We study the nonresonant part of the $^7$Be($p,\gamma$)$^8$B reaction using a three-cluster resonating group model that is variationally converged and virtually complete in the $^4$He+$^3$He+$p$ model space. The importance of using adequate…

The $^8$Li($n,\gamma$)$^9$Li reaction plays an important role in several astrophysics scenarios. It cannot be measured directly and indirect experiments have so far provided only cross section limits. Theoretical predictions differ by an…
The possibility of the $^8$He and $^{9}$Li clusters in atomic nuclei is discussed. Until now most of the clusters in the conventional models have been limited to the closures of the three-dimensional harmonic oscillators, such as $^4$He,…
We apply the realistic shell model which includes the coupling between many-particle (quasi-)bound states and the continuum of one-particle scattering states to the spectroscopy of mirror nuclei: $^8$B and $^8$Li, as well as to the…
The variants of intercluster interaction potentials were constructed for description of the resonance nature of some phase shifts of the n7Li elastic scattering at low energies and the P2 ground state of 8Li in the n7Li cluster channel. The…
The structure of bound and resonance states of the hypernucleus $_{\Lambda}^{7}$Li is studied within a three-cluster model. This nucleus is considered a three-cluster structure consisting of $^{4}$He, a deuteron, and a lambda hyperon. The…
The nuclear structures of $^7$Li($\alpha+n+n+p$) and $^7$Be($\alpha+p+p+n$) are studied within the microscopic cluster model, in which the clustering fragments e.g., triton, $^3$He, and even the single nucleons around the core are studied…
The low-lying level structure of the unbound neutron-rich nucleus $^{13}$Be has been investigated via breakup on a carbon target of secondary beams of $^{14,15}$B at 35 MeV/nucleon. The coincident detection of the beam velocity $^{12}$Be…
The dynamic coupling between giant resonance states and "soft", low-energy excitation, modes in weakly-bound nuclei is investigated. A coupled-channels calculation is reported for the reaction 8B + Pb --> p + 7Be + Pb at 83 MeV/nucleon. It…
The structure of the mirror nuclei $^9$Be and $^9$B is studied in a microscopic $\alpha+ \alpha+ n$ and $\alpha+ \alpha+ p$ three-cluster model using a fully antisymmetrized 9-nucleon wave function. The two-nucleon interaction includes…
The four nucleons in $^8$Li outside the $\alpha$-particle ($\alpha=^4$He) can be divided into pairs of one neutron ($n$) and 3 nucleons in the triton ($t=^3$H), or 2 in the deuteron ($d=^2$H) and two neutrons in a dineutron ($^2n$). The…
We present a many-channel microscopic model that extends the three-cluster model previously formulated in \cite{2009NPA...V37}. This extended model incorporates multiple three-cluster configurations, which are subsequently reduced to a…
The structure of neutron-rich $\Lambda$ hypernucleus, $^7_{\Lambda}$He is studied within the framework of an $\alpha +\Lambda +n+n$ four-body cluster model. We predict second $3/2^+$ and $5/2^+$ states, corresponding to a $0s$ $\Lambda$…
We have localized several few-body resonances in light nuclei, using methods which can properly handle two- or three-body resonant states. Among other results, we predict the existence of a three-neutron resonance, small spin-orbit…

The presence of not yet detected intruder states in $^{8}Be$ e.g. a $J=2^{+}$ intruder at 9 $MeV$ excitation would affect the shape of the $\beta ^{\mp }$-delayed alpha spectra of $^{8}Li$ and $^{8}B$. In order to test the plausibility of…
The low lying states in $^8$Be are believed to have a two-alpha cluster structure and hence a large intrinsic quadrupole deformation. An earlier calculation showed a large collective enhancement in gamma transition probability between the…
