Cross sections for the 7Be(p,gamma)8B reaction have been measured for E_c.m.= 0.35-1.4 MeV using radioactive 7Be targets. Two independent measurements carried out with different beam conditions, different targets and detectors are in…

We introduce a unified approach to nuclear bound and continuum states based on the coupling of the no-core shell model (NCSM), a bound-state technique, with the no-core shell model/resonating group method (NCSM/RGM), a nuclear scattering…

Solar neutrino fluxes depend both on astrophysical and on nuclear physics inputs, namely on the cross sections of the reactions responsible for neutrino production inside the Solar core. While the flux of solar 8B neutrinos has been…

The separation energies of the isospin triplet $^7_\Lambda\mathrm{He}$, $^7_\Lambda \mathrm{Li^{*}}$, $^7_\Lambda$Be, and the $T=1/2$ doublet $^8_\Lambda$Li, $^8_\Lambda$Be are investigated within the no-core shell model. Calculations are…

We present here the first application of realistic shell model (SM) including coupling between many-particle (quasi-)bound states and the continuum of one-particle scattering states to the spectroscopy of 8B and to the calculation of…

The astrophysical factor for 7Be(p,\gamma)8B at zero energy, S17(0), is determined from an analysis of 208Pb(8B, p+7Be)208Pb at 52 MeV/nucleon by means of the method of continuum-discretized coupled-channels (CDCC) taking account of all…

We analyze (p,t) two-neutron transfer reactions in a semi-microscopic model. The overlap integrals of the target nucleus are calculated in a microscopic cluster model. The Resonating Group Method (RGM) assumes a cluster structure of the…

An exclusive measurement of the Coulomb breakup of 8B into 7Be+p at 254 A MeV allowed to study the angular correlations of the breakup particles. These correlations demonstrate clearly that E1 multipolarity dominates and that E2…

A new measurement of proton resonance scattering on 7Be was performed up to the center-of-mass energy of 6.7 MeV using the low-energy RI beam facility CRIB (CNS Radioactive Ion Beam separator) at the Center for Nuclear Study of the…

Single-nucleon transfer reactions offer a valuable way to probe nuclear structure. We explore the effect of directly introducing overlap functions computed using the Gamow shell model (GSM) into reaction calculations, taking the $\left<…

We investigate the ground state structure of $^8$B within the Skyrme Hartree-Fock framework where spin-orbit part of the effective interaction is adjusted to reproduce the one-proton separation energy of this nucleus. Using same set of…

The 7Be(p,gamma)8B reaction plays a central role in the evaluation of solar neutrino fluxes. We report on a new precision measurement of the cross section of this reaction, following our previous experiment with an implanted 7Be target, a…

Among the solar fusion reactions, the rate of the $^7$Be($p,\gamma$)$^8$B reaction is one of the most difficult to determine rates. In a number of previous experiments, its astrophysical $S$-factor has been measured at $E$ = 0.1-2.5 MeV…

In this review, we discuss recent applications of the ab initio symmetry-adapted no-core shell-model (SA-NCSM) theory for study and prediction of structure and reactions of stable and unstable nuclei from light to medium mass range. We…

We report a leading-order (LO) calculation of $^7\mathrm{Be}(p,\gamma)^8\mathrm{B}$ in a low-energy effective field theory. $^8\mathrm{B}$ is treated as a shallow proton$+^7\mathrm{Be}$ core and proton$+^7\mathrm{Be}^{*}$ (core excitation)…

The rapid Gaussian falloff of the oscillator functions at large radius makes them poorly suited for the description of the asymptotic properties of the nuclear wave function, a problem which becomes particularly acute for halo nuclei. We…

We have studied the 4He(3He,gamma)7Be, 3He(3He,2p)4He, and 7Be(p,gamma)8B reactions of the solar p-p chain, using microscopic cluster models. Among other results, we showed that the 6Li+p channel has a nontrivial effect on the 7Be-producing…

We generalize the Jacobi no-core shell model (J-NCSM) to study double-strangeness hypernuclei. All particle conversions in the strangeness $S=-1,-2$ sectors are explicitly taken into account. In two-body space, such transitions may lead to…
