Clustering in nuclei at finite temperature
Esra Yüksel🇹🇷 · Florian Mercier🇫🇷 · Jean-Paul Ebran🇫🇷 · Elias Khan🇫🇷
We investigate the localization and clustering features in $^{20}$ Ne ( $N = Z$ ) and neutron-rich $^{32}$ Ne nuclei at zero and finite temperatures. The finite temperature Hartree-Bogoliubov theory is used with the relativistic density-dependent meson-nucleon coupling functional DD-ME2. It is shown that clustering features gradually weaken with increasing temperature and disappear when the shape phase transition occurs. Considering thermal fluctuations in the density profiles, the clustering features vanish at lower temperatures, compared to the case without thermal fluctuations. The effect of the pairing correlations on the nucleon localization and the formation of cluster structures are also studied at finite temperatures. Due to the inclusion of pairing in the calculations, cluster structures are preserved until the critical temperatures for the shape phase transition are reached. Above the critical temperature of the shape phase transition, the clustering features suddenly disappear, which differs from the results without pairing.

Coulomb Form Factors of $^{27}$ Al and $^{31}$ P Nuclei Using Coulomb valance Tassie model and Bohr-Mottelson Collective Models with Different Potentials
Khalid S. Jassim · Ranya Mahmoud Mohammed
The longitudinal Coulomb C0, C2 and C4 form factors with core-polarization effects have been studied using shell model calculations for 3/2 $_{1}^{+}$ state with excitation energy of 1.069 MeV, 5/2 $_{2}^{+}$ state with excitation energy of 2.706 MeV and 7/2 $_{1}^{+}$ state with excitation energy of 2.304 MeV state in $^{27}$ Al nucleus and 1/2 state in $^{31}$ P nucleus. The two-body effective interaction Wildenthal and universal sd-shell interaction A (USDA) are used for sd-shell orbits. The Coulomb valance Tassie model (CVTM) and Bohr-Mottelson (BM) collective model have been used to calculated the Core-polarization effects. Three potentials are Harmonic Oscillator (HO) potential, Wood-Saxon (WS) and SKX potential,which have been used to calculated the wave functions of radial single particle matrix elements. The results for these potentials are compared with final update experimental data. The calculations with inclusions of core-polarization effects give a good agreements of experimental data.

Resonance-to-bound transition of $^{5}$ He in neutron matter and its analogy with heteronuclear Feshbach molecule
Hiroyuki Tajima🇯🇵 · Hajime Moriya🇯🇵 · Wataru Horiuchi🇯🇵 · Kei Iida🇯🇵 · Eiji Nakano🇯🇵
We theoretically investigate the fate of a neutron-alpha $p$ -wave resonance in dilute neutron matter, which may be encountered in neutron stars and supernova explosions. While $^{5}$ He is known as a resonant state that decays to a neutron and an alpha particle in vacuum, this unstable state turns into a stable bound state in the neutron Fermi sea because the decay process is forbidden by the Pauli-blocking effect of neutrons. Such a resonance-to-bound transition assisted by the Pauli-blocking effect can be realized in cold atomic experiments for a quantum mixture near the heteronuclear Feshbach resonance.

Non-equilibrium components in very low transverse momentum region in high-energy nuclear collisions
Yuuka Kanakubo🇯🇵 · Yasuki Tachibana🇯🇵 · Tetsufumi Hirano🇯🇵
We analyze Pb+Pb collisions at $s_{NN} = 2.76$ TeV with a novel framework based on the dynamical core--corona picture that describes particle productions from both equilibrium and non-equilibrium components. We remark the possibility of the contribution from non-equilibrium components at very low transverse momentum ( $p_{T}$ ) region and show that such contributions significantly affect $p_{T}$ -integrated four-particle cumulants. These results strongly suggest the necessity of non-equilibrium components when one extracts properties of the quark-gluon plasma from experimental data using sophisticated dynamical models based on relativistic hydrodynamics.

Kinetic theory for massive spin-1 particles
David Wagner🇩🇪 · Nora Weickgenannt🇩🇪 · Enrico Speranza🇺🇸
We calculate the Wigner function for charged spin-1 particles in inhomogeneous classical electromagnetic fields, going to first order in a power series in $ℏ$ . The Boltzmann equation for the scalar distribution function obtained from this formalism agrees with previous calculations for spin-1/2 particles. In particular, we recover a Mathisson force of twice the magnitude, correctly reflecting the higher dipole moment of vector mesons. Evolution equations for vector and tensor degrees of freedom are obtained, and global equilibrium is discussed.

New developments in relativistic hydrodynamics
Nora Weickgenannt🇩🇪
We review recent progress in relativistic hydrodynamics, discussing causal and stable first-order hydrodynamics, known as BDNK theories, hydrodynamic attractors, as well as hydrodynamics near the chiral critical point and spin hydrodynamics.

Inner crust equations of state for CompOSE
Tuhin Malik · Helena Pais
In this paper, we present some relativistic mean-field inner crust equations of state that have recently been uploaded in the CompOSE online repository. These equations of state fulfill experimental and microscopic constraints, and are also able to reproduce two solar-mass stars. We integrate the TOV equations to obtain the mass-radius relation, and we also calculate the tidal deformability, compactness, and effective tidal deformability to compare with the latest astrophysical data from NICER and LIGO and Virgo.

Final-state interactions and spin structure in $E 1$ breakup of $^{1} 1$ Li in Halo EFT
Matthias Göbel🇩🇪 · Bijaya Acharya🇺🇸 · Hans-Werner Hammer🇩🇪 · Daniel R. Phillips🇺🇸
We calculate the $E 1$ breakup of the $2 n$ halo nucleus $^{11}$ Li in Halo Effective Field Theory (Halo EFT) at leading order. In Halo EFT, $^{11}$ Li is treated as a three-body system of a $^{9}$ Li core and two neutrons. We present a detailed investigation of final-state interactions (FSI) in the neutron-neutron $(nn)$ and neutron-core $(n c)$ channels. We employ Moller operators to formulate an expansion scheme that satisfies the non-energy-weighted cluster sum rule and successively includes higher-order terms in the multiple-scattering series for the FSI. Computing the $E 1$ strength up to third order in this scheme, we observe apparent convergence and good agreement with experiment. The neutron-neutron FSI is by far the most important contribution and largely determines the maximum value of the $E 1$ distribution. However, inclusion of $n c$ FSI does shift the peak position to slightly lower energies. Moreover, we investigate the sensitivity of the $E 1$ response to the spin structure of the neutron- $^{9}$ Li interaction. We contrast results for an interaction that is the same in the spin-1 and spin-2 channels with one that is only operative in the spin-2 channel, and find that good agreement with experimental data is only obtained if the interaction is present in both spin channels. The latter case is shown to be equivalent to a calculation in which the spin of $^{9}$ Li is neglected.
