The description of nuclei starting from the constituent nucleons and the realistic interactions among them has been a long-standing goal in nuclear physics. In addition to the complex nature of nuclear forces with two-nucleon, three-nucleon and possibly even four-nucleon components, one faces the quantum-mechanical many-nucleon problem governed by an interplay between bound and continuum...

Nucleosynthesis of light nuclei is an important problem in nuclear astrophysics. The radiative three-body capture processes, such as the triple alpha process, have been described traditionally as two-step sequential reactions. However, it has been shown in the recent years that the direct three-body recombination may play an important role in describing the reaction rates for the entire...

The structure of nuclei at and beyond the proton-drip line is very interesting as they show very attractive features such as halo structures, mirror symmetry breaking and narrow resonances in the continuum. In addition, they are important in the understanding of the rapid proton capture nucleosynthethic process (rp process). Knowledge of the nuclear properties in the light proton drip line...

The structure of 12C, and especially the nature of its excited
states above the three-alpha threshold, is still one of the most
actively investigated questions in nuclear physics.
In this talk we extend our previous studies of the Hoyle state
obtained in bound state approximation and focus on the structure of
the resonances and the continuum above the three-alpha threshold.
Results of...
