• Virial expansion coefficients in the unitary Fermi gas

  Shimpei Endo

  SciPost Phys. Proc. 3, 049 (2020) · published 27 February 2020 | Toggle abstract · pdf

  Virial expansion is widely used in cold atoms to analyze high temperature strongly correlated many-body systems. As the n-th order virial expansion coefficient can be accurately obtained by exactly solving up to n-body problems, the virial expansion offers a few-body approach to study strongly correlated many-body problems. In particular, the virial expansion has successfully been applied to unitary Fermi gas. We review recent progress of the virial expansion studies in the unitary Fermi gas, in particular the fourth order virial coefficient.

• Study of light nuclei by polarization observables in electron scattering

  Simon Širca

  SciPost Phys. Proc. 3, 048 (2020) · published 27 February 2020 | Toggle abstract · pdf

  Electron-induced proton, neutron and deuteron knock-out remains the most versatile probe of the electro-magnetic properties and spin structure of light nuclei. The advent of highly polarized beams and targets and improvements in recoil polarization methods, as well as analysis and simulation techniques, have enabled us to study the static and dynamical properties of few-body systems with unprecedented precision. Recent experiments at Jefferson Lab and MAMI are presented and put into perspective of state-of-the art Faddeev calculations, with focus on the $^\mathbf{3}\mathbf{He}$ nucleus.

• A time-dependent Hartree-Fock study of triple-alpha dynamics

  Paul D. Stevenson, J. L. Willerton

  SciPost Phys. Proc. 3, 047 (2020) · published 27 February 2020 | Toggle abstract · pdf

  Time-dependent Hartree-Fock calculations have been performed for fusion reactions of He-4 + He-4 -> Be*-8, followed by He-4 + Be*-8 . Depending on the orientation of the initial state, a linear chain vibrational state or a triangular vibration is found in 12C, with transitions between these states observed. The vibrations of the linear chain state and the triangular state occur at ~9 and 4 MeV respectively.

• Three-nucleon force effects in the FSI configuration of the d(n, nn)p breakup reaction

  Hiroyuki Kamada, Henryk Witała, Jacek Golak, Roman Skibiński

  SciPost Phys. Proc. 3, 046 (2020) · published 27 February 2020 | Toggle abstract · pdf

  We investigated three-nucleon (3N) force effects in the final state interaction (FSI) configuration of the d(n, nn)p breakup reaction at the incoming nucleon energy E n = 200 MeV. Although 3N force effects for the elastic nucleon-deuteron scattering cross section at comparable energies are located predominantly in the region of intermediate and backward angles, the corresponding 3N force effects for the integrated FSI configuration breakup cross section are found also at forward scattering angles.

• QED in the clothed-particle representation: a fresh look at positronium properties treatment

  Yan A. Kostylenko, Adam M. Arslanaliev, Aleksandr V. Shebeko

  SciPost Phys. Proc. 3, 045 (2020) · published 27 February 2020 | Toggle abstract · pdf

  We have extended our previous applications of the method of unitary clothing transformations (UCTs) in mesodynamics [1, 2] to quantum electrodynamics (QED) [3, 4]. An analytical expression for the QED Hamiltonian in the clothed-particle representation (CPR) has been derived. Its distinctive feature is the appearance of a new family of the Hermitian and energy independent interaction operators built up in the e^2-order for the clothed electrons and positrons instead the primary canonical interaction between electromagnetic and electron-positron fields. The problem of describing the bound states in QED in case of the positronium system has been considered. The first correction to the energy of the ground state of the para-positronium and its decay rate to two photons has been calculated by using the new interaction operators.

• Particle representation for $NN{\bar K}$ system

  Branislav Vlahovic, Igor Filikhin, Roman Ya. Kezarashvili

  SciPost Phys. Proc. 3, 044 (2020) · published 27 February 2020 | Toggle abstract · pdf

  In the framework of the Faddeev equations in configuration space we perform an analysis of quasi-bound state of the $NN{\bar K}$ system within a particle model. In our approach, the system $NN{\bar K}(s_{NN}=0)$ ($NN{\bar K}(s_{NN}=1))$ is described as a superposition of $ppK^{-}$ and $pn{\bar K}^0$ ($nn{\bar K}^{0}$ and $pn{ K}^-$) states, which is possible due to a particle transition. The relation of the particle model to the theory of a two-state quantum system is addressed and discussed taking into account the possibilities of deep and shallow $NN{\bar K}(s_{NN}=0)$ quasi-bound states.

• Calculation of asymptotic normalization coefficients in the complex-ranged Gaussian basis

  Dinmukhamed A. Sailaubek, Olga A. Rubtsova

  SciPost Phys. Proc. 3, 043 (2020) · published 27 February 2020 | Toggle abstract · pdf

  A new technique towards finding asymptotic normalization coefficients in the complex-ranged Gaussian basis is presented. It is shown that a diagonalisation procedure for the total Hamiltonian matrix in the given basis results in approximation for a radial part of the bound state wave function from the origin up to the far asymptotic distances, which allows to extract ANCs rather accurately. The method is illustrated by calculations of single-particle ANCs for nuclei bound states in cases of non-local nucleon-nucleus interactions, in particular, phenomenological global potentials with the Perey-Buck's non-locality.

• An accurate allowance for initial and final state interactions in the treatment of the alpha-alpha Bremsstrahlung

  Adam M. Arslanaliev, Aleksandr V. Shebeko

  SciPost Phys. Proc. 3, 042 (2020) · published 27 February 2020 | Toggle abstract · pdf

  The alpha-alpha bremsstrahlung is studied using the generalization of the Siegert theorem. The corresponding amplitude is written in the gauge invariant form. Special attention is paid to taking into account the Coulomb interaction. Some correlation function is found and its dependence on the strong interaction is discussed.

  The paper is devoted to the $\bar{K}NNN$ system, consisting of an antikaon and three nucleons. Four-body Faddeev-type AGS equations are being solved in order to find possible quasi-bound state in the system.

• Effect of isospin averaging for $ppK^-$ kaonic cluster

  Branislav Vlahovic, Igor Filikhin

  SciPost Phys. Proc. 3, 040 (2020) · published 27 February 2020 | Toggle abstract · pdf

  The kaonic cluster $ppK^-$ is described by isospin-dependent $N{\bar K}$ potentials with significant difference between singlet and triplet components. The quasi-bound state energy of the system is calculated based on the configuration space Faddeev equations within isospin and averaged potential models. The isospin averaging of $ N{\bar K} $ potentials is used to simplify the isospin model to isospinless one. We show that three-body bound state energy $E_{3}$ has a lower bound within the isospin formalism due to relation $\left\vert E_{3}(V_{NN}=0)\right\vert<2\left\vert E_{2}\right\vert$, where $E_{2}$ is the binding energy of isospin singlet state of the $N{\bar K}$ subsystem. The averaged potential model demonstrates opposite relation between $|E_{2}|$ and $|E_{3}(V_{NN}=0)|$.
