Is the unusual near-threshold potential behavior in elastic scattering of weakly bound nuclei a precision error?

Rodrigo Navarro Pérez, Jin Lei

We present the first example of a rigorous uncertainty quantification on elastic Nucleus-Nucleus scattering at energies near the Coulomb barrier. Experimental data has been analyze…

Simultaneous Fitting of Neutron Star Structure and Cooling Data

Spencer Beloin, Sophia Han, Andrew W. Steiner +1

Using a model for the equation of state and composition of dense matter and the magnitude of singlet proton superconductivity and triplet neutron superfluidity, we perform the firs…

Can magnetic fields stabilize or destabilize twin stars?

R. O. Gomes, V. Dexheimer, S. Han +1

Sharp phase transitions described by stiff equations of state allow for the existence of a third family of stable compact stars (besides white dwarfs and neutron stars), twin stars…

Ab initio Folding Potentials for Nucleon-Nucleus Scattering based on NCSM One-Body Densities

M. Burrows, Ch. Elster, S. P. Weppner +4

Calculating microscopic optical potentials for elastic nucleon-nucleus scattering has already led to large body of work in the past. For folding first-order calculations the nucleo…

Tidal deformability with sharp phase transitions in (binary) neutron stars

Sophia Han, Andrew W. Steiner

The neutron star tidal deformability is a critical parameter which determines the pre-merger gravitational-wave signal in a neutron star merger. In this article, we show how neutro…

Few-body universality in the deuteron-alpha system

Jin Lei, L. Hlophe, Ch. Elster +3

We treat Li as an effective three-body (--) system and compute the - wave scattering length and three-body separation energy of Li for a wide variety…

Exploring Bayesian parameter estimation for chiral effective field theory using nucleon-nucleon phase shifts

S. Wesolowski, R. J. Furnstahl, J. A. Melendez +1

We recently developed a Bayesian framework for parameter estimation in general effective field theories. Here we present selected results from using that framework to estimate para…

Dissecting reaction calculations using Halo EFT and ab initio input

P. Capel, D. R. Phillips, H. -W. Hammer

We present a description of the break-up of halo nuclei in peripheral nuclear reactions by coupling a model of the projectile motivated by Halo Effective Field Theory with a fully…

Erratum: Investigating Neutron Polarizabilities through Compton Scattering on He

Deepshikha Shukla, Andreas Nogga, Daniel R. Phillips

We provide updated predictions for elastic γHe cross sections and asymmetries that correct erroneous results we published in Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 232303 (2007) and Nucl. Phys…

Elastic Compton Scattering from 3He and the Role of the Delta

Arman Margaryan, Bruno Strandberg, Harald W. Griesshammer +3

We report observables for elastic Compton scattering from He in Chiral Effective Field Theory with an explicit degree of freedom (EFT) for energies between 50 and…

Microscopically-based energy density functionals for nuclei using the density matrix expansion: Full optimization and validation

R. Navarro Perez, N. Schunck, A. Dyhdalo +2

We seek to obtain a usable form of the nuclear energy density functional that is rooted in the modern theory of nuclear forces. We thus consider a functional obtained from the dens…
