Hydrodynamic simulations have been pillars of nuclear theory for several
decades. Here we will show that we can construct transport theories that
capture all of the hydro features in the limit of very short mean free
path, but also are applicable for large mean free path scenarios, in which
hydro fails. We will solve a series of standard hydrodynamics test cases
and also who that we can...

The proton is a basic constituent of matter, but its fundamental properties like the radius are, in spite of all effort, still not understood properly. The measurements of the radius via interaction with electrons or muons yield significantly different results, leading to the so called proton radius puzzle.
To bring new insight into the observed discrepancy a new electron scattering...

The ratio method is a recent observable that has been proposed for the study of halo nuclei [1]. It consists of the ratio of breakup angular distribution and the summed angu- lar distribution (which includes elastic, inelastic and breakup) and removes the reaction model dependence. Originally, this method was developed for high and intermediate ener- gies and studies of the reactions of 11 Be...

In this study we model early times dynamics of relativistic heavy ion collisions by an initial color electric field which then decays to a plasma by the Schwinger mechanism, coupling the dynamical evolution of the initial color field to the dynamics of the many particles system produced by the decay. The latter is described by relativistic kinetic theory in which we fix the ratio $eta/s$...

The picosecond pulse of quasi-monoenergetic high-energy neutrons is produced in each interaction of relativistic heavy nuclei in light target.

Hard partons produced in the early stage of high-energy heavy-ion collisions suffer energy loss in the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) via gluon radiation and elastic collisions while propagating through this medium. Jet reconstruction provides access to the kinematics of these partons. Reconstructed jets are therefore powerful tools to study the properties of the QGP. Theoretical models predict a...

Charge symmetry of the strong interaction predicts that the Λp and Λn interaction and consequently their contribution to the binding energies of mirror hypernuclei are identical. In the system of A=4 hypernuclei, however, emulsion measurements found an exceptionally large difference of 0.35 ± 0.05 MeV for the ground state binding energies. Very recently gamma-ray measurements in Λ-He4 at...

The low-lying Kπ=2+ ex-“γ vibration” states...

From new precise data of the modern experiments, it becomes clear that the pure isobar model works only qualitatively and not able to describe the data in presence of many inelastic channels. The final state interactions modify the shape of isobars and produce additional structures on the Dalitz plot as well as on the 3 particles mass distribution. The first order correction to the isobar...

The charm quark as an intermediate case between the light and
the heavy quarks is on then hand
an interesting laboratory to test QCD, e.g. by the spectroscopy of its
hadronic states, on the other hand
it provides an important source for the flavor physics of an up-type
quark. In this talk I plan to give a
short overview of these two interlinked aspects of charm physics.

Coulomb breakup has been proposed as an indirect method to deduce the cross section of radiative captures of astrophysical interest [1]. In Coulomb breakup, the projectile dissociates into lighter fragments through its interaction with a heavy (high Z) target. Assuming the dissociation to be due to the sole Coulomb interaction, the reaction can be described as an exchange of virtual photons...

In the last years, the hyperon-nucleon interaction became the focus of attention by an astrophysical measurement of a quite heavy neutron star of two solar masses. Model calculations, which try to describe such a heavy star usually fail, because of the appearance of hyperons in the model predictions which lead to a too strong softening of the equation of state. Because the models need input...

Neutral mesons, such as $\pi^{0}$ and $\eta$, are probes for the study of the energy loss of partons traversing the hot and dense medium, the Quark-Gluon Plasma, that is formed in heavy-ions collisions. Moreover, they represent the largest background for the direct photon measurement and an accurate estimate is therefore necessary to determine the decay photon contribution.
