TOPICAL REVIEW: Shell model in the complex energy plane
Abstract
This work reviews foundations and applications of the complex-energy continuum shell model that provides a consistent many-body description of bound states, resonances and scattering states. The model can be considered a quasi-stationary open quantum system extension of the standard configuration interaction approach for well-bound (closed) systems.
