This article reviews our current understanding of how the internal quark structure of a
nucleon bound in nuclei differs from that of a free nucleon. The interpretation of …

The atomic nucleus is made of protons and neutrons (nucleons), which are themselves
composed of quarks and gluons. Understanding how the quark–gluon structure of a nucleon …

Determining the Equation of State (EOS) of dense neutron-rich nuclear matter is a shared
goal of both nuclear physics and astrophysics. Except possible phase transitions, the density …

The protons and neutrons in a nucleus can form strongly correlated nucleon pairs.
Scattering experiments, in which a proton is knocked out of the nucleus with high …

The atomic nucleus is one of the densest and most complex quantum-mechanical systems
in nature. Nuclei account for nearly all the mass of the visible Universe. The properties of …

There is no unique and widely accepted definition of the complexity measure (CM) of a
many-fermion wave function in the presence of interactions. The simplest many-fermion …

We calculate the equation of state of neutron matter with realistic two-and three-nucleon
interactions using quantum Monte Carlo techniques and illustrate that the short-range three …
