Recently, the bound and continuum spectrum of 11Be has been calculated within the ab-initio no-core shell model with continuum (NCSMC) method successfully reproducing the parity inversion in the ground state. The continuum spectrum obtained…

The unbound nucleus $^{12}$Li is evaluated by studying three-neutron one-proton excitations within the multistep shell model in the complex energy plane. It is found that the ground state of this system consists of an antibound $2^-$ state.…

We present a new, mathematically rigorous, method suitable for bound state and scattering processes calculations for various three atomic or molecular systems where the underlying forces are of a hard-core nature. We employed this method to…

We investigate the use of proton-nucleus elastic scattering experiments using secondary beams of 6He and 8He to determine the physical structure of these nuclei. The sensitivity of these experiments to nuclear structure is examined by using…

In reviewing the data that has accumulated in light nuclei we find that the binding energy plays a critical role in describing the variation in energy of $s$ states relative to other states. The behavior of states with zero angular momentum…

The low-spin structure of 93Nb has been studied using the (n,n' gamma) reaction at neutron energies ranging from 1.5 to 3.0 MeV and the 94Zr(p,2n gamma)93Nb reaction at bombarding energies from 11.5 to 19 MeV. States at 1779.7 and 1840.6…

We explore the possible existence of light $\phi$-mesic nuclei using HAL QCD $\phi N$ interactions for the $^2S_{1/2}$ and $^4S_{3/2}$ channels. Particularly, using the Faddeev formalism in configuration space, the $\phi NN$ system, and…

There are indications that the beam energy region $\sqrt{s_{NN}} \approx 10$ GeV for heavy-ion collisions is an interesting one. The final state has the highest net baryon density at this beam energy. A transition from a baryon dominated to…

Recent developments in the physics of low density trapped gases make it worthwhile to verify old, well known results that, while plausible, were based on perturbation theory and assumptions about pseudopotentials. We use and extend recently…

The recent experimental data on Coulomb breakup of the nucleus $^{31}$Ne are interpreted in terms of deformation. The measured large one-neutron removal cross-section indicates that the ground state of $^{31}$Ne is either s- or p-halo. The…

We systematically investigate the relation between the nuclear structure and reaction in the $^{10}$Be nucleus using a theoretical framework. The structure of the $^{10}$Be nucleus is constructed with a cluster model based on a microscopic…

15Be is expected to have low-lying 3/2+ and 5/2+ states. A first search did not observe the 3/2+ [A. Spyrou et al., Phys. Rev. C 84, 044309 (2011)], however, a resonance in 15Be was populated in a second attempt and determined to be unbound…

The structure of the unbound nucleus $^{13}$Be is important to understanding the Borromean, two-neutron halo nucleus $^{14}$Be. The experimental studies conducted over the last four decades are reviewed in the context of the beryllium chain…
