Probing the neutron skin thickness in collective modes of excitation by Paar N., Horvat A.

“…Nuclear collective motion provides valuable constraint on the size of neutron-skin thickness and the properties of nuclear matter symmetry energy. By employing relativistic nuclear energy density functional (RNEDF) and covariance analysis related to χ2 fitting of the model parameters, relevant observables are identified for dipole excitations, which strongly correlate with the neutron-skin thickness (rnp), symmetry energy at saturation density (J) and slope of the symmetry energy (L). …”

Neutron stars from crust to core within the Quark-meson coupling model by Antić S., Stone J. R., Thomas A. W.

“…The quark-meson coupling model stands out with its natural inclusion of hyperons as dense matter building blocks, and fewer parameters necessary to obtain the nuclear matter equation of state. The latest advances of the QMC model and its application to the neutron star physics will be presented, within which we build the neutron star’s outer crust from finite nuclei up to the neutron drip line. …”

The axion-baryon coupling in SU(3) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory by Thomas Vonk, Feng-Kun Guo, Ulf-G. Meißner

“…As studies on dense nuclear matter suggest the possible existence of hyperons in stellar objects such as neutron stars, our results should have phenomenological implications related to the so-called axion window.…”

Pemphigus Foliaceus after COVID-19 Vaccination: A Report of Two Cases by Nguyen Nhat Pham, Thuy Thi Phan Nguyen, Thao Thi Phuong Vu, Hao Trong Nguyen

“…Autoimmune bullous diseases (AIBDs) following coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccination have been previously documented in medical literature, given the comparable nature of the RNA antigen in these vaccines to that of the cellular nuclear matter. However, pemphigus foliaceus has been reported less frequently than other postimmunization AIBDs worldwide. …”

Intersections of ultracold atomic polarons and nuclear clusters: how is a chart of nuclides modified in dilute neutron matter? by Hiroyuki Tajima, Hajime Moriya, Wataru Horiuchi, Eiji Nakano, Kei Iida

“…Abstract Neutron star observations, as well as experiments on neutron-rich nuclei, used to motivate one to look at degenerate nuclear matter from its extreme, namely, pure neutron matter. …”

Implications of parity-violating electron scattering experiments on 48Ca (CREX) and 208Pb (PREX-II) for nuclear energy density functionals by Esra Yüksel, Nils Paar

“…Within the energy density functional (EDF) framework, we investigate the implications of CREX and PREX-II data on nuclear matter symmetry energy and isovector properties of finite nuclei: neutron skin thickness and dipole polarizability. …”

Study of the influence of initial-state fluctuations on hydrodynamic simulations by Słodkowski Marcin, Gawryszewski Patryk, Setniewski Dominik

“…For this purpose, we prepared sufficient relativistic hydrodynamic program to study A+A interaction which allows analysing initial-state fluctuations in the bulk nuclear matter. For such an assumption, it is better to use high spatial resolution. …”

Dense and Hot QCD at Strong Coupling by Tuna Demircik, Christian Ecker, Matti Järvinen

“…The main ingredients of our setup are the nonperturbative V-QCD model based on the gauge/gravity duality, a van der Waals model for nucleon liquid, and the DD2 version of the Hempel-Schaffner-Bielich statistical model of nuclear matter. By consistently combining these models, we also obtain a description for the nuclear to quark matter phase transition and its critical end point. …”

Charmonium production in pPb and PbPb collisions at 5.02 TeV with CMS by Martín Blanco Javier

“…In addition, the measurements in pPb collisions allow to study the cold nuclear matter effects, being crucial to disentangle these from the QGP-related effects in PbPb collisions. …”

Strange Hadron Production in Au+Au Collisions at RHIC Beam Energy Scan by Zhou Yingjie

“…Strangeness production has been suggested to be a sensitive probe to the early-time dynamics of the nuclear matter created in heavy-ion collisions. Transverse momentum distributions and yields of strange hadrons provide important information on their production mechanisms and can help us probe the properties of the created medium and its evolution. …”

Superheavy Nuclei to Hypernuclei: A Tribute to Walter Greiner by Samanta Chhanda

“…Similarly, the demonstration that nuclear matter can be compressed 510 times of its original volume by nuclear shock waves, produced during heavy ion collision, led to the production of singleand double-lambda hypernuclei, as well as anti-matter nuclei. …”

Centrality-dependent modification of hadron and jet production in electron-nucleus collisions by Hai Tao Li, Ze Long Liu, Ivan Vitev

Pre-equilibrium emission to study clustering in nuclei by Fabris D., Gramegna F., Cicerchia M., Marchi T., Barlini S., Piantelli S., Bini M., Bruno M., Casini G., Cinausero M., D’Agostino M., Degerlier M., Gelli N., Mantovani G., Morelli L., Mabiala J., Olmi A., Pasquali G., Poggi G., Valdré S., Vardaci E., Fotina O.V., Kravchuk V.L., Colonna M., Ono A.

“…At variance with light nuclei, in the case of heavier nuclei there are no experimental evidences of such structure effects, since the determination of pre-formed clusters within nuclear matter is less obvious. The two systems 16O + 65Cu and 19F + 62Ni, leading to the same compound system 81Rb*, have been studied at the same beam velocity (16 AMeV). …”
