The fractal property stipulates that the same physical laws apply for different scales of a given physics. This property is applied to particles and nuclei, in order to study the possibility to use it to help for determination of unknown spins of some particles or excited nuclei levels.

A systematic study of hadronic masses shows regular oscillations that can be fitted by a simple cosine function. This property can be observed when the difference between adjacent masses of each family is plotted versus the mean mass. This symmetry of oscillation is also observed for the nuclear level masses of given spin.
Fano-resonances are investigated as a new continuum excitation mode in exotic nuclei. By theoretical model calculations we show that the coupling of a single particle elastic channel to closed core-excited channels leads to sharp resonances in the low-energy continuum. A signature for such bound states embedded in the continuum (BSEC) are characteristic interference effects leading to asymmetric line shapes. Following the quasiparticle-core coupling model we consider the coupling of 1-QP (one-quasiparticle) and 3-QP components and find a number of long-living resonance structures close to the particle threshold. Results for 15C are compared with experimental data, showing that the experimentally observed spectral distribution and the interference pattern are in qualitative agreement with a BSEC interpretation.
Measuring the spins of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in active galactic nuclei (AGN) can inform us about the relative role of gas accretion vs. mergers in recent epochs of the life of the host galaxy and its AGN. Recent advances in theory and observation have enabled spin measurements for a handful of SMBHs thus far, but this science is still very much in its infancy. Herein, I discuss how and why we seek to measure black hole spin in AGN, using recent results from long X-ray observing campaigns on three radio-quiet AGN (MCG-6-30-15, NGC 3783 and Fairall 9) to illustrate this process and its caveats. I then present our current knowledge of the distribution of SMBH spins in the local universe. I also address prospects for improving the accuracy, precision and quantity of these spin constraints in the next decade and beyond with instruments such as NuSTAR, Astro-H and a future generation large-area X-ray telescope.
The issue of how epistemic uncertainties affect the outcome of Monte Carlo simulation is discussed by means of a concrete use case: the simulation of the longitudinal energy deposition profile of low energy protons. A variety of electromagnetic and hadronic physics models is investigated, and their effects are analyzed. Possible systematic effects are highlighted. The results identify requirements for experimental measurements capable of reducing epistemic uncertainties in the simulation.
A contribution is presented to the study of hadron spectroscopy through the use of fractals and discrete scale invariance implying log-periodic corrections to continuous scaling. The masses of mesons and baryons, reported by the Particle Data Group (PDG), are properly fitted with help of the equation derived from the discrete-scale invariance (DSI) model. The same property is observed for the mass ratios between different particle species. This is also the case for total widths of several hadronic species. Each fitted parameter, as a function of the hadronic masses, displays the same distribution for all hadronic species. Several masses of still unobserved mesons and baryons are tentatively predicted.
