Abstract
The deuteron, the only two-nucleon bound state, has a shallow character: its binding energy is strictly related to zero-energy parameters, the triplet scattering length 3anp and triplet effective range 3rnp. This fact places the deuteron inside the universal window, a region in which systems having a large value of the two- body scattering length are located. When the scattering length is large compared to the interaction range certain types of correlations can be observed. Increasing the number of nucleons these correlations are responsible for the particular spectrum of light nuclei as for example the lack of excited states in three- and four-nucleon systems. In this presentation some constraints imposed by the large values of the singlet and triplet scattering lengths in the spectrum of light nuclear systems are discussed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
