The size of the helium trimer is determined by diffracting a beam of He-4 clusters from a 100 nm grating inclined by 21 degree. Due to the bar thickness the projected slit width is roughly halved to 27 nm, increasing the sensitivity to the…

We propose a novel observable for the precision measurements of a wide class of near-threshold dimer states: the short-range production rate of a dimer--spectator two-body system, composed of the given near-threshold state and one of its…
We consider the problem of a fixed impurity coupled to a small number $N$ of non-interacting bosons. We focus on impurity-boson interactions that are mediated by a closed-channel molecule, as is the case for tuneable interatomic…
We consider a few-boson system confined to one dimension with a single distinguishable particle of lesser mass. All particle interactions are modeled with $\delta$-functions, but due to the mass imbalance the problem is nonintegrable.…

We consider bound and scattering states of the one-dimensional dimer formed by two coupled non-identical atoms when one of them also interacts with the zero-range potential located at the origin. By calculating the dimer localized and…
We present an exact diagrammatic approach for the problem of dimer-dimer scattering in 3D for dimers being a resonant bound state of two fermions in a spin-singlet state, with corresponding scattering length $a_F$. Applying this approach to…
We propagate the statistical uncertainty of experimental NN scattering data into the binding energy of $^3$H and $^4$He. We also study the sensitivity of the magnetic moment and proton radius of the $^3$H to changes in the NN interaction.…
A harmonic oscillator model in four dimensions is presented for the helium atom to estimate the distance to the inner and outer electron from the nucleus, the angle between electrons and the energy levels. The method is algebraic and is not…
