Resonances in Exotic $^7$He Nucleus within the No-Core Shell Model

Abstract

We present ab initio calculations of resonances for $^7$He, a nucleus with no bound states, using the realistic nucleon-nucleon interaction Daejeon16. For this, we evaluate the $n{-}{^6\rm He}$ elastic scattering phase shifts obtained within an $S$-matrix analysis of no-core shell model results for states in the continuum. We predict new broad resonances likely related to fragmentary experimental evidence.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figure
