Exact first-order effect of interactions on the ground-state energy of harmonically-confined fermions
Pierre Le Doussal, Naftali R. Smith, Nathan Argaman
We consider a system of spinless fermions, interacting with each other via a power-law interaction , and trapped in an external harmonic potential , in $d=…
Dependence of polytetrafluoroethylene reflectance on thickness at visible and ultraviolet wavelengths in air
S. Ghosh, J. Haefner, J. Martín-Albo +88
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is an excellent diffuse reflector widely used in light collection systems for particle physics experiments. However, the reflectance of PTFE is a fun…
Sensitivity of the NEXT experiment to Xe-124 double electron capture
G. Martínez-Lema, M. Martínez-Vara, M. Sorel +88
Double electron capture by proton-rich nuclei is a second-order nuclear process analogous to double beta decay. Despite their similarities, the decay signature is quite different,…
Novel observation of isospin structure of short-range correlations in calcium isotopes
D. Nguyen, Z. Ye, P. Aguilera +101
Short Range Correlations (SRCs) have been identified as being responsible for the high momentum tail of the nucleon momentum distribution, n(k). Hard, short-range interactions of n…
The CLAS12 Backward Angle Neutron Detector (BAND)
E. P. Segarra, F. Hauenstein, A. Schmidt +25
The Backward Angle Neutron Detector (BAND) of CLAS12 detects neutrons emitted at backward angles of to , with momenta between and MeV/c. It is po…
Deprojecting galaxy-cluster cold fronts: evidence for bulk, magnetised spiral flows
Yossi Naor, Uri Keshet, Qian Wang +1
Tangential discontinuities known as cold fronts (CFs) are abundant in groups and clusters of galaxies (GCs). The relaxed, spiral-type CFs were initially thought to be isobaric, but…
Quantum Computation and Arrows of Time
Nathan Argaman
Quantum physics is surprising in many ways. One surprise is the threat to locality implied by Bell's Theorem. Another surprise is the capacity of quantum computation, which poses a…
Mitigation of Backgrounds from Cosmogenic Xe in Xenon Gas Experiments using He Neutron Capture
L. Rogers, B. J. P. Jones, A. Laing +89
\Xe{136} is used as the target medium for many experiments searching for \bbnonu. Despite underground operation, cosmic muons that reach the laboratory can produce spallation neutr…
Probing few-body nuclear dynamics via 3H and 3He (e,e'p)pn cross-section measurements
R. Cruz-Torres, D. Nguyen, F. Hauenstein +125
We report the first measurement of the \eep three-body breakup reaction cross sections in helium-3 (He) and tritium (H) at large momentum transfer ($\langle Q^2 \rangle \ap…
A simple strategy for enhanced production of nanoparticles by laser ablation in liquids
Yaakov Monsa, Gyora Gal, Nadav Lerner +1
Upgrading the productivity of nanoparticles (NPs), generated by pulsed laser ablation in liquid (PLAL), still remains challenging. Here a novel variant of PLAL was developed, where…
Anharmonic Host Lattice Dynamics Enable Fast Ion Conduction in Superionic AgI
Thomas M. Brenner, Christian Gehrmann, Roman Korobko +3
Basic understanding of the driving forces of ion conduction in solids is critical to the development of new solid-state ion conductors. Physical understanding of ion conduction is…
Key to understanding supersonic radiative Marshak waves using simple models and advanced simulations
Avner P. Cohen, Guy Malamud, Shay I. Heizler
This article studies the propagation of supersonic radiative Marshak waves. These waves are radiation dominated, and play an important role in inertial confinement fusion and in as…

We present for the first time, discharge-free operation at cryogenic conditions of a Resistive-Plate WELL (RPWELL) detector. It is a single-sided Thick Gaseous Electron Multiplier…
Concepts of work in autonomous quantum heat engines
Wolfgang Niedenzu, Marcus Huber, Erez Boukobza
One of the fundamental questions in quantum thermodynamics concerns the decomposition of energetic changes into heat and work. Contrary to classical engines, the entropy change of…
Radiogenic backgrounds in the NEXT double beta decay experiment
NEXT Collaboration, P. Novella, B. Palmeiro +88
Natural radioactivity represents one of the main backgrounds in the search for neutrinoless double beta decay. Within the NEXT physics program, the radioactivity-induced background…
Demonstration of the event identification capabilities of the NEXT-White detector
NEXT Collaboration, P. Ferrario, J. M. Benlloch-Rodríguez +88
In experiments searching for neutrinoless double-beta decay, the possibility of identifying the two emitted electrons is a powerful tool in rejecting background events and therefor…
