The complex energies of the three-body resonances for one infinitely heavy particle and two non-interacting light particles are the sum of the two contributing two-body complex resonance energies. The bound state of a Borromean system…
The current understanding of particle masses in terms of quarks and their binding energy is not satisfactory. Both in atoms and in nuclei the organizing principle of stability is the shell structure, while this does not seem to play any…
We study the stability of the hydrogen molecule interacting with the environment according to the balanced gain and loss energy scheme. We determined the properties of the molecule taking into account all electronic interactions, where the…
We study the stability problem for a non-relativistic quantum system in dimension three composed by $ N \geq 2 $ identical fermions, with unit mass, interacting with a different particle, with mass $ m $, via a zero-range interaction of…
A hexagonal structure of solid molecular hydrogen with $P6_122$ symmetry is calculated to be more stable below about 200 GPa than the monoclinic $C2/c$ structure identified previously as the best candidate for phase III. We find that the…
In nuclear physics, triton and helium-3 nucleus can be understood as three-body hadronic molecules. Analogous to the loosely bound structures for the triton and helium-3 nucleus, whether there is a bound state formed by three hadrons leaves…
We examine the behaviour of hydrogen ions, atoms and molecules in alpha-boron using density functional calculations. Hydrogen behaves as a negative-U centre, with positive H ions preferring to sit off-center on inter-layer bonds and…
Quantum droplets are ultradilute liquid states which emerge from the competitive interplay of two Hamiltonian terms, the mean-field energy and beyond-mean-field correction, in a weakly interacting binary Bose gas. We relate the formation of…
The energies at geometries close to the equilibrium for the e$^+$BeO and e$^+$LiF ground states were computed by means of diffusion Monte Carlo simulations. These results allow us to predict the equilibrium geometries and the vibrational…
Being the simplest element with just one electron and proton the electronic structure of the Hydrogen atom is known exactly. However, this does not hold for the complex interplay between them in a solid and in particular not at high…
The results of the study of unstable states in relativistic dissociation of isotopes $^{9,7}$Be, $^{10}$B, $^{12,11,10}$C, $^{14}$N and $^{16}$O in nuclear emulsion have been summarized. Their decays are identified in distributions by…
Based on the results of accurate variational calculations we demonstrate stability of the five-body negatively charged ions $a^{+} b^{+} \mu^{-} e^{-} e^{-}$. Each of these five-body ions contains two electrons $e^{-}$, one negatively…
We show that bimodal systems with a spatially nonuniform defocusing cubic nonlinearity, whose strength grows toward the periphery, can support stable two-component solitons. For a sufficiently strong XPM interaction, vector solitons with…
Mixing two kinds of particles that repel each other usually results in either a homogeneous mixture when the repulsion is weak, or a complete phase separation of the two kinds when their repulsion is too strong. It is shown however that…
Self-bound many-body systems are formed through a balance of attractive and repulsive forces and occur in many physical scenarios. Liquid droplets are an example of a self-bound system, formed by a balance of the mutual attractive and…
We consider two-component solitons in a medium with a periodic modulation of the nonlinear coefficient. The modulation enables the existence of complex multihump vector states. In particular, vector solitons composed of dipole and…
The crystals of potassium hydrogen carbonate (KHCO3) and the KDCO3 analogue are isomorphous. They are composed of hydrogen or deuterium bonded centrosymmetric dimers (HCO3-)(2) or (DCO3-)(2). The space group symmetry of KHpD1-pCO3 (p…
The molecule-like structure of the C isotopes (A=12, 14, 16) is investigated using a microscopic $\alpha+\alpha+\alpha+n+n+\cdot \cdot \cdot$ model. The valence neutrons are classified based on the molecular-orbit (MO) model, and both…
The electronic structure of the hydrogen molecule is investigated for the parallel configuration. The ground states of the Sigma manifold are studied for ungerade and gerade parity as well as singlet and triplet states covering a broad…
Theoretical investigations of the hyperfine structure of the hydrogen molecular ion (one electron and two protons) are discussed. The nuclear spin-rotation interaction has been found to be of the same sign as in the hydrogen molecule and…
