Short Contribution
Transport descriptions of heavy ion collisions in the intermediate energy range are an important method to extract information on the nuclear equation-of-state which is also relevant for astrophysical processes. Different transport model codes have been developed and applied widely. The physical deductions of such analyses should be independent as much as possible of the particular model, or...

Short Contribution
The breaking of rotational symmetry on the lattice for bound eigenstates of the two lightest alpha conjugate nuclei is explored. Moreover, a macroscopic alpha-cluster model is used for investigating the general problems associated with the representation of a physical many-body problem on a cubic lattice. In view of the descent from the 3D rotation group to the cubic group symmetry, the role...

Abstract
Recent developments in the experimental data on “collective” structures at low excitation energies have challenged the traditional paradigms of the essential physics involved in the underlying configurations. The importance of systematic experimental studies, that vary the deformations and asymmetries of...

Short Contribution
Despite decades of studies which have seen the nuclear charge distribution being measured with increasing precision, the neutron distribution remains elusive. The difference between the neutron and proton distributions is often expressed as the difference of their root mean square radii: the neutron skin thickness. Recently, the A2 collaboration at MaMi has measured the skin thickness in lead...

Short Contribution
The precise reconstruction of jet transverse momenta in heavy-ion collisions is a challenging task. A major obstacle is the large number of (mainly) low-$p_\mathrm{T}$ particles overlaying the jets. Strong region-to-region fluctuations of this background complicate the jet measurement and lead to significant uncertainties.
In this talk, a novel approach to correct jet momenta (or energies)...

Short Contribution
At the MESA accelerator in Mainz, Germany, the parasitic electron beam-dump experiment DarkMESA has a powerful discovery potential for dark sector particles in the light mass range. The possible existence of such light dark matter (LDM) is a candidate explanation for the long-standing dark matter problem.
With 10 000 hours of operation time scheduled for P2 beam experiment at MESA, the dump...
