In weakly bound exotic nuclei, number of excited bound states or narrow resonances is small and, moreover, they couple strongly to the particle continuum. Hence, these systems should be described in the quantum open system formalism which…

The nucleus is a correlated open quantum many-body system. The presence of states that are unbound to particle emission may have significant impact on spectroscopic properties of nuclei, especially those close to the particle drip lines. In…

The presence of a particle continuum, both of a resonant and non-resonant character, can significantly impact spectroscopic properties of weakly bound nuclei and excited nuclear states close to, and above, the particle emission threshold.…
A simple approximation to shell model is proposed in which the low energy excitation spectra corresponds to the identical nucleons occupying the same single particle states where they preferred to form pairs for the ground states. We call…
