Symmetries in subatomic six-quark fermions
J. D. Vergados, D. Strottman
The evidence of the existence of tetra-quark meson and penta-quark fermion systems has revived interest in the hunt of other multi-quark systems. We explore the possibility of six-…
Calculated event rates for Axion Detection via Atomic and Nuclear Processes
John D. Vergados, Paraskevi C. Divari, Hiroyasu Ejiri
The possibility of detection of 5.5 MeV and 14.4 keV solar axions by observing axion-induced nuclear and atomic transitions is investigated. The presence of nuclear transitions bet…
Searching for light WIMPS in view of neutron decay to dark matter
J. D. Vergados
In the present work we examine the implications on dark matter searches of the possibility of a partial decay of a neutron into a dark matter particle, slightly lighter than itself…
Searching for light WIMPS via their interaction with electrons
J. D. Vergados
In the present work we examine the possibility of detecting light dark matter particles (WIMP) utilizing their possible interactions with the electrons. Employing reasonable theore…
Symmetries in subatomic multi-quark systems
J. D. Vergados, D. Strottman
We discus the role of QCD (Quantum Chromodynamics) to low energy phenomena involving the color-spin symmetry of the quark model. We then combine it with orbital and isospin symmetr…
Quark Cluster Model Equations for Decay
D. Strottman, J. D. Vergados
In a separate paper we have discussed the possibility that six quark clusters can affect the rate of double-beta decay. In this article we develop the formalism needed in the evalu…
