Electron-electron correlation forms the basis of difficulties encountered in many-body physics. Accurate treatment of the correlation problem is likely to unravel some nice physical properties of matter embedded in the correlation. In an…
For many-body systems with short range interaction a series of relations were derived connecting many properties of the system to the dynamics of a closely packed few-body subsystems. Some of these relations were experimentally verified in…
Atom-dimer scattering below the three-body break-up threshold is studied for a system of three identical bosons. The atom-dimer scattering length and the energy of the most weakly-bound three-body state are shown to be strongly correlated.…
A number of properties of the Uehling potential are investigated. In particular, we determine the Fourier spatial resolution of the Uehling potential. The lowest-order correction on vacuum polarisation is re-written in terms of the electron…
Very low-energy scattering of orthopositronium by helium has been investigated for simultaneous study of elastic cross section and pick-off quenching rate using a model exchange potential. The present calculational scheme, while agrees with…
The occurrence of a new limit cycle in few-body physics, expressing a universal scaling function relating the binding energies of two consecutive tetramer states, is revealed, considering a renormalized zero-range two-body interaction…
Physical systems characterized by a shallow two-body bound or virtual state are governed at large distances by a continuous-scale invariance, which is broken to a discrete one when three or more particles come into play. This symmetry…
The description of unitary few-boson systems is conceptually simple: only one parameter -- the three-body binding energy -- is required to predict the binding energies of clusters with an arbitrary number of bosons. Whether this correlation…
Halo nuclei are characterized by a few weakly bound halo nucleons and a more tightly bound core. This separation of scales can be exploited in a few-body description of halo nuclei, since the detailed structure of the core is not resolved…

The three-body system inside the unitary window is studied for three equal bosons and three equal fermions having $1/2$ spin-isospin symmetry. We perform a gaussian characterization of the window using a gaussian potential to define…
We study universal bosonic few-body systems within the framework of effective field theory at leading order (LO). We calculate binding energies of systems of up to six particles and the atom-dimer scattering length. Convergence to the limit…
Low-energy universality in atomic few-body systems as a result of a large two-body scattering length has gained a lot of attention recently. Here, I discuss recent progress in describing the three-body recombination of cold atoms in terms…
Particles with short-range interactions and a large scattering length have universal low-energy properties that do not depend on the details of their structure or their interactions at short distances. In the 2-body sector, the universal…
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…
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.…
Universal behaviour in few-bosons systems close to the unitary limit, where two bosons become unbound, has been intensively investigated in recent years both experimentally and theoretically. In this particular region, called the unitary…
The different kinds of behaviour of three-body systems in the weak binding limit are classified with specific attention to the transition from a true three-body system to an effective two-body system. For weakly bound Borromean systems…
Saturating sets are combinatorial objects in projective spaces over finite fields that have been intensively investigated in the last three decades. They are related to the so-called covering problem of codes in the Hamming metric. In this…
We investigate transport properties of topologically disordered, three-dimensional, one-particle, tight binding models, featuring site distance dependent hopping terms. We start from entirely disordered systems into which we gradually…
