts by oncogenes and Histone deacetylase 6 by Ana López-Guajardo, Azeer Zafar, Khairat Al Hennawi, Valentina Rossi, Abdulaziz Alrwaili, Jessica D. Medcalf, Mark Dunning, Niklas Nordgren, Torbjörn Pettersson, Ian D. Estabrook, Ian D. Estabrook, Rhoda J. Hawkins, Rhoda J. Hawkins, Annica K. B. Gad, Annica K. B. Gad, Annica K. B. Gad

“…However, only tubacin-mediated, and not siRNA knockdown reversed the increased force of the invasive cells on their surrounding environment to normal, with no effects on nuclear forces. We observed that the forces on the environment and the nucleus were weakly positively correlated, with the exception of HDAC6 siRNA-treated cells, in which the correlation was weakly negative. …”

US Deterrence against Russia and China (based on strategic documents of J. Biden administration) by V. I. Batyuk

“…This primarily concerns the quantitative, rather than qualitative side of the equation: according to the US military strategists, Russia has made significant progress in modernizing its strategic nuclear forces and developing fundamentally new types of nuclear delivery vehicles. …”

The Peculiarities of the National Missile Defense by A. G. Arbatov

“…In addition, the US missile defense system is being built as an open-ended system with no future restrictions on its expansion and improvement.Russia has responded to the creation of the US national missile defense system with the modernization of its strategic nuclear forces and initiation of its own Air-Space Defense (ASD) system.The difference of the concepts of the BMD system development in the United States and the ASD system in Russia lies in that the US system is intended to defend against limited attacks of intercontinental ballistic missiles against the North American continent or of medium-range missiles against the US allies in Europe and the Pacific region. …”
