Do bound states exist?

J. Haidenbauer, Ulf-G. Meißner, S. Petschauer

The existence of baryon-baryon bound states in the strangeness sector is examined in the framework of SU(3) chiral effective field theory. Specifically, the role of SU(3) symmetry…

From asymmetric nuclear matter to neutron stars: a functional renormalization group study

Matthias Drews, Wolfram Weise

A previous study of nuclear matter in a chiral nucleon-meson model is extended to isospin-asymmetric matter. Fluctuations beyond mean-field approximation are treated in the framewo…

Derivative corrections to the symmetry energy and the isovector dipole-resonance structure in nuclei

J. P. Blocki, A. G. Magner, P. Ring

The effective surface approximation is extended accounting for derivatives of the symmetry energy density per particle. Using the analytical isovector surface energy constants with…

Chiral symmetry and effective field theories for hadronic, nuclear and stellar matter

Jeremy W. Holt, Mannque Rho, Wolfram Weise

Chiral symmetry, first entering in nuclear physics in the 1970's for which Gerry Brown played a seminal role, has led to a stunningly successful framework for describing strongly-c…

Peripheral nucleon-nucleon scattering at fifth order of chiral perturbation theory

D. R. Entem, N. Kaiser, R. Machleidt +1

We present the two- and three-pion exchange contributions to the nucleon-nucleon interaction which occur at next-to-next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N4LO, fifth order) of chi…

Systematic study of nuclear matrix elements in neutrinoless double-beta decay with a beyond mean-field covariant density functional theory

J. M. Yao, L. S. Song, K. Hagino +2

We report a systematic study of nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) in neutrinoless double-beta decays with a state-of-the-art beyond mean-field covariant density functional theory. The…

Particle-hole ring diagrams for fermions in two dimensions

N. Kaiser

The set of particle-hole ring diagrams for a many-fermion system in two dimensions is studied. The complex-valued polarization function is derived in detail and shown to be express…

reactions and structure of the

Shota Ohnishi, Yoichi Ikeda, Tetsuo Hyodo +2

We report on the first results of a full three-body calculation of the - amplitude for the reaction, and examine how the resonance ma…

Relativistic description of nuclear matrix elements in neutrinoless double- decay

L. S. Song, J. M. Yao, P. Ring +1

Neutrinoless double- () decay is related to many fundamental concepts in nuclear and particle physics beyond the standard model. Currently there are many experiments searc…

A microscopic benchmark-study of triaxiality in low-lying states of 76Kr

J. M. Yao, K. Hagino, Z. P. Li +2

We report on a seven-dimensional generator coordinate calculation in the two deformation parameters and together with projection on three-dimensional angular momentum and t…

Global performance of covariant energy density functionals: ground state observables of even-even nuclei and the estimate of theoretical uncertainties

S. E. Agbemava, A. V. Afanasjev, D. Ray +1

Covariant density functional theory (CDFT) is a modern theoretical tool for the description of nuclear structure phenomena. The current investigation aims at the global assessment…

Nuclear thermodynamics from chiral low-momentum interactions

Corbinian Wellenhofer, Jeremy W. Holt, Norbert Kaiser +1

We investigate the thermodynamic equation of state of isospin-symmetric nuclear matter with microscopic nuclear forces derived within the framework of chiral effective field theory…

A study of the parity-odd nucleon-nucleon potential

J. de Vries, N. Li, Ulf-G. Meißner +3

We investigate the parity-violating nucleon-nucleon potential as obtained in chiral effective field theory. By using resonance saturation we compare the chiral potential to the mor…

Functional renormalization group approach to neutron matter

Matthias Drews, Wolfram Weise

The chiral nucleon-meson model, previously applied to systems with equal number of neutrons and protons, is extended to asymmetric nuclear matter. Fluctuations are included in the…

DIRHB -- a relativistic self-consistent mean-field framework for atomic nuclei

T. Niksic, N. Paar, D. Vretenar +1

The DIRHB package consists of three Fortran computer codes for the calculation of the ground-state properties of even-even atomic nuclei using the framework of relativistic self-co…

Dense baryonic matter: constraints from recent neutron star observations

Thomas Hell, Wolfram Weise

Updated constraints from neutron star masses and radii impose stronger restrictions on the equation of state for baryonic matter at high densities and low temperatures. The existen…
