P Naidon, S Endo - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
This article reviews theoretical and experimental advances in Efimov physics, an array of
quantum few-body and many-body phenomena arising for particles interacting via short …

Modern theory of nuclear forces

E Epelbaum, HW Hammer, UG Meißner - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2009 - APS
Effective field theory allows for a systematic and model-independent derivation of the forces
between nucleons in harmony with the symmetries of quantum chromodynamics. The …

Universal aspects of light halo nuclei

T Frederico, A Delfino, L Tomio… - Progress in Particle and …, 2012 - Elsevier
The theoretical status on universal aspects of weakly-bound neutron-rich light nuclei are

Efimov states in nuclear and particle physics

HW Hammer, L Platter - Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle …, 2010 - annualreviews.org
Particles with resonant short-range interactions have universal properties that do not
depend on the details of their structure or their interactions at short distances. In the three …

nucleus in halo effective field theory

C Ji, C Elster, DR Phillips - Physical Review C, 2014 - APS
Background: In recent years properties of light rare isotopes have been measured with high
accuracy. At the same time, the theoretical description of light nuclei has made enormous …

Universal properties and structure of halo nuclei

DL Canham, HW Hammer - The European Physical Journal A, 2008 - Springer
The universal properties and structure of halo nuclei composed of two neutrons (2 n) and a
core are investigated within an effective quantum mechanics framework. We construct an …

Evolution of Efimov states

SM Dawid, MHE Islam, RA Briceño, AW Jackura - Physical Review A, 2024 - APS
The Efimov phenomenon manifests itself as an emergent discrete scaling symmetry in the
quantum three-body problem. In the unitarity limit, it leads to an infinite tower of three-body …

[HTML][HTML] Constraints on two-neutron separation energy in the Borromean 22C nucleus

MT Yamashita, RSM de Carvalho, T Frederico, L Tomio - Physics Letters B, 2011 - Elsevier
The recently extracted matter radius of carbon isotope 22C allows us to estimate the mean-
square distance of a halo neutron with respect to the center-of-mass of this nucleus. By …

Low-energy universality in atomic and nuclear physics

L Platter - Few-Body Systems, 2009 - Springer
An effective field theory developed for systems interacting through short-range interactions
can be applied to systems of cold atoms with a large scattering length and to nucleons at low …

Fate of the neutron–deuteron virtual state as an Efimov level

G Rupak, A Vaghani, R Higa, U van Kolck - Physics Letters B, 2019 - Elsevier
The emergence of Efimov levels in a three-body system is investigated near the unitarity limit
characterized by a resonant two-body interaction. No direct evidence of Efimov levels is …
