Abstract

The energies of 3H^{3}H, 3He^{3}He, and 4He^{4}He ground states, the 32{\frac{3}{2}}^{-} and 12{\frac{1}{2}}^{-} scattering states of 5He^{5}He, the ground states of 6He^{6}He, 6Li^{6}Li, and 6Be^{6}Be and the 3+3^{+} and 0+0^{+} excited states of 6Li^{6}Li have been accurately calculated with the Green's function Monte Carlo method using realistic models of two- and three-nucleon interactions. The splitting of the A=3A=3 isospin T=12T=\frac{1}{2} and A=6A=6 isospin T=1T=1, Jπ=0+J^{\pi} = 0^{+} multiplets is also studied. The observed energies and radii are generally well reproduced, however, some definite differences between theory and experiment can be identified.
