Probing the $^{12}$C+$^{12}$C fusion reaction via zero-degree spectator measurement in the $^{12}$C($^{14}$N,$αd$)$^{20}$Ne quasi-free reaction

The 12C+12C fusion reaction is a key physical process in stellar evolution and supernova explosions. It not only determines the late evolutionary fate of massive stars but also directly influences the critical conditions for triggering Type Ia supernovae in accreting white dwarfs. In this work, the THM was employed to investigate the 12C(12C,a0)20Ne reaction channel of the 12C+12C fusion process, using 14N as the Trojan horse nucleus. Telescope detectors were placed at 0 and 15 deg. to design two experimental configurations covering the forward-angle regions where spectator particles are most likely to emerge. By applying the DWBA, two sets of astrophysical S*(E) factors for the two-body reaction 12C(12C,a0)20Ne were extracted from the three-body reaction 12C(14N,da0)20Ne and normalized to existing experimental data. The results show that, limited by the overall experimental resolution, the present study cannot resolve fine resonance structures. Within the astrophysical energy region of 0.5-2 MeV, the extracted S*(E) factor exhibits an increasing trend toward lower energies. The S*(E) factor obtained with the 0-deg configuration shows a flatter trend than that obtained with the 15-deg configuration. Supported by the quasi-free reaction simulation results, the divergence between the two data sets may reflect a combination of experimental acceptance effects, finite detector resolution, and possible differences in the relative contributions of reaction mechanisms. This study provides a systematic examination of the experimental design, quasi-free event selection strategy, and interpretation of the underlying physical mechanisms, serving as a useful reference for understanding the role of the 12C+12C fusion reaction in astrophysical processes.

Multi-Model Analysis of the Astrophysical $S(E)$ Factor for the $^{9}\mathrm{Be}(p,α)^{6}\mathrm{Li}$ Reaction and Its Impact on Astrophysical Reaction Rates

The $^{9}\mathrm{Be}(p,α)^{6}\mathrm{Li}$ reaction is a destruction process for $^{9}\text{Be}$ in stars and the Big Bang. The Trojan Horse Method (THM) is a well-established indirect technique that enables the determination of reaction cross sections within the Gamow energy region while avoiding the uncertainties associated with low-energy extrapolations of the $S(E)$ factor and electron-screening effects. In this work, the bare-nucleus THM data reported by Wen \textit{et al.} are systematically analyzed using polynomial fitting, a double Breit--Wigner model, and the $R$-matrix formalism. The applicability and physical implications of these theoretical approaches in describing the low-energy $S(E)$ factor of the $^{9}\mathrm{Be}(p,α)^{6}\mathrm{Li}$ reaction are investigated and compared. Since the THM data have been incorporated into the NACRE II reaction-rate compilation, leading to improved accuracy in reaction-rate evaluations, the refined theoretical analysis presented here provides further insight into the underlying reaction dynamics and establishes a more reliable foundation for stellar reaction-rate calculations. The results obtained in this work offer valuable reference for future high-precision experimental investigations and the development of theoretical models in nuclear astrophysics.

Study of exotic hadron states in the $DD^{*}$ system via the complex momentum representation and Green's function method

In this paper, we propose a novel approach to investigate exotic hadronic states. For the $DD^{*}$ system, we employ the projection operator method to derive the momentum-space interaction potential. Subsequently, the complex momentum representation (CMR) method is adopted to realize a unified description of bound states, resonant states, and the continuum. By combining the Green's function and the CMR, the scattering phase shifts and cross sections are determined. This integrated approach provides a comprehensive framework for analyzing the scattering dynamics of the $DD^{*}$ system. In the hadronic molecular state framework, the $X(3872)$, $T_{cc}^+$, and $Z_c(3900)$ states can be consistently explained as bound states, while the $G(3900)$ can be interpreted as a $P$-wave resonant state. The decomposition of the scattering phase shifts and cross sections facilitates understanding the roles of resonant and continuum spectrum.

The bound and resonant states of $D^{(*)}D^{(*)}$ and $D^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$ with the complex scaling method

We perform a systematic study of the possible molecular states composed of a pair of heavy mesons such as $D^{(*)}D^{(*)}$, $D^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$ in the framework of the one-boson-exchange model. The exchanged bosons include the pseudoscalar, scalar and vector mesons($π$, $σ$, $ρ$, $ω$). We use the Bonn approximation to get the interaction potential of one-boson-exchange model, then apply the complex scaling method to calculate the bound and resonant states. The results indicate that the $D^{(*)}D^{(*)}$ and $D^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$ system can not only form several bound states, but also a P-wave resonant state. The hadron molecular state model can explain the structure of $T_{cc}^+$ as a bound state $DD^{*}$ with quantum number $I(J^P) = 0(1^+)$. In addition, we also discovered other bound and resonant states, which have the potential to be observed experimentally.

