Ab Initio Prediction of the Big Bang Radiative Capture

C Hebborn, G Hupin, K Kravvaris, S Quaglioni… - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
The rate at which helium (He 4) and deuterium (d) fuse together to produce lithium-6 (Li 6)
and a γ ray, He 4 (d, γ) Li 6, is a critical puzzle piece in resolving the discrepancy between …

Uncertainty quantification in breakup reactions

Ö Sürer, FM Nunes, M Plumlee, SM Wild - Physical Review C, 2022 - APS
Breakup reactions are one of the favored probes to study loosely bound nuclei, particularly
those in the limit of stability forming a halo. In order to interpret such breakup experiments …
