No-Core Gamow Shell Model (NCGSM) is applied for the first time to study selected well-bound and unbound states of helium isotopes. This model is formulated on the complex energy plane and, by using a complete Berggren ensemble, treats…
The functional renormalization group (FRG) has been used widely to investigate phase diagrams, in particular the one of the two-dimensional Hubbard model. So far, the study of one-dimensional models has not attracted as much attention. We…
Various aspects of the application of Effective Field Theory (EFT) to the Nucleon-Nucleon (NN) interaction are considered. We look for contributions beyond One Pion Exchange which are predicted by Chiral Symmetry. Using the formalism of the…

Prototype for the study of weakly bound projectiles colliding on stable targets, the scattering of deuterium ($d$) on $^4$He ($\alpha$) is an important milestone in the search for a fundamental understanding of low-energy reactions. At the…
The problem of the near vanishing of the Gamow-Teller transition ($GT$) in the A=14 system between the lowest $J=0^+~ T=1$ and $J=1^+~ T=0$ states is revisited. The model space is extended from the valence space $(p^{-2})$ to the valence…

We report Quantum Monte Carlo calculations of weak transitions in $A\leq 10$ nuclei, based on the Norfolk two- and three-nucleon chiral interactions, and associated one- and two-body axial currents. We find that the contribution from…
Four nuclei which are proved to be $2\nu\beta\beta$ emitters ($^{76}$Ge, $^{82}$Se, $^{150}$Nd, $^{238}$U), and four suspected, due to the corresponding Q-values, to have this property ($^{148}$Nd, $^{154}$Sm, $^{160}$Gd, $^{232}$Th), were…
