Dynamic Pion Studies in Nuclear Matter
… data. Finally, the effects of dynamic pions in nuclear matter are explored, and it is shown that even below pion-production threshold, allowing pions to propagate leads to a decrease in saturation density without significant change to the overall binding energy per nucleon.

A variational theory of nuclear matter
The hypotheticai system of nucleons known as nuclear matter provides a very interesting field of study with relevance to both nuclear physics and astrophysics. The task of finding nucleon-nucleon potentials that explain the empirical properties of nuclear matter, as well as the two-body data, has …

An investigation of pions in nuclear matter and nuclei
The Fermi-averaged pion-nuclear matter scattering matrix in the region of the N*(1232) resonance is calculated using two models, one incorporating a single channel (1=1) potential separable in the pion-nucleon relative coordinate and a realistic nucleon pseudopotential to investigate the effects of …

MICROSCOPIC THEORY OF INFINITE NUCLEAR MATTER AND NON-EMPIRICAL ENERGY FUNCTIONALS
Nuclear density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio theory are complementary approaches to nuclear structure. DFT can be applied to the whole nuclear chart, but relies on empirical energy density functionals (EDFs). As a consequence, predictions in regions where experimental data are lacking, …

Statistical models to describe nuclear matter at high temperatures and densities
In order to understand nuclear matter at high temperatures and densities formed in heavy ion collisions, it is useful to use statistical-thermal models to analyse the final state. We apply different types of statistical distributions and discuss their effects. We discuss the hadron resonance gas …

Estimating Cold Nuclear Matter Effects Using Jets In P-Pb Collisions At √snn = 5.02 Tev With The Alice Detector
… at RHIC and the LHC, a suppression of the nuclear modifi- cation factor for jets along with other strongly interacting particles has been observed relative to proton-proton collisions. To unambiguously determine if this suppression is due to the creation of a strongly interacting medium of …

Finite size corrections to the equation of state for nuclear matter near the phase transition hadron gas to quark gluon plasma
… and discussed. A new model to describe dense nuclear matter is developed. The model takes into account the different quantum statistical distributions of the hadrons. The grand canonical pressure partition function is used. to obtain the thermodynamic limit. The grand canonical partition …

Variational Theory of Hot Dense Matter
We develop a variational theory of hot nuclear matter in neutron stars and supernovae. It can also be used to study charged, hot nuclear matter which may be produced in heavy-ion collisions. This theory is a generalization of the variational theory of cold nuclear and neutron star matter based on …

Classical models of heavy-ion collisions
"We study the effects of the nuclear equation of state (EOS) on intermediate energy heavy-ion collisions using classical microscopic models. The role of the EOS on the disassembly of expanding, hot nuclear matter, as well as the experimental data on multi-fragmentation and collective flow …

We study the effects of the nuclear equation of state (EOS) on intermediate energy heavy-ion collisions using classical microscopic models. The role of the EOS on the disassembly of expanding, hot nuclear matter, as well as the experimental data on multi-fragmentation and collective flow phenomena, …

Hadronic gas models in particle production and phase transitions

A Kaon Trigger for FOPI : Development and Evaluation of a Trigger System for Strange Particles
… of heavy ions at high energies at SIS/GSI, nuclear matter can be exposed to high densities and temperatures. The FOPI experiment detects the traces of the charged particles produced in the nuclear reaction. Their analysis, in particular with respect to the strange K mesons, can extend our …

Variational theory of quantum fluids
… is applied to liquid 3He and the v2-model of nuclear matter. In 3He the correlation operator gives results in much closer agreement with experiment than that with the Jastrow wave function. A new set of hypernetted chain equations are then derived to allow the calculation of the excited st;ate …

… will also affect the production of J/'f/; (e.g., nuclear absorption, shadowing). To understand the suppression and enhancement of heavy quarkonia in A+A collisions, we must first understand how yields are modified by a nuclear medium where no hot matter is present. Light systems such as p+ A and …

BAYESIAN INFERENCE ON NUCLEAR DATA AND NEUTRON STAR OBSERVATIONS FOR THE NUCLEAR EQUATION OF STATE
Nuclear matter is defined as a uniform infinite system composed of neutrons and protons at zero temperature interacting only through the nuclear force. Although an idealisation, it is achieved, to a good extent, in the interior of nuclei, where the density is roughly constant and the interaction is …

The reconstruction of high-pt photons with the electromagnetic calorimeter of the ALICE experiment at the LHC.

Exploring the quark-gluon content of hadrons: from mesons to nuclear matters
… freedom. Moreover, the problem of describing the nuclear force from its quark-gluon origin is still open. While a direct solution of QCD to describe the hadrons and nuclear force is not possible at this time, we explore a variety of developed approaches ranging from phenomenology to first …

A complete calculation of Shear Viscosity in Strongly Interacting matter
… such an exotic state of Strongly Interacting matter can indeed exist, making it an established fact. Things in the finite baryon density opposite regime are much harder as QCD, and its Lattice formulation, cannot yield any quantitative prediction to date, due to the strong-colour confinement …
