Sizeable mixing between the coexisting normal and intruder structures of $^{96}$Zr revealed through lifetime measurements
Lifetimes of excited states of the nucleus $^{96}$Zr were studied with the Doppler-shift attenuation method following the $^{94}$Zr($^{18}$O,$^{16}$O)$^{96}$Zr two-neutron transfer reaction.Comments on $\bf{η'}$ nuclei and on the $Λ$ binding energy of the hypertriton
I briefly discuss two apparent puzzles: (i) is the observation of $η'$(958) bound states in $^{11}$C at GSI [1] compatible with a nearly vanishing real part of $η'N$ scattering length [2]? and (ii)…QDMin: Coherent Quantum Minimum Finding for Nuclear Deformation Landscapes
Locating the minimum of a nuclear collective landscape can require many interacting many-body calculations.$α$-decay widths from two-potential approaches and WKB prefactors
The accurate calculation of $α$-decay widths can be obtained with several equivalent descriptions of the Gurvitz-Kalbermann two-potential approach (TPA) or a semiclassical WKB description having…Quantum Correlations Between Two Giant Dipole Resonances in Ultra-Peripheral Collisions
Mutual Coulomb dissociation in ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions is dominated by Giant Dipole Resonance (GDR) excitation, whose subsequent decays produce forward neutrons.Glauber Description of Reaction Cross Sections with Bogoliubov Many-Body Wave Functions
I developed a microscopic framework that connects relativistic nuclear density functional theory to high-energy reaction observables by incorporating many-body Bogoliubov wavefunctions, represented…Collinear Factorization and Evolution
The method of collinear factorization for high-energy inclusive cross sections has found wide use in the analysis of hadronic collisions.An Eigenvector-Continued Green's Function Method
Emulating the Green's function using reduced-order equations is challenging because of the amount of information it contains.Ab Initio Calculations of $^6$He + $p$ Reactions
The no-core shell model with continuum (NCSMC) is an ab initio framework for description of nuclear structure and reactions.Extracting the QCD speed of sound in the presence of quantum fluctuations
The equation of state of strongly interacting matter plays a %is one of the central quantities characterizing central role in characterizing quark--gluon plasma created in relativistic heavy-ion…Improved nonflow control for multiparticle correlators and system-size-dependent evolution from OO to Pb--Pb collisions at the LHC
Multiparticle correlations of event-plane angles, known as symmetry plane correlators (SPCs), and correlations of anisotropic flow amplitudes of different harmonics, known as symmetric cumulants…Systematic calculations of β-delayed fission probabilities using a microscopic framework
The process of $β$-delayed fission ($β$DF) consists of a mother nucleus $β$-decaying to different states of a daughter isotope, followed by fission of the latter with a probability that strongly…Probing the inner disk edge of rotating neutron stars with dipole excitations in finite nuclei
The nuclear equation of state shapes both the structure of rapidly rotating neutron stars and the orbital motion in their surrounding spacetime.Nuclei on the Light Front and Electron Scattering
This paper develops relativistic nuclear structure, motivated by past, current and future experi- ments at Jefferson Lab and the Electron-Ion Collider.Testing thermal equilibrium in heavy-ion collisions with electric-charge fluctuations
Relativistic heavy-ion collisions exhibit several phenomena commonly associated with the formation of a thermalized quark--gluon plasma.Side jump and anomalous Lorentz transformation of a coherent Dirac wave packet
Spin-orbit coupling makes the mean position of a spinning particle transform anomalously under a Lorentz boost, with an additional shift known as a side jump.Quantum Complexity and Stabilizer-State Expansions: From Pairing to Deformation in Fermionic Systems
Understanding how collective phenomena such as pairing and deformation emerge in interacting fermionic systems, and how the correlations underlying them shape the resources required for their…Digital Quantum Simulation of Dynamics in Interacting Fields
