    The lepton angular distributions of the Drell-Yan process in the fixed-target experiments are investigated by NLO and NNLO perturbative QCD. We present the calculated angular parameters , , and the degree of violation of the Lam-Tung relation, , for the E615 experiment as well as predictions for the COMPASS experiment. Many salient features of transverse momentum and rapidity dependence could be qualitatively understood by a geometric approach.

    Angle-integrated cross-section measurements of the Ni(d,n) and (d,p) stripping reactions have been performed to determine the single-particle strengths of low-lying excited states in the mirror nuclei pair Cu-Ni situated adjacent to the doubly magic nucleus Ni. The reactions were studied in inverse kinematics utilizing a beam of radioactive Ni ions in conjunction with the GRETINA -array. Spectroscopic factors are compared with new shell-model calculations using a full model space with the GPFX1A Hamiltonian for the isospin-conserving strong interaction plus Coulomb and charge-dependent Hamiltonians. These results were used to set new constraints on the Ni(p,)Cu reaction rate for explosive burning conditions in x-ray bursts, where Ni represents a key waiting point in the astrophysical rp-process.
