A three-body potential function can account for interactions among triples of particles which are uncaptured by pairwise interaction functions such as Coulombic or Lennard-Jones potentials. Likewise, a multibody potential of order $n$ can…
We first determine the Lambda-N S-wave phase shifts so as to reproduce the experimental Lambda separation energies of A=3, 4 Lambda-hypernuclei, and then construct three phase-equivalent Lambda-N potentials with different central repulsion.…
Nucleon-nucleon (NN) forces from chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading (NLO) and next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) are applied to systems with two, three and four nucleons. At NNLO, we consider two versions of the chiral…
We construct a folding potential between the $\alpha$ and $\Lambda$ particles based on underlying nucleon-nucleon and hyperon-nucleon interactions. Starting from a phenomenological $\Lambda$-N potential and a Gaussian form of the…

Properties of six-quark dibaryons in nuclear medium are considered by example of $A=6$ nuclei within the three-cluster $\alpha+2N$ model. Dibaryon production in nuclei leads to the appearance of a three-body force between the dibaryon and…

Total photonuclear absorption cross sections of $^3$H and $^3$He are studied using realistic NN and NNN forces. Final state interactions are fully included. Two NN potential models, the AV14 and the r-space Bonn-A potentials, are…
We study the triton and three-nucleon force at lowest chiral order in pionless effective field theory both in the Hamiltonian and Euclidean nuclear lattice formalism. In the case of the Euclidean lattice formalism, we derive the exact…
The extension of ab initio quantum many-body theory to higher accuracy and larger systems is intrinsically limited by the handling of large data objects in form of wave-function expansions and/or many-body operators. In this work we present…
The nuclear shell model has been perhaps the most important conceptual and computational paradigm for the understanding of the structure of atomic nuclei. While the shell model has been predominantly used in a phenomenological context,…
The pi-Lambda-N - pi-Sigma-N coupled-channel system with quantum numbers (Y,I,JP) = (1,3/2,2+) is studied in a relativistic three-body model, using two-body separable interactions in the dominant p-wave pion-baryon and 3S1 YN channels.…
