The nuclear interactions of atomic and low energy antiprotons are studied. Measurements of level shifts and widths in the lightest elements are analyzed and compared with new results obtained in heavy nuclei. Simple geometric properties of antiproton - nucleus interactions are demonstrated. Upon this background one finds some anomalies that indicate strong energy dependence in the subthreshold antiproton - nucleon interactions. The use of of antiproton in studies of the nuclear surface is briefly discussed.

Recently, a new approach for solving the three-body problem for (d,p) reactions in the Coulomb-distorted basis in momentum space was proposed. Important input quantities for such calculations are the scattering matrix elements for proton- and neutron -nucleus scattering. We present a generalization of the Ernst-Shakin-Thaler scheme in which a momentum space separable representation of proton-nucleus scattering matrix elements can be calculated in the Coulomb basis. The viability of this method is demonstrated by comparing S-matrix elements obtained for p$+^{48}$Ca and p$+^{208}$Pb for a phenomenological optical potential with corresponding coordinate space calculations.
One important ingredient for many applications of nuclear physics to astrophysics, nuclear energy, and stockpile stewardship are cross sections for reactions of neutrons with rare isotopes. Since direct measurements are often not feasible, indirect m ethods, e.g. (d,p) reactions, should be used. Those (d,p) reactions may be viewed as three-body reactions and described with Faddeev techniques. Faddeev equations in momentum space have a long tradition of utilizing separable interactions in order to arrive at sets of coupled integral equations in one variable. Optical potentials representing the effective interactions in the neutron (proton) nucleus subsystem are usually non-Hermitian as well as energy-dependent. Including excitations of the nucleus in the calculation requires a multichannel optical potential. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a separable, energy-dependent multichannel representation of complex, energy-dependent optical potentials that contain excitations of the nucleus and that fulfill reciprocity exactly. Momentum space Lippmann-Schwinger integral equations are solved with standard techniques to obtain the form factors for the separable representation. Starting from energy-dependent multichannel optical potentials for neutron and proton scattering from $^{12}$C, separable representations based on a generalization of the Ernst-Shakin-Thaler (EST) scheme are constructed which fulfill reciprocity exactly. Applications to n$+^{12}$C and p$+^{12}$C scattering are investigated for energies from 0 to 50~MeV.
The results of the microscopic transport calculations of $bar p$-nucleus interactions within a GiBUU model are presented. The dominating mechanism of hyperon production is the strangeness exchange processes $bar K N to Y pi$ and $bar K N to Xi K$. Th e calculated rapidity spectra of $Xi$ hyperons are significantly shifted to forward rapidities with respect to the spectra of $S=-1$ hyperons. We argue that this shift should be a sensitive test for the possible exotic mechanisms of $bar p$-nucleus annihilation. The production of the double $Lambda$-hypernuclei by $Xi^-$ interaction with a secondary target is calculated.
We investigate the role of high momentum components of optical model potentials for nucleon-nucleus scattering and its incidence on their nonlocal structure in coordinate space. The study covers closed-shell nuclei with mass number in the range $4leq Aleq 208$, for nucleon energies from tens of MeV up to 1 GeV. To this purpose microscopic optical potentials are calculated using density-dependent off-shell $g$ matrices in Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approximation and based on Argonne $v_{18}$ as well as chiral 2$N$ force up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. We confirm that the gradual suppression of high-momentum contributions of the optical potential results in quite different coordinate-space counterparts, all of them accounting for the same scattering observables. We infer a minimum cutoff momentum $Q$, function of the target mass number and energy of the process, that filters out irrelevant ultraviolet components of the potential. We find that when ultraviolet suppression is applied to Perey-Buck nonlocal potential or local Woods-Saxon potentials, they also result nonlocal with similar appearance to those obtained from microscopic models in momentum space. We examine the transversal nonlocality, quantity that makes comparable the intrinsic nonlocality of any potential regardless of its representation. We conclude that meaningful comparisons of nonlocal features of alternative potentials require the suppression of their ultraviolet components.
Optical model potentials for elastic nucleon nucleus scattering are calculated for a number of target nuclides from a full-folding integral of two different realistic target density matrices together with full off-shell nucleon-nucleon t-matrices der ived from two different Bonn meson exchange models. Elastic proton and neutron scattering observables calculated from these full-folding optical potentials are compared to those obtained from `optimum factorized approximations in the energy regime between 65 and 400 MeV projectile energy. The optimum factorized form is found to provide a good approximation to elastic scattering observables obtained from the full-folding optical potentials, although the potentials differ somewhat in the structure of their nonlocality.
