A comparison between polarization-transfer to a bound proton in quasi-free kinematics by the $A(\vec e,e'\vec p)$ knockout reaction
and that in elastic scattering off a free proton can provide information on the characteristics of the bound proton. In elastic scattering, the ratio of the transverse ($P_x$)
to longitudinal ($P_z$) polarization-transfer components is proportional to the...
Neutrons have proved themselves to be a useful system to study topics in nuclear, particle, and astrophysics with high-precision, low-energy experiments. At the Fundamental Neutron Physics Beamline (FNPB) at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), the NPDGamma experiment investigated the hadronic weak interaction via the capture of cold neutrons on protons. Observation of the hadronic weak...
The two dimensional quantum chromodynamics (QCD) in the limit of infinite number of colors, known as the 't Hooft model, was originally formulated in the Light Front Dynamics (LFD). The theory is exactly solvable, while still bearing some resemblance to the 4 dimensional real world QCD in aspects such as confinement and mass gap, as well as the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry. Similar...
The study of anisotropic flow provides strong constrains to the evolution of the medium produced in heavy ion collisions and its event-by-event geometry fluctuations. The strength and predominance of these observables have long been related to collective behaviour in the formed medium. Recent results in small systems both at RHIC and LHC provide strong arguments for the formation of such...
