Various calculations give contradictory predictions even for the lightest real nucleus $^3$He. In this paper we present the connection of the binding energy and width to the complex scattering length for heavier nuclei than this in the hope that, with knowledge of the final state interaction this could be useful in searches of possible bound states.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-02-13T10:30:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "13.60.Le", "14.40.Be", "24.10.Ht" ], "keywords": [ "light nuclei", "lightest real nucleus", "final state interaction", "etamesic nuclei remains", "bound states" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2013.02.009", "journal": "Nuclear Physics A", "year": 2013, "month": "Mar", "volume": 902, "pages": 40 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1122573, "adsabs": "2013NuPhA.902...40N" } } }
