Differential cross sections for the electro-disintegration process $e + {^4He} longrightarrow {^3H}+ p + e$ are calculated, using a model in which the final state interaction is included by means of a nucleon-nucleus (3+1) potential constructed via Marchenko inversion. The required bound-state wave functions are calculated within the integrodifferential equation approach (IDEA). In our model the important condition that the initial bound state and the final scattering state are orthogonal is fulfilled. The sensitivity of the cross section to the input $p{^3H}$ interaction in certain kinematical regions is investigated. The approach adopted could be useful in reactions involving few cluster systems where effective interactions are not well known and exact methods are presently unavailable. Although, our Plane-Wave Impulse Approximation results exhibit, similarly to other calculations, a dip in the five-fold differential cross-section around a missing momentum of $sim 450 MeV/c$, it is argued that this is an artifact of the omission of re-scattering four-nucleon processes.

Recent studies of the electro-disintegration of the few body systems at JLab have revived the field. Not only recoil momentum distributions have been determined in a single shot. But also they confirm that the diagrammatic approach, which I developed 25 years ago, is relevant to analyze them, provided that the Nucleon-Nucleon scattering amplitude, determined in the same energy range, is used. They provide us with a solid starting point to address the issue of the propagation of exotic components of hadrons in nuclear matter
Four light-mass nuclei are considered by an effective two-body clusterisation method; $^6$Li as $^2$H$+^4$He, $^7$Li as $^3$H$+^4$He, $^7$Be as $^3$He$+^4$He, and $^8$Be as $^4$He$+^4$He. The low-energy spectrum of each is determined from single-channel Lippmann-Schwinger equations, as are low-energy elastic scattering cross sections for the $^2$H$+^4$He system. These are presented at many angles and energies for which there are data. While some of these systems may be more fully described by many-body theories, this work establishes that a large amount of data may be explained by these two-body clusterisations.
Realistic solutions of the spinor-spinor Bethe-Salpeter equation for the deuteron with realistic interaction kernel including the exchange of pi, sigma, omega, rho, eta and delta mesons, are used to systematically investigate relativistic effects in inclusive quasi-elastic electron-deuteron scattering within the relativistic impulse approximation. Relativistic y-scaling is considered by generalising the non relativistic scaling function to the relativistic case, and it is shown that y-scaling does occur in the usual relativistic scaling variable resulting from the energy conservation in the instant form of dynamics. The present approach of y-scaling is fully covariant, with the deuteron being described by eight components, viz. the 3S_1^{++}, 3S_1^{--}, 3D_1^{++}, 3D_1^{--}, 3P_1^{+-}, 3P_1^{-+}, 1P_1^{+-}, 1P_1^{-+} waves. It is demonstrated that if the negative relative energy states 1P_1, 3P_1 are disregarded, the concept of covariant momentum distributions N(p_0,p), with p_0=M_D/2-sqrt{p^2+m^2}, can be introduced, and that calculations of lectro-disintegration cross section in terms of these distributions agree within few percents with the exact calculations which include the 1P_1, 3P_1 states, provided the nucleon three momentum |p|<= 1 GeV/c; in this momentum range, the asymptotic relativistic scaling function is shown to coincide with the longitudinal covariant momentum distribution.
We investigate the effects of chiral three-nucleon force (3NF) on proton scattering at 65 MeV and $^{4}$He scattering at 72 MeV/nucleon from heavier targets, using the standard microscopic framework composed of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock (BHF) method and the $g$-matrix folding model. For nuclear matter, the $g$ matrix is evaluated from chiral two-nucleon force (2NF) of N$^{3}$LO and chiral 3NF of NNLO by using the BHF method. Since the $g$ matrix thus obtained is numerical and nonlocal, an optimum local form is determined from the on-shell and near-on-shell components of $g$ matrix that are important for elastic scattering. For elastic scattering, the optical potentials are calculated by folding the local chiral $g$ matrix with projectile and target densities. This microscopic framework reproduces the experimental data without introducing any adjustable parameter. Chiral-3NF effects are small for proton scattering, but sizable for $^{4}$He scattering at middle angles where the data are available. Chiral 3NF, mainly in the 2$pi$-exchange diagram, makes the folding potential less attractive and more absorptive for all the scattering.
Recent investigations suggest that the neutrino--heated hot bubble between the nascent neutron star and the overlying stellar mantle of a type--II supernova may be the site of the r--process. In the preceding $alpha$--process building up the elements to $A approx 100$, the $^4$He(2n,$gamma$)$^6$He-- and $^6$He($alpha$,n)$^9$Be--reactions bridging the instability gap at $A=5$ and $A=8$ could be of relevance. We suggest a mechanism for $^4$He(2n,$gamma$)$^6$He and calculate the reaction rate within the $alpha$+n+n approach. The value obtained is about a factor 1.6 smaller than the one obtained recently in the simpler direct--capture model, but is at least three order of magnitude enhanced compared to the previously adopted value. Our calculation confirms the result of the direct--capture calculation that under representative conditions in the $alpha$--process the reaction path proceeding through $^6$He is negligible compared to $^4$He($alpha$n,$gamma$)$^9$Be.
