Course description
Nucleon-nucleon interaction, phase shift analysis, three-body forces. Nuclear scattering theory, two- and three-body scattering, multichannel scattering, polology, scattering theoretic description of nuclear reactions. Bound- and resonant states of few-nucleon systems, effective interactions. Numerical methods for the description of few-body systems. Applications: three-body resonances, neutron halo states, nuclear reactions with astrophysical importance.
