Using a Multi-Channel Algebraic Scattering (MCAS) approach we have analyzed the spectra of two hyper-nuclear systems, Lambda9Be and Lambda13C. We have studied the splitting of the two odd-parity excited levels (1/2- and 3/2-) at 11 MeV…
One theoretical method for studying nuclear scattering and resonances is via the multi-channel algebraic scattering (MCAS) formalism. Studies to date with this method have used a simple collective-rotor prescription to model target states…
We present a many-channel microscopic model that extends the three-cluster model previously formulated in \cite{2009NPA...V37}. This extended model incorporates multiple three-cluster configurations, which are subsequently reduced to a…
A Multi-Channel Algebraic Scattering (MCAS) approach has been used to analyze the spectra of two hyper-nuclear systems, Lambda-9Be and Lambda-13C. The splitting of the two odd-parity excited levels (1/2^- and 3/2^-) at 11 MeV excitation in…
We investigate properties of bound and resonance states in the $_{\Lambda}^{9}$Be nucleus. To reveal the nature of these states, we use a three-cluster $2\alpha+\Lambda$ microscopic model. The model incorporates Gaussian and oscillator…
The question of how the scattering cross section changes when the spectra of the colliding nuclei have low-excitation particle-emitting resonances is explored using a multi-channel algebraic scattering (MCAS) method. As a test case, the…
Four light-mass nuclei are considered by an effective two-body clusterisation method; $^6$Li as $^2$H$+^4$He, $^7$Li as $^3$H$+^4$He, $^7$Be as $^3$He$+^4$He, and $^8$Be as $^4$He$+^4$He. The low-energy spectrum of each is determined from…
A microscopic version of the Continuum Discretized Coupled Channel (CDCC) method is used to investigate $^{6}$He scattering on $^{27}$Al, $^{58}$Ni, $^{120}$Sn, and $^{208}$Pb at energies around the Coulomb barrier. The $^{6}$He nucleus is…
The resonance states embedded in the three-cluster continuum of 6He and 6Be are obtained in the Algebraic Version of the Resonating Group Method. The model accounts for a correct treatment of the Pauli principle. It also provides the…
The generator coordinate method of a microscopic cluster model is developed to treat the resonance and scattering of nuclear clusters with complex scaling. We consistently derive the formulation of the complex scaling for the microscopic…
Compound resonances in nucleon-nucleus scattering are related to the discrete spectrum of the target. Such resonances can be studied in a unified and general framework by a scattering model that uses sturmian expansions of postulated…
In a previous letter (Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 072502 (2006)), the multi-channel algebraic scattering (MCAS) technique was used to calculate spectral properties for proton-unstable $^{15}$F and its mirror, $^{15}$C. MCAS achieved a close match…
Diverse means are used to investigate the spectra of the radioactive, exotic ions, 17,19C. First, estimates have been made using a shell model for the systems. Information from those shell model studies were then used in evaluating cross…
The proton-rich nucleus $^{23}$Al has a ground state just 123 keV below the proton drip-line, and as a result comparatively little is known experimentally about its properties, as with many such nuclei. Theoretical investigations have…
A multi-channel algebraic scattering theory, to find solutions of coupled-channel scattering problems with interactions determined by collective models, has been structured to ensure that the Pauli principle is not violated. Positive…

The low-lying continuum spectrum of the $^6{\rm He}$ nucleus is investigated for the first time within an ab initio framework that encompasses the $^4{\rm He}$+$n$+$n$ three-cluster dynamics characterizing its lowest decay channel. This is…
The spectra of mass-11 nuclei are unusual, and so pose a challenge for theoretical models of their structure. The set of isobars range from being well bound to nucleon emission (11B,11C) through weakly bound (11Li, 11Be), with the former…
