Quasi Free Scattering can be understood as a process in which a high energy particle knocks a nucleon out of a nucleus without any further significant interaction between the nucleon and the incident and the outgoing particles. This reaction mechanism allows to probe both valence and deeply-bound nucleon including those leading to unbound states. QFS experiments are thus considered a...

Atomic nuclei are ideal laboratories to test the fundamental symmetries of Nature in low-energy experiments. Neutrinoless double-beta decay is a lepton-violating process which will only occur if neutrinos are Majorana particles. Decay lifetimes depend on the masses of the neutrinos and on the nuclear matrix elements of the transition. Therefore, nuclear matrix elements are crucial to guide...

I will review recent theoretical and phenomenological developments on the use of jets as powerful and detailed probes of the Quark-gluon plasma produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions at the LHC and RHIC. As a conclusion I will provide an assessment of the future of this research programme.
