Charge asymmetry in electron/positron energy loss in nuclear Bremsstrahlung

We calculate the leading Coulomb correction to the Bremsstrahlung energy loss in the electron-nucleus collisions for arbitrary energy of the incoming particle. This correction determines the charge asymmetry, i.e., the difference of electron and positron energy loss. The result is presented in terms of the classical polylogarithms Li2 and Li3. We use modern multiloop methods based on the IBP reduction and on the differential equations for master integrals. We provide both the threshold and the high-energy asymptotics of the found asymmetry and compare them with the available results.

Two-pion Bose-Einstein Correlations data analysis for the CMS Pb-Pb nucleon collisions

From the data collected in the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) Pb-Pb nucleon collisions experiment, the two-pion Bose-Einstein correlation functions for different combination of same charges and different charges are plotted. The influence of repulsion and attraction through Coulomb interaction between charged pions is reduced after applying the standard Gamow-factor Coulomb correction on Gaussian function C(Qinv). According to the Yano-koonin-Podgoretski parametrization, the five-dimensional components of the invariant momentum difference between two pions are calculated. One of the five components, the momentum difference in the transverse plane QT, can be further divided into Qside and Qout. Q0, Qlong, Qside and Qout were then separately plotted and fitted with the Gaussian function. The sizes of pion source or the effective interferometric source can be extracted from the fitting finally.

d + t → n + α fusion reaction in a model inspired by halo/cluster effective field theory

We study the low-energy [Formula: see text] fusion reaction using a model inspired by the halo/cluster effective field theory (H/CEFT) formalism. For this purpose, we initially focus on the [Formula: see text] reaction without considering the Coulomb force in the incoming deuteron–triton system. In the next step, we insert the Coulomb correction in the [Formula: see text] cross-section. The cross-section results involve unknown parameters. So, finally, we fit the H/CEFT cross-section of the [Formula: see text] reaction to the experimental data and obtain the values of these unknown parameters.
