The Alt-Grassberger-Sandhas N-body theory is used to study interaction of eta-mesons with d, 3He, and 4He. Separable expansion of the subamplitudes is adopted to convert the integral equations into the quasi-two-body form. The resulting…

The usefulness of the three-body mechanism of $\eta$-meson production is tested by extending to high energies a recently developed two step model of the $p d \to ^3$He $\eta$ reaction by us, which was successful in reproducing the energy…
We demonstrate that the binding energies and widths of eta-mesic nuclei depend strongly on subthreshold eta-N interaction. This strong dependence is made evident from comparing three different eta-nucleus optical potentials: (1) a…

Motivated by the two recent observations in the WASA-at-COSY detector, we investigate the $\eta^3$He nucleus with the $\eta NNN$ few body method. We construct the effective $s$-wave energy dependent $\eta N$ potential which reproduce the…
