It is still one of the most challenging questions in fundamental physics is how hadrons are build from quarks. One way to address this question is to study hyperons. Hyperons are similar to nucleons but contain one or several strange quarks. By studying the decays of the unstable hyperons, we can gather valuable information about their inner structure which is quantified by electromagnetic...
The Reactions with Relativistic Radioactive Beams (R3B) collaboration at GSI provides a versatile experimental setup using high efficiency and resolution detectors covering a large range of acceptance. The combination of the versatile experimental setup and the fragment separator (FRS) allow one to explore a wide range of physics using relativistic radioactive beams in inverse-kinematics. In...
Advances in quantum many-body methods and computing allow us to study a wide range of finite nuclei and infinite nuclear matter with realistic interaction models based on chiral effective field theory. The properties of 208Pb including the noteworthy neutron skin thickness are studied for the first time using state-of-the-art realistic nuclear forces. We introduce the robust statistical...
