Nuclear physics of reverse electron flow at pulsar polar caps

Protons produced in electromagnetic showers formed by the reverse-electron flux are usually the largest component of the time-averaged polar-cap open magnetic-flux line current in neutron stars with positive corotational charge density. Although the electric-field boundary conditions in the corotating frame are time-independent, instabilities on both medium and short time-scales cause the curre...

the first importance. Behnke has demonstrated that the "lean body mass," since it represents the active tissue of a person, is superior to reference standards hitherto proposed for the estimation of physiological functions such as the masses of various organs and tissues and the volumes of the different fluid compartments in the body. In the present article, which has been reprinted as a short ...

Theoretical Nuclear Physics and Nuclear Astrophysics

Our research unit is part of an Interuniversity Attraction Poles (IAP) program, ​BriX (The Belgian Research Initiative on eXotic nuclei for atomic, nuclear and astrophysics studies), in which we collaborate with other nuclear-physics groups, both theoretical and experimental, in Belgium and abroad. Through this collaboration, there is a possibility for very motivated ULB students to realize ...
