We present a study of the effects of the tensor-isospin term of the effective interaction in Hartree-Fock and Random Phase Approximation calculations. We used finite-range forces of Gogny type, and we added to them a tensor-isospin term…
Surface properties of neutron-neutron (T=1) pairing in semi-infinite nuclear matter in a hard wall potential are investigated in BCS approximation using the Gogny force. Surface enhancement of the gap function, pairing tensor and…
We analyse a recently reported neutron interference experiment to measure a geometric phase and attempt to bring out the inadequacy of the ``phase modulo 2\pi" approach to the geometric phase. A modified neutron interferometer experiment to…
Coherent one-particle one-hole (1p1h) excitations have given us effective insights into general nuclear excitations. However, the two-particle two-hole (2p2h) excitation beyond 1p1h is now recognized as critical for the proper description…
In this paper, we analyze several experiments that address the effects of electron-electron interactions in 2D electron (hole) systems in the regime of low carrier density. The interaction effects result in renormalization of the effective…
In two phase materials, each phase having a non-local response in time, it has been found that for some driving fields the response somehow untangles at specific times, and allows one to directly infer useful information about the geometry…

We present a new Gogny-type finite-range effective interaction including a third Gaussian in the central term. Based on simple arguments valid for an arbitrary radial form factor, the three ranges are fixed from physical grounds, relating…
Strongly interacting systems appear in several areas of physics and are characterized by attractive interactions that can almost, or just barely, loosely bind two particles. Although this definition is made at the two-body level, this gives…
