Electroweak Radiative Corrections to Parity-Violating Electron-Nucleus Scattering
Brendan T. Reed, C. J. Horowitz
Parity-violating electron-scattering provides a largely model independent way of measuring neutron densities in nuclei that has important implications for the structure of nuclei a…
Comment on QED Corrections to the Parity Violating Asymmetry in High-Energy Electron-Nucleus Scattering
Brendan T. Reed, C. J. Horowitz
In a recent letter Roca-Maza and Jakubassa-Amundsen claim a large radiative correction to the parity-violating asymmetry in electron-nucleus scattering. If t…
Neutron Skins: Weak Elastic Scattering and Neutron Stars
Juliette M. Mammei, Charles J. Horowitz, Jorge Piekarewicz +2
The recently completed PREX-2 campaign - which measured the weak form factor of lead at an optimal momentum transfer - has confirmed that the neutron skin of lead is relatively lar…
Density Dependence of the Symmetry Energy in the Post PREX-CREX Era
Brendan T. Reed, F. J. Fattoyev, C. J. Horowitz +1
The recently published CREX results suggest a rather peculiar picture for the density dependence of the symmetry energy. Whereas PREX favors a large neutron skin thickness in $^{20…
Measuring the surface thickness of the weak charge density of nuclei
Brendan Reed, Z. Jaffe, C. J. Horowitz +1
The present PREX-II and CREX experiments are measuring the rms radius of the weak charge density of Pb and Ca. We discuss the feasibility of a new parity violating e…
GW190814: Impact of a 2.6 solar mass neutron star on nucleonic equations of state
F. J. Fattoyev, C. J. Horowitz, J. Piekarewicz +1
Is the secondary component of GW190814 the lightest black hole or the heaviest neutron star ever discovered in a double compact-object system [R. Abbott et al., ApJ Lett., 896, L44…
Insights into nuclear saturation density from parity violating electron scattering
C. J. Horowitz, J. Piekarewicz, Brendan Reed
The saturation density of nuclear matter is a fundamental nuclear physics property that is difficult to predict from fundamental principles. The saturation density is closely…
