Abstract

Effects of tensor interactions in nucleus are discussed from the experimental view points. Two recent studies, one is the mixing of s- and p- waves in 11Li halo and the other is the high momentum component in the nucleon wave function from a transfer reaction. Preliminary results of 16O(p,d)15O reaction show an abnormal relative enhancement of the transition to the positive parity state of 15O, which is not a hole state, consistent with contents of high momentum nucleon expected from the tensor interactions. The importance of the inclusion of tensor force, that can not be described in the mean field model, is discussed.