Probing double hadron resonance by complex momentum representation method

Resonances are ubiquitous phenomena in nature, and physicists have developed many methods to explore resonant states. Of particular note is the complex momentum representation(CMR) method, which has been developed and widely used in the study of resonant states in atomic, molecular and nuclear physics. Here, for the first time, we have developed this novel method to study hadron resonant states. The CMR method is applied to probe the bound and resonant states for the $Λ_cD(\bar{D})$ and $Λ_cΛ_c(\barΛ_c)$ systems, in which the resonant states are exposed clearly in complex momentum plane and the resonance parameters can be determined precisely without imposing unphysical parameters. The results show that the CMR method has achieving higher accuracy than other widely used methods. This method is not only very effective for narrow resonances, but also can be reliably applied to broad resonances.

Predication of novel effects in rotational nuclei at high speed

The study of high-speed rotating matter is a crucial research topic in physics due to the emergence of novel phenomena. In this paper, we combined cranking covariant density functional theory (CDFT) with a similar renormalization group approach to decompose the Hamiltonian from the cranking CDFT into different Hermit components, including the non-relativistic term, the dynamical term, the spin-orbit coupling, and the Darwin term. Especially, we obtained the rotational term, the term relating to Zeeman effect-like, and the spin-rotation coupling due to consideration of rotation and spatial component of vector potential. By exploring these operators, we aim to identify novel phenomena that may occur in rotating nuclei. Signature splitting, Zeeman effect-like, spin-rotation coupling, and spin current are among the potential novelties that may arise in rotating nuclei. Additionally, we investigated the observability of these phenomena and their dependence on various factors such as nuclear deformation, rotational angular velocity, and strength of magnetic field.

Explanation of Y(4630) as hadronic resonant state

After Y(4630) is discovered, theorists have given various explanations. We find that if Y(4630) is interpreted as the D-wave resonant state of $Λ_c \bar Λ_c$ system, the particle mass, decay width and all quantum numbers are consistent with experimental observations. We use the Bonn approximation to get the interaction potential of one boson exchange model, then extend the complex scaling method (CSM) to calculate the bound and resonant states. The results indicate that the $Λ_c \barΛ_c$ system can form not only the bound state of S wave, but also the resonant state of the high angular momentum, and the $^3D_1$ wave resonant state can explain the structure of Y(4630) very well.

$J/ψ$ associated production with a bottom quark pair from the Higgs boson decay in next-to-leading order QCD

In this work, we investigate the next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD correction to $J/ψ$ associated production with a bottom quark pair from the Higgs boson decay within the nonrelativistic QCD framework. From numerical results, {we find that the decay width of process $H \rightarrow b+ J/ψ+\bar{b}$ at leading order (LO) mainly comes from the contribution of the Fock state $^3S^{(8)}_1$, and the NLO QCD corrections significantly enhance the decay width at LO accuracy by about 2 times. At NLO accuracy, the Fock states $^3S^{(8)}_1$ and $^3P^{(8)}_J$ channels give the main contribution, accounting for about $68\%$ and $29\%$ of the total decay width of $J/ψ$ associated production with a bottom quark pair at NLO accuracy from the Higgs boson decay, respectively. Considering the dominant contribution of color octet (CO) channels at NLO accuracy, the inclusive decay process $H\to b+J/ψ+\bar b + X$ has the potential to be found in future colliders with high energy/luminosity.} The study of $J/ψ$ associated production with a bottom quark pair from the Higgs boson decay is not only useful to study the mechanism of color-octet, but also to assist in the investigation of the coupling for the Higgs boson with the bottom quark.

Revisit prompt $J/ψ$ production in associated with Higgs Boson via gluon fusion at the LHC

