Subatomic systems are pivotal for understanding fundamental baryonic interactions, as they provide direct access to quark-level degrees of freedom. In particular, introducing a strange quark adds "strangeness" as a new dimension, offering a…
The effective actions of a scalar and massless spin-half field are determined as functions of the deformation of a symmetrically squashed three-sphere. The extreme oblate case is particularly examined as pertinant to a high temperature…

The traditional nuclear shell model approach is extended to include many-body forces. The empirical Hamiltonian with a three-body force is constructed for the identical nucleons on the 0f7/2 shell. Manifestations of the three-body force in…
Few-body systems, such as cold atoms and halo nuclei, share universal features at low energies, which are insensitive to the underlying inter-particle interactions at short ranges. These low-energy properties can be investigated in the…
A systematic connection between QCD and nuclear few- and many-body properties in the form of the Effective Field Theory "without pions" is applied to $A\le 6$ nuclei to determine its range of applicability. We present results at…

We use Faddeev's decomposition to solve the shell-model problem for three nucleons. The dependence on harmonic-oscillator excitations allowed in the model space, up to $32 \hbar\Omega$ in the present calculations, and on the…
Density functionals for nuclei usually include an effective 3-body interaction that depends on a fractional power of the density. Using insights from the many-body theory of the low-density two-component Fermi gas, we consider a new,…
