4 Theory needed because fusion reactions are difficult or impossible to measure at astrophysical energies The nuclear fusion process operates mainly by tunneling through the Coulomb barrier 3 He+ 4 Heà 7 Be+γ Extremely low rates ( ) = S(E) σ E E exp " 2π Z Z % 1 2 $ e2 ' # 2mE & Projectiles and targets are not fully ionized 3 He+ 3 Heà 4 He+2p Electron screening can mask bare nuclear cross section Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory LLNL- PRES
5 Developing such a fundamental theory is extremely complicated and a longstanding goal of nuclear theory Ab initio many-body calculations: A (all active) point-like nucleons proton neutron quark Nuclear two- and three-body (NN+NNN) forces guided by Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) A nucleons Unitary transformation to soften bare Hamiltonian: e.g., Similarity Renormalization Group (SRG) Efficient theoretical framework and!

28 Conclusions We are building an efficient ab initio theory including the continuum NCSM eigenstates à short- to medium-range A-body structure NCSM/RGM cluster states à scattering physics of the system We map the many-body problem into a few-cluster problem The Pauli exclusion principle is treated exactly Inter-cluster interactions arise from underlying nuclear Hamiltonian First ab initio description of three-cluster dynamics 4 He+n+n bound and continuum states Good qualitative description of the low-lying spectrum of 6 He Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory LLNL- PRES
29 Outlook For a complete picture we need to: Run calculations with NNN forces (codes are ready) Introduce core excitations by coupling to NCSM A-body eigenstates Future applications of three-cluster formalism Calculations of radii, electric dipole transitions Other systems: 5 H ( 3 H+n+n), 11 Li (= 9 Li+n+n), 12 Be(= 10 Be+n+n) Ultimate goal: binary & ternary light-nucleus fusion reactions Transfer reactions: 3 H( 3 H,2n) 4 He Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory LLNL- PRES
