A method to calculate reactions in quantum mechanics is outlined. It is advantageous, in particular, in problems with many open channels of various nature i.e. when energy is not low. In the method there is no need to specify reaction channels in a dynamics calculation. These channels come into play at merely the kinematics level and only after a dynamics calculation is done. This calculation is of the bound--state type while continuum spectrum states never enter the game.

A procedure to solve few-body problems is developed which is based on an expansion over a small parameter. The parameter is the ratio of potential energy to kinetic energy for states having not small hyperspherical quantum numbers, K>K_0. Dynamic equations are reduced perturbatively to equations in the finite-dimension subspace with Kle K_0. Contributions from states with K>K_0 are taken into account in a closed form, i.e. without an expansion over basis functions. Estimates on efficiency of the approach are presented.
A current interest in nuclear reactions, specifically with rare isotopes concentrates on their reaction with neutrons, in particular neutron capture. In order to facilitate reactions with neutrons one must use indirect methods using deuterons as beam or target of choice. For adding neutrons, the most common reaction is the (d,p) reaction, in which the deuteron breaks up and the neutron is captured by the nucleus. Those (d,p) reactions may be viewed as a three-body problem in a many-body context. This contribution reports on a feasibility study for describing phenomenological nucleon-nucleus optical potentials in momentum space in a separable form, so that they may be used for Faddeev calculations of (d,p) reactions.
The method of integral transforms is reviewed. In the framework of this method reaction observables are obtained with the bound--state calculation techniques. New developments are reported.
A new framework for $A(d,p)B$ reactions is introduced by merging the microscopic approach to computing the properties of the nucleon-target systems and the three-body $n+p+A$ reaction formalism, thus providing a consistent link between the reaction cross sections and the underlying microscopic structure. In this first step toward a full microscopic description, we focus on the inclusion of the neutron-target microscopic properties. The properties of the neutron-target subsystem are encapsulated in the Greens function which is computed with the Coupled Cluster theory using a chiral nucleon-nucleon and three-nucleon interactions. Subsequently, this many-body information is introduced in the few-body Greens Function Transfer approach to $(d,p)$ reactions. Our benchmarks on stable targets $^{40,48}$Ca show an excellent agreement with the data. We then proceed to make specific predictions for $(d,p)$ on neutron rich $^{52,54}$Ca isotopes. These predictions are directly relevant to testing the new magic numbers $N=32,34$ and are expected to be feasible in the first campaign of the projected FRIB facility.
We consider the applications of functional renormalisation group to few and many-body systems. As an application to the few-body dynamics we study the ratio between the fermion-fermion scattering length and the dimer-dimer scattering length for systems of few nonrelativistic fermions. We find a strong dependence on the cutoff function used in the renormalisation flow for a two-body truncation of the action. Adding a simple three-body term substantially reduces this dependence. In the context of many-body physics we study the dynamics of both symmetric and asymmetric many-fermion systems using the same functional renormalisation technique. It is demonstrated that functional renormalisation group gives sensible and reliable results and provides a solid theoretical ground for the future studies. Open questions as well as lines of further developments are discussed.
