Abstract

We present a universal femtoscopic method to extract the source size and central-force interaction parameters for arbitrary partial waves from experimental data, with the interaction parameters defined in the effective-range expansion. The method is based on the Wronskian determinant and is applicable to both the Coulomb and non-Coulomb cases. This approach is numerically verified against simulated neutron-neutron and proton-proton correlation data obtained from the Reid potential.

$^6$He structure from semiclassical 3D models based on $\textit{ab initio}$ spatial correlations

We construct semiclassical 3D models based on $\textit{ab initio}$ no-core shell model calculated two-body spatial correlations, which represent the preferred spatial configuration of nucleons for the ground state of $^6$He. We demonstrate that the presence of the two valence neutrons distorts and flattens the $α$ core in $^6$He, marking a clear departure from the tetrahedral configuration of free $^4$He, and that the two valence neutrons and the center of mass of the $α$ cluster ($α$-CM) are roughly located at the three distinct vertices of an equilateral triangle. We compute the geometric parameters that commonly characterize $^6$He structure, 1) $θ_{nn}$, the opening angle of the two valence neutrons with respect to $α$-CM, and 2) $r_{nn}$, the root-mean-square separation between the two valence neutrons. Refining the model with uncertainty estimation, we obtain $θ_{nn}= 58.5^{+5.4}_{-6.2}$ degrees and $r_{nn}= 4.12^{+0.37}_{-0.43}$ fm, agreeing with those calculated via a phenomenologically modified continuum-discretized coupled-channels method, while an interferometry experiment obtained a marginally higher $r_{nn}$.

ECC3: a global model for evaporation residue cross sections in the synthesis of superheavy nuclei

We present ECC3, an efficient model for evaporation residue (ER) cross sections in heavy-ion fusion reactions from light systems to superheavy-element synthesis. The ER cross section is factorized into capture, described by the universal empirical coupled channel (ECC2) model; compound-nucleus formation, given by the Zagrebaev-Greiner empirical Fermi function of the charge product; and survival against fission, obtained from a simplified HIVAP-type statistical-decay cascade. The capture sector is inherited unchanged from ECC2 and reproduces 348 measured capture excitation functions with a logarithmic RMSD of 0.29. A single set of model parameters for the formation and survival of compound nuclei is fitted to 60 measured ER excitation functions with the corresponding RMSD of 0.27. About 95\% of both the capture and ER systems are reproduced within a factor of four. Because the fitted parameters are constrained by light, medium-mass and superheavy systems rather than anchored to the measured superheavy region, extrapolation to unmeasured reactions is well controlled. The model also resolves the individual $xn$ channels. It reproduces the measured $3n$--$5n$ excitation functions of $^{19}$F+$^{188}$Os and the systematic charge dependence of the maximal channel cross section for $^{48}$Ca-, $^{50}$Ti- and $^{54}$Cr-induced reactions. For the three element-119 reactions $^{50}$Ti+$^{249}$Bk, $^{54}$Cr+$^{243}$Am and $^{51}$V+$^{248}$Cm, it predicts $4n$ dominance, with maximum cross sections of 13.2 fb, 2.64 fb and 1.56 fb, respectively.

Zemach radii and nuclear structure effects in hyperfine splitting of lithium isotopes

Nuclear structure effects are essential for describing hyperfine splittings from high-precision atomic spectroscopy measurements. These effects are often parametrized by the effective or elastic Zemach radii, with their difference being poorly understood. We show that the long-standing discrepancy between the effective and elastic Zemach radii in $^6$Li and $^7$Li could be resolved by taking into account nuclear polarizability effects in \emph{ab initio} nuclear structure calculations. Our results demonstrate that nuclear polarizability effects, negligible in ${}^7$Li, dominate in ${}^6$Li and explain the observed significant deviation between the effective and elastic Zemach radii. Furthermore, we show that the ratios between the nuclear polarizability contributions in different nuclei are universal in the limit of closure and SU(4) symmetry of nuclear forces. In particular, the nuclear polarizability contribution in an odd-odd nucleus is enhanced by a factor of $μ_p/(μ_p+μ_n)\simeq 3$, with $μ_{n,p}$ denoting the nucleon magnetic moments, compared to its odd-$A$ isotopes. The same mechanism also explains the Zemach radius deviations observed in ${}^2$H and ${}^3$He. These findings establish nuclear polarizability as the dominant source of isotope-dependent nuclear corrections to hyperfine splitting in light atoms.
