We use a perturbative momentum shell renormalization group (RG) approach to study the properties of a driven quantum system at zero temperature. To illustrate the technique, we consider a bosonic $\phi^4$ theory with an arbitrary time…
Elastic-scattering phase shifts for four-nucleon systems are studied in an $ab$-$initio$ type cluster model in order to clarify the role of the tensor force and to investigate cluster distortions in low energy $d+d$ and $t+p$ scattering. In…
Three-body continuum states are investigated with the hyperspherical method on a Lagrange mesh. The $R$-matrix theory is used to treat the asymptotic behaviour of scattering wave functions. The formalism is developed for neutral as well as…

We have used an {\it ab initio} Gamow shell model to study the isospin symmetry breaking in the $A=16$ mirror nuclei of $^{16}$F, $^{16}$N, $^{16}$Ne and $^{16}$C. Starting from a chiral interaction with two-nucleon force (2NF) at N$^3$LO…

The conventional cranking model for uniaxial and triaxial rotation (CCRM3) is frequently used to study rotational features in deformed nuclei. However, CCRM3 is semi-classical and phenomenological because it uses a constant angular…
