Recent advances in chiral EFT based nuclear forces and their applications
Ruprecht Machleidt, Francesca Sammarruca
During the past two decades, chiral effective field theory has evolved into a powerful tool to derive nuclear forces from first principles. Nearly all two-nucleon interactions have…
What is ab initio?
R. Machleidt
Microscopic nuclear theory is based on the tenet that atomic nuclei can be accurately described as collections of point-like nucleons interacting via two- and many-body forces obey…
Local position-space two-nucleon potentials from leading to fourth order of chiral effective field theory
S. K. Saha, D. R. Entem, R. Machleidt +1
We present local, position-space chiral NN potentials through four orders of chiral effective field theory ranging from leading order (LO) to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order…
Elastic proton scattering off non-zero spin nuclei
Matteo Vorabbi, Michael Gennari, Paolo Finelli +3
In recent years, we constructed a microscopic optical potential (OP) for elastic nucleon-nucleus () scattering using modern approaches based on chiral theories for the nucleon-…
Nucleon-nucleon potentials from Delta-full chiral effective-field-theory and implications
Y. Nosyk, D. R. Entem, R. Machleidt
We closely investigate NN potentials based upon the Delta-full version of chiral effective field theory. We find that recently constructed NN potentials of this kind, which (when a…
Weinberg's proposal of 1990: A very personal view
R. Machleidt
My personal encounter with Weinberg's proposal of 1990 was a really entertaining one: My collaborator David Entem and I had embarked to show that Weinberg's idea, though smart and…
