We analyze the data on cross sections and asymmetries for the $pd (dp) \to \eta ^3{\rm He}$ reaction close to threshold and look for bound states of the $\eta ^3 {\rm He}$ system. Rather than parameterizing the scattering matrix, as is…
In a recent paper by the TAPS collaboration \cite{exp} a first measurement of a bound system of an $\eta$ meson and a ${^3}$He nucleus was reported. In this comment we critically reexamine the interpretation of the data and show that the…
A detailed study of the effect of the $\eta$-nucleus final state interaction (FSI) in the $p d \to ^3$He$ \eta$ reaction close to threshold is presented. The FSI is incorporated through a T-matrix for $\eta ^3$He elastic scattering,…
We report the first results from a new approach for measuring the $^3$He neutron incoherent scattering length $b_{i}$. $b_{i}$ is directly proportional to the difference $\Delta b=b_{+}-b_{-}$ in the two low-energy s-wave neutron-nucleus…
We have studied the reaction $p+{^{27}Al}\to {^3{He}}+p+\pi^-+X$ at recoil-free kinematics. An $\eta$ meson possibly produced in this reaction would be thus almost at rest in the laboratory system and could therefore be bound with high…
The existence of etamesic nuclei has been speculated for a long time without firm experimental evidence. Much of the effort has taken place in final state interactions on production. One crucial factor in seeing a quasibound state is its…
The excitation function for the $pd\rightarrow$ $d p \pi^{0}$ reaction has been measured by WASA-at-COSY experiment with the aim of searching for $^{3}\hspace{-0.03cm}\mbox{He}$-$\eta$ mesic nuclei. The measurement in the vicinity of $\eta$…
Due to its dominance in the low energy eta-nucleon interaction, the S11 N$^*$(1535) resonance enters as an important ingredient in the analyses of experiments aimed at finding evidence for the existence of eta-mesic nuclei. The static…
Formation of eta-mesic nucleus, a bound state of an eta meson in a nucleus, is reviewed in this paper. Three different theoretical approaches are used to calculate the binding energies and widths of such nuclei. The effect of eta-mesic…
A study of the $\eta$-3N interaction in the energy region near the $\eta$-^3H elastic scattering threshold is presented. The calculational scheme is based on the four-body scattering formalism. A manageable form of the integral equations is…
In this contribution we report on theoretical studies of $\eta$ nuclear quasi-bound states in few- and many-body systems performed recently by the Jerusalem-Prague Collaboration [1-5]. Underlying energy-dependent $\eta N$ interactions are…
The coupled eta-N, pi-N, gamma-N, 2pi-N system is described by a K-matrix method. The parameters in this model are adjusted to get an optimal fit to pi-N-->pi-N, pi-N-->eta-N, gamma-N-->pi-N and gamma-N-->eta-N data in an energy range of…
Microscopic calculations of four-body collisions become very challenging in the energy regime above the threshold for four free particles. The neutron-${}^3$He scattering is an example of such process with elastic, rearrangement, and…
We propose a novel method to measure the neutron-neutron scattering length using the $^{6}$He$(p,p\alpha)nn$ reaction in inverse kinematics at high energies. The method is based on the final state interaction (FSI) between the neutrons…
The $\eta$ mesic nucleus is considered to be one of the interesting exotic many body systems and has been studied since 1980's theoretically and experimentally. Recently, the formation of the $\eta$ mesic nucleus in the fusion reactions of…
We demonstrate that one can use the occurrence of charge symmetry breaking as a tool to explore the eta--nucleus interaction near the eta threshold. Based on indications that the cross section ratio of pi+ and pi0 production on nuclei…
We report the first measurement of the low-energy neutron-$^3$He incoherent scattering length using neutron interferometry: $b_i' = (-2.512\pm 0.012{statistical}\pm0.014{systematic})$ fm. This is in good agreement with a recent calculation…
The connection of the binding energy and width of possible bound eta-mesic states is given to the complex scattering length for s-states in the hope that, with knowledge of the final state interaction this could be useful in searches of…
It is argued that the strong energy dependence of the $p\, d \rightarrow \,^{3\!}H\!e\, \eta$ cross section near threshold is due to a final state interaction between the $\eta$ meson and the $^3$He nucleus. The large scattering length that…
We investigate theoretically whether it is feasible to detect $\eta$- and $\omega$-nucleus bound states. As well as the closed shell nuclei, $^{16}$O, $^{40}$Ca, $^{90}$Zr and $^{208}$Pb, we also investigate $^6$He, $^{11}$B and $^{26}$Mg,…
