Beyond-mean-field approaches for nuclear neutrinoless double beta decay in the standard mechanism

JM Yao, J Meng, YF Niu, P Ring - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2022 - Elsevier
Nuclear weak decays provide important probes to fundamental symmetries in nature. A
precise description of these processes in atomic nuclei requires comprehensive knowledge …

Ab initio predictions link the neutron skin of 208Pb to nuclear forces

B Hu, W Jiang, T Miyagi, Z Sun, A Ekström, C Forssén… - Nature Physics, 2022 - nature.com
Heavy atomic nuclei have an excess of neutrons over protons, which leads to the formation
of a neutron skin whose thickness is sensitive to details of the nuclear force. This links …

Converged ab initio calculations of heavy nuclei

T Miyagi, SR Stroberg, P Navrátil, K Hebeler, JD Holt - Physical Review C, 2022 - APS
We propose a novel storage scheme for three-nucleon (3N) interaction matrix elements
relevant for the normal-ordered two-body approximation used extensively in ab initio …

Nuclear Charge Radii of the Nickel Isotopes

S Malbrunot-Ettenauer, S Kaufmann, S Bacca… - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
Collinear laser spectroscopy is performed on the nickel isotopes Ni 58-68, 70, using a time-
resolved photon counting system. From the measured isotope shifts, nuclear charge radii R …

Optical potentials for the rare-isotope beam era

C Hebborn, FM Nunes, G Potel… - Journal of Physics G …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org

[HTML][HTML] Ab initio computations from 78Ni towards 70Ca along neutron number N= 50

BS Hu, ZH Sun, G Hagen, GR Jansen, T Papenbrock - Physics Letters B, 2024 - Elsevier
We present coupled-cluster computations of nuclei with neutron number N= 50 “south” of 78
Ni using nucleon-nucleon and three-nucleon forces from chiral effective field theory. We find …

Factorized approximation to the in-medium similarity renormalization group IMSRG (3)

BC He, SR Stroberg - Physical Review C, 2024 - APS
We describe an approximation to the in-medium similarity renormalization group (IMSRG)
method in which we include the effects of intermediate three-body operators arising within …

Combining the in-medium similarity renormalization group with the density matrix renormalization group: Shell structure and information entropy
