Non-local orbital-free density functional theory incorporating nuclear shell effects
Xinhui Wu, Gianluca Colò, Kouichi Hagino +1
Incorporating nuclear shell effects within the framework of orbital-free density functional theory (DFT) has remained a longstanding challenge in nuclear physics. While the Hohenbe…
Mirror-skin thickness: a possible observable sensitive to the charge symmetry breaking energy density functional

QED corrections to the parity-violating asymmetry in high-energy electron-nucleus collisions
Xavier Roca-Maza, D H. Jakubassa-Amundsen
The parity-violating asymmetry, including leading-order QED corrections to the Coulomb potential, is calculated non-perturbatively by solving the Dirac equation. At GeV collision e…
