We discuss a quantum-statistical feature of non-relativistic identical fermions whose interaction is predominantly attractive at low energies. Specifically, we consider exotic, multi-neutron nuclei. From the enhancement of an arbitrarily…

We conclude that nucleon is a many body complex system whose low-energy behaviour is determined mainly by strong interaction. Non-perturbative approach to QCD, such as QCD sum rule and the QCD based effective theory, and the models such as…

In this paper we consider a variational problem related to a model for a nucleon interacting with the $\omega$ and $\sigma$ mesons in the atomic nucleus. The model is relativistic, and we study it in a nuclear physics nonrelativistic limit,…

In this paper we report our systematic calculations of angular momentum $I$ ground state probabilities ($P(I)$) of boson systems with spin $l$ in the presence of random two-body interactions. It is found that the P(0) dominance is usually…
