Electromagnetic processes in light nuclei: Results within a microscopic approach

Results obtained by investigating the electrodisintegration of A = 3 and 4 nuclei and the photodisintegration of A = 3, 4, 6, and 7 nuclei on the basis of precise solutions to dynamical problems involving NN and NNN forces are presented. The role of NNN forces, final-state relativistic effects, the contribution of meson-exchange currents, an anomaly in electrodisintegration at high momentum transfers and low energy transfers, sensitivity to nuclear dynamics in the exclusive electrodisintegration of ⁴He nuclei, and the soft-mode resonance in the photodisintegration of ⁶He nuclei are considered.
