This review examines the tendency of light nuclei to exhibit clustering, where correlations
between nucleons result in the formation of precipitates, typically α particles. The …

We highlight the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in
theory and in experiment. We discuss how the strong interaction is intimately connected to a …

One of the key challenges for nuclear physics today is to understand from first principles the
effective interaction between hadrons with different quark content. First successes have …

Over the last decade, numerical solutions of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) using the
technique of lattice QCD have developed to a point where they are beginning to connect …

The quantization condition for two-particle systems with an arbitrary number of two-body
open coupled channels, spin, momentum, and masses in a finite volume with either periodic …

The observation of neutrino oscillations and hence non-zero neutrino masses provided a
milestone in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model. But even though we now …

Background: Entanglement plays a central role in a diverse array of increasingly important
research areas, including quantum computation, simulation, measurement, sensing, and …

We present the first calculation of coupled-channel meson-meson scattering in the isospin=
1, G-parity negative sector, with channels π η, KK¯ and π η′, in a first-principles approach …

Processes such as the scattering of alpha particles (4He), the triple-alpha reaction, and
alpha capture play a major role in stellar nucleosynthesis. In particular, alpha capture on …

The scalar meson D s 0*(2317) is found 37 (17) MeV below the DK threshold in a lattice
simulation of the JP= 0+ channel using, for the first time, both DK as well as s¯ c …
