    We have measured for the first time the charge-changing cross sections () of C on a C target at energies below MeV. To analyze these low-energy data, we have developed a finite-range Glauber model with a global parameter set within the optical-limit approximation which is applicable to reaction cross section () and measurements at incident energies from 10 to MeV. Adopting the proton-density distribution of C known from the electron-scattering data, as well as the bare total nucleon-nucleon cross sections, and the real-to-imaginary-part ratios of the forward proton-proton elastic scattering amplitude available in the literatures, we determine the energy-dependent slope parameter of the proton-neutron elastic differential cross section so as to reproduce the existing and interaction-cross-section data for C+C over a wide range of incident energies. The Glauber model thus formulated is applied to calculate the 's of C on a Be and Al targets at various incident energies. Our calculations show excellent agreement with the experimental data. Applying our model to the and for the "neutron-skin" C nucleus, we reconfirm the importance of measurements at incident energies below MeV. The proton root-mean-square radii of C are extracted using the measured 's and the existing data. The results for C are consistent with the values from the electron scatterings, demonstrating the feasibility, usefulness of the measurement and the present Glauber model.

    Exotic hadrons: review and perspectives

    Jean-Marc Richard🇫🇷

    The physics of exotic hadrons is revisited and reviewed, with emphasis on flavour configurations which have not yet been investigated. The constituent quark model of multiquark states is discussed in some detail, as it can serve as a guide for more elaborate approaches.

    Heavy Hadrons in Nuclear Matter

    Atsushi Hosaka🇯🇵 · Tetsuo Hyodo🇯🇵 · Kazutaka Sudoh🇯🇵 · Yasuhiro Yamaguchi🇯🇵 · Shigehiro Yasui🇯🇵

    Current studies on heavy hadrons in nuclear medium are reviewed with a summary of the basic theoretical concepts of QCD, namely chiral symmetry, heavy quark spin symmetry, and the effective Lagrangian approach. The nuclear matter is an interesting place to study the properties of heavy hadrons from many different points of view. We emphasize the importance of the following topics: (i) charm/bottom hadron-nucleon interaction, (ii) structure of charm/bottom nuclei, and (iii) QCD vacuum properties and hadron modifications in nuclear medium. We pick up three different groups of heavy hadrons, quarkonia (, ), heavy-light mesons (/, /) and heavy baryons (, ). The modifications of those hadrons in nuclear matter provide us with important information to investigate the essential properties of heavy hadrons. We also give the discussions about the heavy hadrons, not only in nuclear matter with infinite volume, but also in atomic nuclei with finite baryon numbers, to serve future experiments.
