Single nucleon pickup reactions were performed with a 18.1 MeV/nucleon (14)O beam on a deuterium target. Within the coupled reaction channel framework, the measured cross sections were compared to theoretical predictions and analyzed using both phenomenological and microscopic overlap functions. The missing strength due to correlations does not show significant dependence on the nucleon separation energy asymmetry over a wide range of 37 MeV, in contrast with nucleon removal data analyzed within the sudden-eikonal formalism.

Polarized Semi-Inclusive Deep-Inelastic Scattering at Next-to-Next-to-Leading Order in QCD.
Phys Rev Lett

Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca and INFN, Piazza della Scienza 3, 20216 Milano, Italy.
Semi-inclusive hadron production in longitudinally polarized deep-inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering is a powerful tool for resolving the quark flavor decomposition of the proton's spin structure. We present the full next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the coefficient functions of polarized semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (SIDIS) in analytical form, enabling the use of SIDIS measurements in precision studies of the proton spin structure. The numerical impact of these corrections is illustrated by a comparison with data of polarized single-inclusive hadron spectra from the DESY HERMES and CERN COMPASS experiments.

The accuracy of V_{ud} determinations from superallowed β decays critically hinges on control over radiative corrections. Recently, substantial progress has been made on the single-nucleon, universal corrections, while nucleus-dependent effects, typically parametrized by a quantity δ_{NS}, are much less well constrained. Here, we lay out a program to evaluate this correction from effective field theory (EFT), highlighting the dominant terms as predicted by the EFT power counting.

Article Synopsis
- A high-precision test of the spin- and velocity-dependent (SVD) interaction between spin-polarized protons and unpolarized nucleons is conducted using a Bragg atom interferometer with ^{87}Rb atoms.
- The experiment enhances the precision of free fall measurements to 9.2×10^{-9}, significantly improving on earlier polarized atom experiments.
- It also provides a new constraint on the SVD interaction coupling, indicating greater sensitivity and opening new avenues for studying physics with polarized-atom interferometers.
Unraveling proton-coupled electron transfer in cofactor-free oxidase- and oxygenase-catalyzed oxygen activation: a theoretical view.

Article Synopsis
- Oxygen is essential for the metabolism of non-anaerobic organisms, but the specifics of how triplet oxygen interacts in enzymatic oxidation remain unclear.
- Recent studies indicate that oxygen activation by oxidases and oxygenases occurs through a process called proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), which differs from the old hypothesis of single electron transfer (SET).
- This review highlights recent advancements in understanding these mechanisms and aims to aid in developing more efficient enzyme mutants for disease treatment and environmental pollution management.
Encapsulating Proton Inside C Fullerene: A Density Functional Theory Study on the Electronic Properties of Cationic X@C (X = H, HO and NH).

Confining protons into an enclosed carbon cage is expected to give rise to unique electronic properties for both the inner proton and the outer cage. In this work, we systematically investigated the geometric and electronic structures of cationic X@C (X = H, HO, and NH), and their corresponding neutral species (X = HO, NH), by quantum chemical density functional theory calculations. We show that C can trap HO, NH, HO and NH at the cage center and only slightly influence their geometries.
