Dense Nuclear Matter Equation of State from Heavy-Ion Collisions
The nuclear equation of state (EOS) is at the center of numerous theoretical and experimental efforts in nuclear physics. With advances in microscopic theories for nuclear interactions, the availability of […]

Solar fusion III: New data and theory for hydrogen-burning stars
In stars that lie on the main sequence in the Hertzsprung Russel diagram, like our sun, hydrogen is fused to helium in a number of nuclear reaction chains and series, […]

Constraints on pseudo-Dirac neutrinos using high-energy neutrinos from NGC 1068
Neutrinos can be pseudo-Dirac in Nature – they can be Majorana fermions while behaving effectively as Dirac fermions. Such scenarios predict active-sterile neutrino oscillations driven by a tiny mass-squared difference […]

Refractive neutrino masses, ultralight dark matter and cosmology
We consider in detail a possibility that the observed neutrino oscillations are due to refraction on ultralight scalar boson dark matter. We introduce the refractive mass squared, $\tilde{m}^2$, and study […]
