We perform no-core configuration interaction calculations for nuclei in the p-shell. We show that for typical light nuclei, a truncation on the total number of quanta in the many-body system converges much more rapidly than a full…
Precision measurements were carried out to test the similarities between the ground states of 76Ge and 76Se. The extent to which these two nuclei can be characterized as consisting of correlated pairs of neutrons in a BCS-like ground state…
The ground state and low-lying continuum states of 6He are found within a shell model scheme, in a basis of two-particle states built out of continuum p-states of the unbound 5He nucleus, using a simple pairing contact-delta interaction.…
The structure of $^{26}$O is currently being investigated on both theoretical and experimental fronts. It is well established that it is unbound and the resonance parameters are fairly well-known. The theoretical analysis may involved two-…
We explore the structure of the ground state of $^{20}$Ne by investigating various density profiles. Four candidates for the ground state configurations, (a) $j$-$j$ coupling and (b) SU(3) shell model and (c) $5\alpha$ and (d) $^{16}{\rm…
Consistent description of 12C and 16O has been a long standing problem of microscopic alpha cluster models, where the wave function is fully antisymmetrized and the effective interaction is applied not between alpha clusters but between…