The production of charmonium associated with Higgs boson via gluon fusion has been investigated in Ref.[Phys.Rev.D66,114002(2002)], in which they considered the contribution of final Higgs boson radiation off the charm quark at tree level and found that this process is to be far too rare to be observable in any of the considered experiments. In this paper, the production of prompt $J/ψ$ associated with Higgs boson via gluon fusion at the 14 TeV LHC within the factorization formalism of NRQCD is revisited. After considering the contribution from the final Higgs boson radiation off the top quark in the loop, which is {more than} three orders of magnitudes over the charm quark at tree level, the production of prompt $J/ψ$ associated with Higgs boson has great potential to be detected. The prompt $J/ψ$ production includes the direct production and indirect production via radiative or hadronic decays of high excited charmonium states. For the direct $J/ψ+ H$ production via gluon fusion loop-induced, the ${}^{3}S^{(8)}_1$ Fock state gives dominant contribution to the cross section, which is about 95\% to the total direct production. The indirect contribution via loop-induced is appreciable, since the summation of which from $ψ(2S) + H$, $χ_{c1} + H$ and $χ_{c2} + H$ is about $34\%$ to the total cross section of prompt $J/ψ+ H$. While the indirect contribution from $χ_{c0} + H$ is tiny, which can be neglected. With the great potential to be detected, prompt $J/ψ$ production in associated with Higgs boson can help us to further understand the mechanism of colour-octet, as well as can be useful to further investigate the coupling of the Higgs boson and fermion.

Probing double hadron resonances by the complex scaling method

Many newly discovered excited states are interpreted as bound states of hadrons. Can these hadrons also form resonant states? In this paper, we extend the complex scaling method (CSM) to calculate the bound state and resonant state consistently for the $Λ_c D(\bar D)$ and $Λ_c Λ_c (\bar Λ_c)$ systems. For these systems, the $π, η, ρ$ meson exchange contributions are suppressed, the contributions of intermediate- and short-range forces from $σ/ω$ exchange are dominant. Our results indicate that $Λ_c D$ system can not form bound state and resonant state. There exist resonant states in a wide range of parameters for $Λ_c \bar D$ and $Λ_c Λ_c (\bar Λ_c)$ systems. For these systems, the larger bound state energy, the easier to form resonant states. Among all the resonant states, the energies and widths of the P wave resonant states are smaller and more stable, which is possible to be observed in the experiments. The energies of D and F wave resonant states can reach dozens of MeV and the widths can reach hundreds of MeV.

Role of quadrupole deformation and continuum effects in the "island of inversion'' nuclei $^{28,29,31}$F

The properties of nuclei in the ``island of inversion'' (IOI) around Z=10 and N=20 are the focus of current nuclear physics research. Recent studies showed that $^{28}$F has a negative-parity ground state (g.s.) and thus lies within the southern shore of the IOI, and $^{29}$F presents a halo structure in its g.s., but it is unclear which effects, such as deformation, shell evolution due to tensor forces, or couplings to the continuum, lead to this situation. We investigate the role of quadrupole deformation and continuum effects on the single-particle (s.p.) structure of $^{28,29,31}$F from a relativistic mean-field (RMF) approach, and show how both phenomena can lead to a negative-parity g.s. in $^{28}$F and halo structures in $^{29,31}$F. We solve the Dirac equation in the complex-momentum (Berggren) representation for a potential with quadrupole deformation at the first order obtained from RMF calculations using the NL3 interaction, and calculate the continuum level densities using the Green's function method. We extract s.p. energies and widths from the continuum level densities to construct Nilsson diagrams, and analyse the evolution of both the widths and occupation probabilities of relevant Nilsson orbitals in $^{28}$F and find that some amount of prolate deformation must be present. In addition, we calculate the density distributions for bound Nilsson orbitals near the Fermi surface in $^{29,31}$F and reveal that for a quadrupole deformation $0.3 \leq β_2 \leq 0.45$ (prolate), halo tails appear at large distances. We also demonstrate that while in the spherical case the $pf$ shells are already inverted and close to the neutron emission threshold, a small amount of quadrupole deformation can reduce the gap between $fp$ shells and increase the role of the continuum, ultimately leading to the negative parity in the g.s. of $^{28}$F and the halo structures in $^{29,31}$F.

General formalism of collective motion for any deformed system

Based on Bohr model, we have presented a general formalism describing the collective motion for any deformed system, in which the collective Hamiltonian is expressed as vibrations in the body-fixed frame, rotation of whole system around the laboratory frame, and coupling between vibrations and rotation. Under the condition of decoupling approximation, we have derived the quantized Hamiltonian operator. Based on the operator, we have calculated the rotational spectra for some special octupole and hexadecapole deformed systems, and shown their dependencies on deformation. The result indicates that the contribution of octupole or hexadecapole deformations to the lowest band is regular, while that to higher bands is dramatic. These features reflecting octupole and hexadecapole deformations are helpful to recognize the properties of real nuclei with octupole and/or hexadecapole deformations coexisting with quadrupole deformations.

