This paper reviews the puzzles in modern neutron lifetime measurements and related
unitarity issues in the CKM matrix. It is not a comprehensive and unbiased compilation of all …

A narrow near-threshold proton-emitting resonance (E x= 11.4 MeV, J π= 1/2+, and Γ p= 4.4
keV) was directly observed in B 11 via proton resonance scattering. This resonance was …

The next years will see the completion of the radioactive ion beam facility SPES (Selective
Production of Exotic Species) and the upgrade of the accelerators complex at Istituto …

We investigate how our baryon-loss limits from anomalous binary-pulsar period lengthening
can be interpreted microscopically to yield specific constraints on the particle physics of …

This whitepaper presents the research priorities decided on by attendees of the 2022 Town
Meeting for Fundamental Symmetries, Neutrons and Neutrinos, which took place December …

The nature of dark matter remains one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in elementary
particle physics. It might well be that the dark matter particle belongs to a dark sector …

The γ decay of the elusive narrow, near-threshold proton resonance in 11 B was
investigated at Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro (INFN) in a particle-γ coincidence …

Nuclear science is a broad and diverse discipline which bridges microscopic particle
physics and mesoscopic atomic/molecular physics. From the hot dense soup of quarks and …

The nucleus C 11 plays an important role in the boron-proton fusion reactor environment as
a catalyzer of the B 10 (p, α) Be 7 reaction which, by producing a long-lived isotope of Be 7 …

The excitation function of proton elastic scattering from Be 10 at keV energy is calculated
using the method of self-consistent Skyrme Hartree-Fock in the continuum. The calculation …
