Nucleon-nucleon interaction in the JJ-matrix inverse scattering approach and few-nucleon systems

The nucleon-nucleon interaction is constructed by means of the $J$-matrix version of inverse scattering theory. Ambiguities of the interaction are eliminated by postulating tridiagonal and quasi-tridiagonal forms of the potential matrix in the oscillator basis in uncoupled and coupled waves, respectively. The obtained interaction is very accurate in reproducing the $NN$ scattering data and deuteron properties. The interaction is used in the no-core shell model calculations of $^3$H and $^4$He nuclei. The resulting binding energies of $^3$H and $^4$He are very close to experimental values.Comment: Text is revised, new figures and references adde

Norm kernels and the closeness relation for Pauli-allowed basis functions

The norm kernel of the generator-coordinate method is shown to be a symmetric kernel of an integral equation with eigenfunctions defined in the Fock--Bargmann space and forming a complete set of orthonormalized states (classified with the use of SU(3) symmetry indices) satisfying the Pauli exclusion principle. This interpretation allows to develop a method which, even in the presence of the SU(3) degeneracy, provides for a consistent way to introduce additional quantum numbers for the classification of the basis states. In order to set the asymptotic boundary conditions for the expansion coefficients of a wave function in the SU(3) basis, a complementary basis of functions with partial angular momenta as good quantum numbers is needed. Norm kernels of the binary systems 6He+p, 6He+n, 6He+4He, and 8He+4He are considered in detail.Comment: 25 pages; submitted to Few-Body System

Algebraic Model for scattering in three-s-cluster systems. I. Theoretical Background

A framework to calculate two-particle matrix elements for fully antisymmetrized three-cluster configurations is presented. The theory is developed for a scattering situation described in terms of the Algebraic Model. This means that the nuclear many-particle state and its asymptotic behaviour are expanded in terms of oscillator states of the intra-cluster coordinates. The Generating Function technique is used to optimize the calculation of matrix elements. In order to derive the dynamical equations, a multichannel version of the Algebraic Model is presented.Comment: 20 pages, 1 postscript figure, submitted to Phys. Rev.

Phenomenological three-cluster model of 6^{6}He

By using the method of hyperspherical functions within the appropriate for this method K_{\min} approximation, the simple three-cluster model for description of the ground state and the continuous spectrum states of \6He is developed. It is shown that many properties of \6He (its large rms radius and large values of the matrix elements of electromagnetic transitions from the ground state into the continuous spectrum) follow from the fact that the potential energy of \6He system decreases very slowly (as \rho^{-3}) and the binding energy is small

Inverse scattering J-matrix approach to nucleon-nucleus scattering and the shell model

The $J$-matrix inverse scattering approach can be used as an alternative to a conventional $R$-matrix in analyzing scattering phase shifts and extracting resonance energies and widths from experimental data. A great advantage of the $J$-matrix is that it provides eigenstates directly related to the ones obtained in the shell model in a given model space and with a given value of the oscillator spacing $\hbar\Omega$. This relationship is of a particular interest in the cases when a many-body system does not have a resonant state or the resonance is broad and its energy can differ significantly from the shell model eigenstate. We discuss the $J$-matrix inverse scattering technique, extend it for the case of charged colliding particles and apply it to the analysis of $n\alpha$ and $p\alpha$ scattering. The results are compared with the No-core Shell Model calculations of $^5$He and $^5$Li.Comment: Some text is added following suggestions of a journal refere

NN potentials from inverse scattering in the J-matrix approach

An approximate inverse scattering method [7,8] has been used to construct separable potentials with the Laguerre form factors. As an application, we invert the phase shifts of proton-proton in the $^1S_0$ and $^3P_2-^3F_2$ channels and neutron-proton in the $^3S_1-^3D_1$ channel elastic scattering. In the latter case the deuteron wave function of a realistic $np$ potential was used as input.Comment: LaTex2e, 17 pages, 3 Postscript figures; corrected typo
