This study demonstrates that the presence of sexaquark dark matter, hyperons, and quark matter in neutron stars systematically alters the quasi-universal relations of their fundamental (-mode) oscillations, suggesting that precise future gravitational-wave measurements of these modes could serve as clear signatures for detecting exotic matter and dark matter in stellar interiors.
This paper presents a novel Monte Carlo model using a classical trajectory approximation to calculate particle pair correlation functions in heavy-ion collisions, demonstrating that the method successfully fits experimental data and is highly sensitive to the source's spatio-temporal extent while being largely independent of the temperature parameter, thus advancing femtoscopic interferometry in the Fermi energy domain.
This paper proposes that the fragmentation of nuclear remnants in high-energy electron-nucleus collisions is a nonextensive process, utilizing partitioning methods and Tsallis statistics to predict multiplicity distributions for excited nuclei like Be, C, and O while highlighting potential deviations caused by -cluster structures.
This paper introduces the Cooperative Neural Network (CoNN), a baseline-free architecture that embeds physical priors directly into its structure to predict nuclear binding energies with high accuracy using only proton and neutron numbers, effectively replacing the need for hand-crafted physics features or theoretical baselines.
This paper applies Time-Dependent Hartree-Fock theory to investigate fusion and quasifission dynamics in heavy-ion reactions relevant to superheavy element production, demonstrating reasonable agreement with experimental data for Ca+U fusion and revealing the significant impact of tensor forces on shell effects in Ca+Bk quasifission.
This paper presents a comprehensive overview of recent ALICE measurements from Run 2 and Run 3 on photon-induced processes in ultra-peripheral collisions, covering exclusive vector meson photoproduction, nuclear breakup mechanisms, and inclusive photonuclear interactions to probe gluon saturation, quantum interference, and particle production dynamics in nuclear environments.
This paper utilizes the interacting boson model with configuration mixing, informed by microscopic mean-field calculations, to demonstrate that strong mixing between intruder prolate and normal oblate configurations drives the parabolic shape-coexistence behavior observed in the low-lying states of even-even tellurium isotopes near the middle of the neutron major shell.
This paper reports the first mass measurements of neutron-rich ytterbium isotopes (Yb), revealing an anomalously strong proton-neutron interaction in the "hole-hole" regime below Pb that challenges current mean-field models and aids in refining predictions for the r-process waiting point.
This paper predicts that the accretion-induced collapse of magnetized white dwarfs produces distinctive gamma-ray signatures from both r-process and iron-peak nuclei, which planned MeV gamma-ray telescopes could detect out to distances of approximately 30 Mpc, thereby offering a unique observational method to distinguish these events from binary neutron star mergers.
This paper presents a study of the mass spectra and mass differences of heavy hadrons containing bottom quarks using MILC's 2+1+1 flavor HISQ gauge ensembles, employing a mixed-action approach with NRQCD for bottom quarks, anisotropic Clover for charm, and O(a)-improved Wilson-Clover for light and strange quarks.
This paper presents a unified exact solution to the relativistic Boltzmann equation for a boost-invariant conformal gas on across all constant-curvature slicings, which reproduces known Bjorken and Gubser flows while introducing a novel analytic "Grozdanov flow" for hyperbolic foliations that naturally encompasses both hydrodynamic and free-streaming regimes.
This paper proposes that the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) can significantly advance the determination of nuclear weak charge form factors by providing continuous momentum transfer data across a wide range of nuclei, thereby resolving theoretical degeneracies in neutron density distributions that current single-point fixed-target experiments cannot address.
Using QCD sum rules, this paper investigates triquark-antitriquark hexaquark configurations to interpret the BESIII-observed and states, finding that two predicted candidates match the experimental masses while offering new predictions for $0^+0^-$ states and analyzing their decay modes.
Based on recent lattice evidence and 't Hooft anomaly constraints, this paper proposes that the chiral phase transition in hot QCD for massless flavors may be described by a conformal manifold of -dependent universality classes featuring an exactly marginal operator related to baryon density, rather than a standard Ginzburg-Landau critical point.
This paper investigates the energy loss of high-energy partons in anisotropic plasmas within the harmonic approximation, deriving a simple formula for the impact of anisotropy and demonstrating that the resulting medium length dependence exhibits universal limiting attractor characteristics consistent with QCD kinetic theory simulations.
This paper utilizes a modified HIJING Monte Carlo generator to demonstrate that event-by-event multiplicity fluctuations serve as a sensitive diagnostic tool for distinguishing between hot and cold media, validating energy loss models, and identifying signatures of a first-order phase transition in relativistic heavy-ion collisions.
This paper extracts the speed of sound in the quark-gluon plasma from ATLAS transverse momentum fluctuation data in ultra-central Pb+Pb collisions by correcting for detection biases and hadronization noise, yielding a result of that aligns perfectly with first-principles lattice QCD calculations.
This paper utilizes a three-quark light-front model to calculate the gluon Sivers function of a proton at moderately small and numerically determines its small- evolution via the BFKL anomalous dimension, revealing a power-law tail behavior of at high transverse momentum.
This paper synthesizes new threshold measurements of production from JLab experiments (007 and CLAS12) with previous GlueX data to confirm a consistent phenomenological determination of the -proton scattering length, while highlighting how upcoming J-PARC measurements will further clarify the systematic trend of vector meson-nucleon interactions predicted by the "young vector meson" hypothesis.
This paper demonstrates that a joint Bayesian calibration of low- bulk observables and high- tomographic data significantly tightens constraints on Quark-Gluon Plasma properties and resolves discrepancies in high- anisotropy predictions that arise when using low- data alone.
