Theory of Majorana-Type Heavy Ion Double Charge Exchange Reactions by Pion--Nucleon Isotensor Interactions
Horst Lenske, Jessica Bellone, Maria Colonna +1
The theory of heavy ion double charge exchange (DCE) reactions proceeding by effective rank-2 isotensor interactions is presented. Virtual pion--nucleon charge exchange interaction…
Induced Isotensor Interactions in Heavy-Ion Double-Charge-Exchange Reactions and the Role of Initial and Final State Interactions
Horst Lenske, Jessica Bellone, Danilo Gambacurta +1
The role of initial state (ISI) and final state (FSI) ion-ion interactions in heavy-ion double-charge-exchange (DCE) reactions are studied for double s…
Formal Theory of Heavy Ion Double Charge Exchange Reactions
Horst Lenske, Jessica Bellone, Maria Colonna +2
The theory of heavy ion double charge exchange (DCE) reactions is recapitulated emphasizing the role of Double Single Charge Exchange (DSCE) and pion-n…
Multi-channel experimental and theoretical constraints for the Cd(Ne,F)In charge exchange reaction at 306 MeV
S. Burrello, S. Calabrese, F. Cappuzzello +43
Charge exchange (CE) reactions offer a major opportunity to excite nuclear isovector modes, providing clues about the nuclear interaction in the medium. Moreover, double charge exc…
Nuclear Matrix Elements for Heavy Ion Sequential Double Charge Exchange Reactions
Horst Lenske, Jessica Bellone, Maria Colonna +1
The theoretical approach to a sequential heavy ion double charge exchange reaction is presented. A brief introduction into the formal theory of second-order nuclear reactions and t…
NURE: An ERC project to study nuclear reactions for neutrinoless double beta decay
M. Cavallaro, E. Aciksoz, L. Acosta +71
Neutrinoless double beta decay (0ν\b{eta}\b{eta}) is considered the best potential resource to determine the absolute neutrino mass scale. Moreover, if observed, it will signal tha…
Measuring nuclear reaction cross sections to extract information on neutrinoless double beta decay
M. Cavallaro, F. Cappuzzello, C. Agodi +72
Neutrinoless double beta decay (0v\b{eta}\b{eta}) is considered the best potential resource to access the absolute neutrino mass scale. Moreover, if observed, it will signal that n…
Heavy ion charge exchange reactions and the link with beta decay processes
M. Colonna, J. I. Bellone, S. Burrello +2
Within the DWBA framework, we develop a theoretical description of single and double heavy ion charge exchange (CE) reactions. We show that absorption effects are particularly impo…
The NUMEN project: NUclear Matrix Elements for Neutrinoless double beta decay
F. Cappuzzello, C. Agodi, M. Cavallaro +68
The article describes the main achievements of the NUMEN project together with an updated and detailed overview of the related R&D activities and theoretical developments. NUMEN pr…
Theory of Single Charge Exchange Heavy Ion Reactions
Horst Lenske, Jessica I. Bellone, Maria Colonna +1
The theory of heavy ion single charge exchange reactions is reformulated. In momentum space the reaction amplitude factorizes into a product of projectile and target transition for…
Toward an understanding of the and puzzle for heavy quarks
Francesco Scardina, Santosh K Das, Salvatore Plumari +2
One of the primary aims of the ongoing nuclear collisions at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies is to create a Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP)…
