The Electric Dipole Moment (EDM) of subatomic particles serves as a source of CP violation, which could explain the observed matter-antimatter imbalance. Detecting an EDM larger than the tiny theoretical predictions from the Standard Model would indicate additional CP violation and point to new physics beyond the Standard Model.
Axions, initially proposed to resolve the strong CP problem,...
The NICA accelerator complex opens up unique prospects for research in two areas of modern high-energy physics. Originally designed as a collider for studying the physics of quark-gluon plasma, with the introduction of some spin technologies its physics program could be enriched by studies of polarized phenomena in hadron collisions at high and intermediate energies, as well as by modernizing...
Neutron-induced reaction cross sections of unstable nuclei are essential for understanding the synthesis of heavy elements in stars and for applications in nuclear technology. However, their direct measurement is very complicated due to the radioactivity of the targets involved. In the frame of the NECTAR (Nuclear rEaCTions At storage Rings) project, we propose to circumvent this problem by...