Research on the halo in $^{31}$Ne with complex momentum representation method

Halo is one of the most interesting phenomena in exotic nuclei especially for $^{31}$Ne, which is deemed to be a halo nucleus formed by a $p-$wave resonance. However, the theoretical calculations don't suggest a $p-$wave resonance using the scattering phase shift approach or complex scaling method. Here, we apply the complex momentum representation method to explore resonances in $^{31}$Ne. We have calculated the single-particle energies for bound and resonant states together with their evolutions with deformation. The results show that the $p-$wave resonances appear clearly in the complex momentum plane accompanied with the $p-f$ inversion in the single-particle levels. As it happens the $p-f$ inversion, the calculated energy, width, and occupation probabilities of major components in the level occupied by valance neutron support a $p-$wave halo for $^{31}$Ne.

Probing the resonance in the Dirac equation with quadruple-deformed potentials by complex momentum representation method

Resonance plays critical roles in the formation of many physical phenomena, and many techniques have been developed for the exploration of resonance. In a recent letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 062502 (2016)], we proposed a new method for probing single-particle resonances by solving the Dirac equation in complex momentum representation for spherical nuclei. Here, we extend this method to deformed nuclei with theoretical formalism presented. We elaborate numerical details, and calculate the bound and resonant states in $^{37}$Mg. The results are compared with those from the coordinate representation calculations with a satisfactory agreement. In particular, the present method can expose clearly the resonant states in complex momentum plane and determine precisely the resonance parameters for not only narrow resonances but also broad resonances that were difficult to obtain before.

Probing the resonance of Dirac particle by the application of complex momentum representation

Resonance plays critical roles in the formation of many physical phenomena, and several methods have been developed for the exploration of resonance. In this work, we propose a new scheme for resonance by solving the Dirac equation in complex momentum representation, in which the resonant states are exposed clearly in complex momentum plane and the resonance parameters can be determined precisely without imposing unphysical parameters. Combining with the relativistic mean-field theory, this method is applied to probe the resonances in $^{120}$Sn with the energies, widths, and wavefunctions being obtained. Comparing with other methods, this method is not only very effective for narrow resonances, but also can be reliably applied to broad resonances.

Influence of binding energies of electrons on nuclear mass predictions

Nuclear mass contains a wealth of nuclear structure information, and has been widely employed to extract the nuclear effective interactions. The known nuclear mass is usually extracted from the experimental atomic mass by subtracting the masses of electrons and adding the binding energy of electrons in the atom. However, the binding energies of electrons are sometimes neglected in extracting the known nuclear masses. The influence of binding energies of electrons on nuclear mass predictions are carefully investigated in this work. If the binding energies of electrons are directly subtracted from the theoretical mass predictions, the rms deviations of nuclear mass predictions with respect to the known data are increased by about $200$ keV for nuclei with $Z, N\geqslant 8$. Furthermore, by using the Coulomb energies between protons to absorb the binding energies of electrons, their influence on the rms deviations is significantly reduced to only about $10$ keV for nuclei with $Z, N\geqslant 8$. However, the binding energies of electrons are still important for the heavy nuclei, about $150$ keV for nuclei around $Z=100$ and up to about $500$ keV for nuclei around $Z=120$. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the binding energies of electrons to reliably predict the masses of heavy nuclei at an accuracy of hundreds of keV.

Relativistic symmetry in deformed nuclei by similarity renormalization group

The similarity renormalization group is used to transform a general Dirac Hamiltonian into diagonal form. The diagonal Dirac operator consists of the nonrelativistic term, the spin-orbit term, the dynamical term, and the relativistic modification of kinetic energy, which are very useful to explore the symmetries hidden in the Dirac Hamiltonian for any deformed system. As an example, the relativistic symmetries in an axially deformed nucleus are investigated by comparing the contributions of every term to the single particle energies and their correlations with the deformation. The result shows that the deformation considerably influences the spin-orbit interaction and dynamical effect, which play a critical role in the relativistic symmetries and its breaking.

Resonant states and pseudospin symmetry in the Dirac Morse potential

The complex scaling method is applied to study the resonances of a Dirac particle in a Morse potential. The applicability of the method is demonstrated with the results compared with the available data. It is shown that the present calculations in the nonrelativistic limit are in excellent agreement with the nonrelativistic calculations. Further, the dependence of the resonant parameters on the shape of the potential is checked, and the unusual sensitivity to the potential parameters is revealed. By comparing the energies and widths of the pseudospin doublets, well pseudospin symmetry is discovered in the present model. The relationship between the pseudospin symmetry and the shape of the potential is investigated by changing the Morse potential shaped by the dissociation energy, the equilibrium intermolecular distance, and the positive number controlling the decay length of the potential.
