Diffractive vector meson photo-production in oxygen-oxygen and neon-neon ultraperipheral collisions at energies available at the CERN Large Hadron Collider
J. Cepila, J. G. Contreras, M. Matas +1
The energy-dependent hotspot model is used to predict cross sections for vector-meson diffractive photo-nuclear production off oxygen (O) and neon (Ne) that can be extracted…
Probing nuclear structure with the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation in full impact-parameter dependence
J. Cepila, M. Matas, M. Vaculciak
Building on the newly available solution of the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation with the full impact-parameter dependence, we extend the study of parton evolution from proton to n…
Electronic structure of liquid xenon in the context of light dark matter direct detection
Riccardo Catena, Luca Marin, Marek Matas +2
We present a description of the electronic structure of xenon within the density-functional theory formalism with the goal of accurately modeling dark-matter-induced ionisation in…
Impact-parameter-dependent solutions to the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation at next-to-leading order
J. Cepila, J. G. Contreras, M. Matas +1
A stable numerical solution of the impact-parameter-dependent next-to-leading order Balitsky-Kovchegov equation is presented for the first time. The rapidity evolution of the dipol…
Incoherent production at large identifies the onset of saturation at the LHC
Jan Cepila, Jesus Guillermo Contreras, Marek Matas +1
We predict that the onset of gluon saturation can be uniquely identified using incoherent production in Pb$\unicode{x2013}$Pb collisions at currently accessible energie…

Riccardo Catena, Timon Emken, Marek Matas +2
We develop a formalism to describe electron ejections from graphene-like targets by dark matter (DM) scattering for general forms of scalar and spin 1/2 DM-electron interactions an…
Chiral phonons as dark matter detectors
Carl P. Romao, Riccardo Catena, Nicola A. Spaldin +1
We propose a method for detecting single chiral phonons that will enable their use as dark-matter detectors. We suggest metal--organic frameworks (MOFs) as detector materials, as t…
Dark matter - electron interactions in materials beyond the dark photon model
Riccardo Catena, Daniel Cole, Timon Emken +4
The search for sub-GeV dark matter (DM) particles via electronic transitions in underground detectors attracted much theoretical and experimental interest in the past few years. A…
Crystal responses to general dark matter-electron interactions
Riccardo Catena, Timon Emken, Marek Matas +2
We develop a formalism to describe the scattering of dark matter (DM) particles by electrons bound in crystals for a general form of the underlying DM-electron interaction. Such a…
Magnetic field inside of a nucleon and the quark-Zeeman effect
Marek Matas
Zeeman effect has been an invaluable tool for the detection and measurement of the effects of a magnetic field on the internal behavior of atoms and nuclei. Along with Mössbauer ef…

The impact of nonlinear effects in the diffractive observables that will be measured in future electron-ion collisions is investigated. We present, for the first time, the predicti…

We study the disappearance of the away-side peak of the di-hadron correlation function in p+A vs p+p collisions at forward rapidities, when the scaterring process presents a manife…
